Electrician in Golborne

Are you looking for a local and reliable electrician in the Golborne area? Golborne sits between Newton-le-Willows and Wigan, so it is a short hop for us and well inside our regular run.

If there is one thing worth checking in your own home before you ring anybody, it is the fuse board.

Many fuse boards are out of date and simply don’t comply with modern health and safety requirements. If your fuse board has a wooden back board, cast iron or ceramic switches, or a mixture of fuses it is likely that it dates back to before the 1960’s, and older boards offer little protection from electric shock.

The giveaway is the fuse wire. If a fuse blowing means finding a screwdriver and rewiring a carrier in the dark, the board has had its day.

A modern consumer unit is metal clad, with RCBOs protecting each individual circuit, so a fault on one circuit does not put the whole house out. We would recommend you have yours upgraded to a new 18th Edition consumer unit.

We also cover Electrical Installation Condition Reports, fault finding, kitchen and extension wiring, outbuilding power supplies and general maintenance across Golborne, plus a round the clock emergency callout.

We provide FREE estimates to replace existing fuse boards with a Modern Consumer Units which provide a far greater level of protection.
