Socket and switch installation across Coulsdon
We serve Coulsdon from our base in Banstead.
What happens on the day
One extra socket, or one switch, goes on a circuit that already exists. That circuit is isolated at the board before the cables are joined, then we test the outlet and the breaker that feeds it. A minor works certificate is included when the change needs one. In a flat at Netherne on the Hill the socket goes in the flat, not in the stair meter cupboard. A new circuit from the board, and a board change, are different bookings.
- Add the one point namedA single or a double socket on the existing circuit, in the room named, is the work. A second point is written into the price before it is cut in.
- Keep it out of the stairIn a flat at Netherne on the Hill the new socket stays inside the flat. The stair meter cupboard, and the shared supply in it, is not where a domestic socket is added.
- Test the circuit that feeds itThe circuit is isolated, the point is joined, and both the point and the circuit are tested. A minor works certificate is completed when that change needs one.

WhatsAppCan the new socket go in the stair at Netherne on the Hill?
No. The socket goes in the flat, on a circuit that already serves that flat. The stair meter cupboard is the shared supply, not a place for a new domestic socket.
Is this a new circuit from the board?
No. This visit adds a point to a circuit that already exists. A new circuit from the board is priced as different work.
Will you change the fuse board as well?
No. A board change is its own booking. Adding one socket does not become a new board, even where the bungalows often need one.
What if another socket is asked for after you arrive?
It is written into the price before it is cut in. It is not added because the board is already isolated.
Do I get a certificate?
When the change needs one, yes. A minor works certificate records the new point on the existing circuit. It is not a report on the rest of the home.
