Electricians Services
What do sockets and switches installation services include?
Trained and certified electricians work on socket and light switch installation tasks so you won't have to compromise you and your home's overall safety. They can assemble wirings and cable, connect them to power sources, and inspect if the electricity is flowing adequately right after. Thinking of booking our switch installation service? Here's what you can expect:
Powerpoint installation
Before installing your appliances, it's crucial to secure enough power points to support the electricity flow. Electricians can help you plan, install, and replace or add powerpoints to maximise your area. They start by inspecting your place to identify specific spots where you'll likely need power sockets. The installation process typically involves:
- unscrewing the cover plates
- retesting the power source
- connecting extra cables to existing electrical outlets and stretching them to different locations
- rewiring cables to the new electrical socket or powerpoint
- Light switch installation
Light switches are responsible for connecting your electrical lights to the power source. If you need to replace an existing light switch, your electrician can disconnect them for you. Keep in mind, however, that the replacement switch needs to have the same functionality as the old one.
We can help install new light switches if you're in the process of building a new home or renovating your bathroom or kitchen. The process mostly involves rewiring and connecting new cables to the power source and mounting new faceplates. In case you want multi-purpose electrical lights, you can also request for dimmer switch installation.
Outdoor electrical socket installation
Professional electricians can also install outdoor sockets on your balcony, patio, or turf. This way, it's easier and safer to connect your appliances, especially if you're planning to have an outdoor kitchen or barbeque area.Â
It's also essential to consider the size of the landscape area, the structure conditions, and all the equipment you're planning to utilise. Electricians can handle the drill, connect cables from indoor to outdoor wall, and rewire your new outdoor electrical outlets accordingly.

Need to get the power sockets (13) and light switches (8) replaced throughout home. Looking to get something like the same brushed metal look across all of them. Would need advice on whether the ones I would like to purchase would be suitable and would be able to replace the existing ones. Assortment of dimmer switches and regular single/double light switches. A bathroom fan switch. Couple of power sockets with USB sockets built in. Would also like to know if I can get screw-less versions of the power sockets and light switches? I would be buying parts after getting a green light from whoever is doing the work that they are suitable.
Really pleasant chap to work with!

I currently have a hallway with a single gang switch at each end of the hallway which operate two ceiling light fittings. I want these replaced with two gang fittings so that I can operate each light separately (or have both on together). Also, one of the ceiling lights has broken (it’s an old bayonet fitting) and I’d want that replaced with another flush single bulb screw fitting. It’s a very low ceiling so there’s just space for a bulb, basically. I can buy any fixtures needed and I’ll purchase the two gang light switches if you confirm that it’s possible.
Jamal was prompt professional tidy and explained everything that was and wasn’t possible very clearly. Very happy with my working hallway lights now!! Would definitely recommend
