Electrician in Epsom

  • Epsom sits twenty minutes from our door and we are there most weeks, on houses, flats and small commercial units.
  • The render and pebbledash semis filling the roads out of town still run on boards with nothing to trip on a fault.
  • Worple Road and College Road bay fronts whose circuits never caught up with a century of extensions.
  • An EICR, a written check of the wiring, for landlords letting flats and buyers taking on older Epsom stock.

Epsom homes and their electrics

  • Epsom's buildings run from the spa era to the interwar estates, and the wiring generally follows suit.
  • Church Street and the old end of the High Street, where anything visible outside is planned around the frontage.
  • Big rooms, deep floor voids and circuits added to across a hundred years of family life.
  • These fill every road out of Epsom, and many are still on their original style of fuse box.

What happens on the day in Epsom

Epsom work is arranged Monday to Friday between 9am and 2pm, with access and any circuits that need to remain live agreed before the visit.

  1. 01

    Arrival and a look at what feeds what

    The first job is opening the board with you standing there and working out which way round the house is fed, because in Epsom a modern unit is often sitting on much older cable behind it. We then say which rooms lose power and roughly when. On the older High Street buildings, where to leave the van and how to get equipment in without marking a hallway takes five minutes to settle and saves an hour.

  2. 02

    Getting the work done

    The bay fronted houses on College Road have deep floor voids and generous roof space, which is a gift, so most of the cable goes where nobody will ever see it. Carpets come up at the edge and go back stretched. Where the old wiring proves worse than the board suggested, and in a house on its third generation of circuits it sometimes does, we stop, look at it together and we give you the revised figure before we carry on.

  3. 03

    Testing, then your paperwork

    Readings are taken on everything we have worked on and written into a schedule that goes with the certificate. New boards, new circuits and rewiring are all notifiable, so the work is registered under Part P and the document reaches you afterwards. If your house is one of those with a newer board on old cable, the test results tell you plainly which half is fine and which is not.

Questions about electrical work in Epsom

The questions that come up most around the town.

How much does an electrician cost in Epsom?+

Each job carries its own written figure, fixed before anything starts. Chasing a fault is charged by time from £80 an hour, and every other job shows its starting price on the relevant service page. Lumping them into a single headline number would be meaningless, since the difference between an extractor fan and a full house of circuits is most of a fortnight's work.

Do you cover all of Epsom?+

Yes. The town centre and Church Street, Burgh Heath Road, College Road and Worple Road, Ashley Road, Stamford Green, Woodcote, Langley Vale and the roads towards the Downs. Ewell and Stoneleigh sit on the same run, so a job on that side is no further to reach than the High Street.

My semi is on its original style of fuse box. What now?+

Have it tested, then replaced with a modern consumer unit carrying residual current protection, which disconnects the supply in milliseconds when current leaks to earth. An original box with rewirable fuses cannot do that at all. In the interwar semis around Epsom it is the commonest job we do, and the testing that comes with it tells you the state of the cable as well.

A new board was fitted years ago. Does that mean the house is fine?+

Not on its own. A modern board does not make old cable new, and Epsom has plenty of houses where a smart looking unit sits on wiring from the fifties. The two are judged separately by testing insulation resistance and earthing on each circuit. Sometimes the answer is that everything behind the board is sound, and that is worth knowing too.

Can you work on an older building near the High Street?+

Yes. Georgian and spa era buildings need cable worked around the structure rather than driven through it, and anything appearing on the outside is shown to you before it goes up. Where a building is listed, the work is planned so nothing original is cut or lost. It takes longer than a modern house and the quote reflects that from the start.

Can you put in a garden studio or outside lighting?+

Regularly, especially out at Woodcote and Langley Vale where the plots are bigger. A garden building needs its own properly rated supply, buried at the correct depth in armoured cable, with protection at the house end. Hanging it off an existing socket circuit is what causes the tripping people ring us about later, so it gets done as its own circuit.

How quickly can you get to Epsom?+

TMB Electrics works Monday to Friday from 9am to 2pm. Send the Epsom address and job details through the website so the work and a suitable appointment can be discussed.
