Frequently Asked Questions – Electrical Work for Extensions
Do I need new circuits for a house extension?
In most cases, yes. Extensions often add kitchens, appliances, or heating systems that require dedicated circuits to remain safe and compliant.
Will my fuse box need upgrading?
Possibly. Older consumer units may not safely support the increased electrical load. We assess this early and advise accordingly.
Is electrical work for extensions notifiable?
Yes. Electrical work in extensions falls under Part P Building Regulations and must be tested and certified by a qualified electrician.
Can you work with my builder?
Yes. We regularly coordinate with builders and other trades to keep projects on schedule.
Can you future-proof the electrics?
Absolutely. We can allow for future appliances, EV chargers, additional lighting, or home office requirements at the planning stage.
