Electrical work across East Midlands

The East Midlands has a lot of terraced and semi-detached housing, former mining and textile towns and plenty of villages. Older homes may still have original fuse boxes or a patchwork of later additions, and student lets in the university cities generate steady demand for condition reports, smoke alarms and repairs between tenancies.

In England, new circuits, consumer unit replacements and work in bathrooms are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations. An electrician registered with a competent person scheme can self-certify the work, and you should receive a certificate when it's finished. How to choose an electrician.
