Electrical work across London
London's electrical work follows its housing: Victorian and Edwardian houses split into flats, mansion blocks, ex-council estates and new-build towers. Conversions often have tangled histories, with circuits added by different people over the decades, so fault finding and condition reports are common requests. Access, parking and building management rules all add time to jobs in the capital, and many landlords need regular electrical safety reports for rented flats.
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.
