We work with homeowners throughout Shard End, covering both the everyday jobs and the larger upgrades. A lot of what we are asked to do here involves bringing older installations up to a modern standard safely and in stages.
If you are unsure whether something needs attention now or can wait, we would rather tell you straight than sell you work you do not need.
Homes and electrics in Shard End
Much of the housing stock in Shard End dates from the post-war building programme, and a significant number of these homes have had additions over time — a shower circuit here, an extra ring there — without the board or the main wiring being brought up to date.
That combination is why fault finding, consumer unit replacement and partial rewiring are our most common jobs in this part of Birmingham.
We also cover Kitts Green, Castle Bromwich, Buckland End, Stechford and the surrounding neighbourhoods.
Electrical services in Shard End
Tripping circuits and electrical faults
If an RCD keeps tripping or part of the house has gone dead, we test the circuits properly to find the cause instead of resetting and waiting.

Replacing older boards with modern units so a fault on one circuit no longer takes out the whole house.
More on consumer unit replacementPartial rewires
Where only part of the property needs attention — a kitchen, an upstairs floor or a damaged circuit — we quote for that rather than the whole house.

- It is close to our base, so travel is rarely the limiting factor — availability on the day is. Give us a ring and we will be straight with you.
