If you’re looking for a reliable electrician in Brackley, L J Mullan Electrical provides a wide range of domestic electrical services throughout Brackley and the surrounding areas.
Although we are based in the village of King’s Sutton, near Banbury, Brackley is only a short distance away and is an area in which we regularly carry out electrical work. Being located so close means we can provide a genuinely local service to homeowners, landlords and businesses throughout Brackley.
From small electrical jobs and additional sockets through to EICRs, consumer unit upgrades and EV charger installations, we can help with electrical work in properties of all ages.
Electrical Work in Brackley’s Newer Homes
Brackley has seen considerable residential development over recent years, with a large number of new-build and modern properties appearing around the town.
Even when you live in a relatively new property, the electrical installation provided when the house was originally built might not completely suit the way you use your home today.
As families settle into their homes, additional electrical work is often required. This could include:
- Additional sockets and power points
- New lighting and LED downlights
- External lighting and sockets
- EV charger installations
- Garage and outbuilding power
- Extractor fans
- Kitchen electrical alterations
- Replacement light fittings and accessories
- Consumer unit alterations and upgrades
EV charger installation in Brackley is becoming particularly relevant as more homeowners move to electric vehicles. A property may have been built relatively recently but not have the electrical infrastructure originally installed for an EV charger.
We can assess the existing electrical installation and advise on what may be required to safely install a home EV charging point.
Some “New Builds” Are Now Approaching 10 Years Old
It’s also worth remembering that some of the developments around Brackley that we still think of as new builds are now approaching 10 years old.
Although this certainly doesn’t mean there is anything wrong with the electrical installation, homeowners may want to consider having an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) carried out, particularly if they have recently purchased the property, don’t know its electrical history or alterations have been made since it was originally built.
An EICR provides an assessment of the condition of the fixed electrical installation and can identify deterioration, defects or other issues that may require attention.
EICRs for Brackley Homes
If you’re unsure about the condition of the electrics within your property, an EICR in Brackley can be a great place to start.
During an EICR, the electrical installation is inspected and tested, with the results recorded within a detailed report.
If anything requires remedial attention, this will be identified on the report. We can also highlight recommendations that, while they may not make the installation immediately unsatisfactory, could improve the level of electrical protection within the property.
This gives homeowners a much clearer understanding of the condition of their electrical installation and allows any required work to be properly planned.
Older Properties in Brackley
Of course, Brackley isn’t all new builds. There are also plenty of older and more traditional properties throughout the town.
Older homes can have very different electrical requirements. Installations may have been altered or extended by several different owners over the years, and some electrical equipment may now be outdated compared with the standards and technology available today.
Again, an EICR is often a sensible starting point.
Rather than simply guessing what needs upgrading, the inspection and testing process can establish the condition of the existing installation and identify any remedial work required or improvements recommended.
One of the common recommendations we make in older installations relates to an outdated fuse board or consumer unit.
The age of a consumer unit alone doesn’t automatically mean that it needs replacing. However, depending on the equipment currently installed, upgrading to a modern consumer unit can provide additional levels of protection.
Modern consumer units can incorporate features such as 30mA Type A RCBO protection to individual circuits and Type 2 surge protection, helping bring the electrical installation more in line with current standards.
We can assess your existing installation, explain what you currently have and provide a quotation for any recommended upgrades.
