# Electrician in Tadworth

> Tadworth electrician for new circuits, outbuildings and domestic work, scoped around actual equipment and existing supply.

Domestic electrician in Tadworth for fault finding, EICRs, rewiring, consumer units and new electrical circuits for home improvements, garages and garden rooms.


## Electrician in Tadworth

Tadworth is next door to Banstead, so it is about as local as our work gets.

### Fuse board replacements

The 1930s Costain semis along Shelvers Way and Shelvers Hill are approaching a century and ready for modern units.

### Outbuildings, pools and garden studios

Many run off a sub main sized for far less than the heating and workshop now hanging on it.

### Inspections on multi board houses

The larger properties towards Kingswood need every board covered, not only the one in the hall.

## Tadworth homes and their electrics

Tadworth holds a wider spread of house sizes than most towns we cover, and the wiring varies as much.

### 1930s Costain semis on Shelvers Way and Shelvers Hill

Well made houses where the joinery has outlasted the fuse board and the earliest circuits by decades.

### Large houses on the private roads towards Kingswood

Supplies spread across several boards in different parts of the building, so knowing what feeds what comes first.

### Listed and period cottages in Walton on the Hill

Around Walton Street and the green, where cable is taken the long way to leave the fabric alone.

### The Avenue, Merland Rise, Preston Lane and the Dorking Road

Interwar and later houses wanting extra sockets, outside lighting, showers and answers to a tripping board.

## What happens on the day in Tadworth

Tadworth work is arranged Monday to Friday between 9am and 2pm, with access to every relevant board agreed before the appointment.

### Arriving and mapping the supply

On a big Kingswood house the day starts by finding every board, which can mean the hall, the garage, the pool plant room and an outbuilding, and working out which one feeds what. Nothing is switched off until that is clear, because guessing on a property with three boards is how somebody's heating gets isolated for a week. In a Shelvers Way semi it takes two minutes and we crack on.

### The work

Cable is run through voids and lofts in preference to chasing walls, which keeps the making good down. Outbuilding jobs mean digging a proper trench for armoured cable rather than hanging something along a fence, and the turf goes back the same afternoon. Where a Costain semi turns out to have earlier cable than the board suggested, we stop, look at it together and we put a revised figure to you before going on.

### Testing and certification

Everything worked on is measured, and on a multi board property each board gets its own schedule so the papers actually make sense to the next person reading them. New circuits, board changes and rewiring are notifiable, so they are registered under Part P and certified. A pool or studio supply also gets written up separately, since that is the part a future buyer will query.

## Why Tadworth customers choose TMB Electrics

A big house gets the same care as a small one, the figure is written before the tools appear, and nothing is added to an old sub main just because it happens to be nearest.

## Questions about electrical work in Tadworth

What customers around Tadworth ask us most.

### How much does an electrician cost in Tadworth?

Every job gets a written figure of its own before it begins. Fault finding is charged by time from £80 an hour, and each other job shows its starting price on the page covering that work. On the larger properties the honest answer is that size drives the cost, since a house on four boards takes several times as long to inspect as a semi on one.

### Do you cover Walton on the Hill and Kingswood as well?

Both, along with Burgh Heath and the roads out to the Dorking Road. Walton on the Hill in particular is a regular stop, and the private roads towards Kingswood are five minutes further. Being this close means a return visit to check something costs you nothing, which matters on a property where the work is spread across outbuildings.

### My 1930s Costain semi is on its original board. Is that a problem?

It is worth doing something about. An original board cannot cut the supply when current leaks to earth, which is the thing that protects a person rather than the cable. Replacing it with a modern consumer unit including residual current protection is the single biggest improvement those houses get, and the testing that comes with the change tells you the state of the circuits behind it.

### My garden studio keeps tripping. What causes that?

Nearly always the supply feeding it. A shed that gained a heater, a kettle and a workshop is drawing several times what its original cable was chosen for, and either the cable itself is failing or moisture has found its way into a joint outside. The fix is a correctly rated buried armoured supply with its own protection, not another extension lead from the house.

### My house has several fuse boards. Can you test all of them?

Yes, and on the bigger Tadworth and Kingswood properties that is the only inspection worth having. Each board gets tested and written up on its own schedule, including the ones out in a garage, a pool room or an annexe. It takes longer than a standard house, so the quote allows for it rather than pretending a mansion tests like a maisonette.

### Can you work in a listed cottage in Walton on the Hill?

Yes. In a listed building the wiring has to fit around what is already there, so cable follows existing voids, floors and chimney breasts instead of being cut into old lath and plaster. Anything visible is discussed with you before it goes in. The work is slower and the quote says so, but nothing original is lost to get a socket in.
