Homeowners here call us for the everyday things — a socket that has stopped working, lights that trip when switched on — as well as the bigger projects such as rewires and consumer unit replacements.
We will always tell you if a repair will do the job rather than pushing towards a replacement.
Homes and electrics in Kitts Green
The area is largely made up of family housing with gardens, and a good proportion of properties have garages or outbuildings. That means outdoor circuits crop up regularly, and outdoor circuits are one of the most frequent causes of nuisance RCD tripping once water finds its way in.
Where an external supply has been extended informally over the years, replacing it with a properly protected armoured circuit usually solves several problems at once.
We also cover Shard End, Stechford, Lea Hall, Garretts Green and the surrounding neighbourhoods.

- My garden lights trip the RCD after heavy rain — can that be fixed?
- Usually, yes. Water ingress into a fitting, joint or damaged cable is the typical cause and can be traced by testing the circuit section by section.
- Can you supply power to a detached garage?
- Yes, normally with a buried armoured cable and a small distribution board in the garage giving local isolation and protection.
