Frequently Asked Questions

A few answers to questions that we're often asked.

What domestic electrical services do you provide?

Durasol Renewables provides a wide range of domestic electrical services for homeowners including electrical repairs, fault finding, new sockets, lighting installations, consumer unit upgrades, rewiring and electrical inspections and testing. We can also help with larger home improvement projects, extensions, renovations and upgrades to existing electrical systems. Our qualified electricians work safely and professionally, helping ensure your home’s electrical installation is safe and reliable for you and your family.

How do I know if my house needs rewiring?

Signs that your home may need rewiring include frequently tripping circuits, flickering lights, buzzing sockets or switches, discoloured outlets, damaged wiring, or an outdated fuse box. Older properties may also require an inspection to determine whether the electrical installation meets current safety standards. Durasol Renewables can assess your existing wiring, identify any risks and recommend the most suitable solutions. Rewiring is not always necessary, but an electrical inspection can help establish whether repairs, upgrades or a full rewire are needed.

Can you install additional sockets, lighting and other electrical fittings?

Yes. We can install additional sockets, USB sockets, indoor and outdoor lighting, switches, dimmers, extractor fans and other electrical fittings throughout your home. Whether you are renovating a room, improving lighting, adding new convenience sockets or preparing for a new appliance, we can advise on the best position and installation method. All work is completed with safety, functionality and the appearance of your home in mind.

Can you upgrade my consumer unit or fuse board?

Yes. Durasol Renewables can inspect and upgrade consumer units, sometimes referred to as fuse boards, where the existing unit is outdated, damaged or no longer suitable for the demands of your home. A modern consumer unit can provide improved protection through devices such as residual current devices and surge protection, where appropriate. Before recommending an upgrade, we assess the condition of the electrical installation and explain the available options and costs clearly.

Do you carry out electrical inspections and testing for homeowners?

Yes. We provide domestic electrical inspections and testing to help homeowners identify faults, safety risks and areas of non-compliance. Depending on your needs, this may include testing specific circuits, checking an electrical installation or carrying out an Electrical Installation Condition Report, also known as an EICR. Inspections can be useful when buying or selling a property, before letting a home, after renovation work or when an installation is showing signs of age or damage.

How much does an electrician cost?

The cost of an electrician depends on the type and complexity of the work required. Simple repairs or installations may take less time, while larger projects such as rewiring, electrical upgrades or commercial installations require a more detailed assessment. Durasol Renewables will take the time to discuss your requirements with you before any work is undertaken and provide a clear quotation before work begins. Get in touch for a free quote.
