Electrician in Burnley You Can Rely On

Looking for an electrician in Burnley? We take on consumer unit replacements, rewires, EICR testing and CCTV. Open 6am to 11pm every day, with 24 hour emergency cover and a certificate at the end of every job.

Our Services

Your consumer unit is the board that holds the breakers and protects every circuit in the house. Older boards have no RCD, so they will not cut the power fast enough if something goes wrong. We replace the board, test every circuit and certificate it. There is more on our consumer unit replacement page.

A full house rewire replaces all the cabling, sockets, switches and the consumer unit. It is normally needed in older properties where the wiring is rubber or fabric covered. We work room by room so the house stays usable while it runs. See the full house rewire page for how the work goes.

An EICR is a full inspection of the wiring in a property. It sets out what is safe, what needs attention and what has to be fixed. Landlords in Burnley need one every five years, and buyers often ask for one too. Our EICR testing page explains what the report covers.

A partial rewire replaces the cabling in part of a property rather than all of it. Kitchens, bathrooms and upstairs lighting are the usual ones, often after an extension or a failed test. It costs a good deal less than a full rewire. See the partial rewire page for what is included.

Old fuse boxes with rewirable fuses give no protection against an electric shock. Swapping to a modern board with RCD protection takes most of a day. We test the circuits first, because faults often hide behind an old board. There is more on the fuse box replacement page.

We fit CCTV to houses and small business units around Burnley. That means choosing camera positions that actually cover the doors and the driveway, running the cable tidily and setting the system up on your phone. The CCTV installation page shows what a typical setup includes.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an electrician to change a fuse box in Burnley?

Yes. Replacing a consumer unit is notifiable work, so it has to be done by a qualified electrician and registered. We test the existing circuits first, because faults often only show up once the old board comes off. The certificate is handed over when we finish.

How often should the wiring in a Burnley home be tested?

Owner occupied homes should have an EICR every 10 years. Rented property needs one every five years or at a change of tenancy. If you are buying an older house, it is worth having one done before you move in. We carry out EICR testing across Burnley and the surrounding areas.

What should I do if my electrics keep tripping?

Unplug everything on the circuit that tripped, then reset the breaker. If it holds, plug things back in one at a time until it trips again and you have found the faulty appliance. If it trips with nothing plugged in, the fault is in the wiring. Call us and we will trace it.
