Frequently Asked Questions
We isolate the circuit, remove the existing socket or switch, route new cabling to the desired location, install a new back box and face plate, then make good the original opening. The whole process is designed to leave minimal trace of the old position.
We keep disruption to an absolute minimum. Small channels (chases) may need to be cut to route cables, and we fill and plaster over them as part of the job. For stud walls, cables can usually be run inside the cavity with little visible work. We always leave the area clean and tidy.
A single socket or switch relocation typically takes one to two hours, including making good. Multiple relocations in the same room can usually be completed in half a day. We will give you an accurate time estimate before we start.
Yes. Sockets in bathrooms must comply with strict zoning rules under BS 7671, and kitchen sockets should be positioned away from sinks and hobs. Our electricians are fully trained in these regulations and will advise on safe, compliant placements during the survey.
