Sockets & Switches

More sockets, in the right places

Most homes have more appliances than they were built for, and extension leads and adaptors end up doing the work instead. Overloaded adaptors are a common cause of overheating, so adding proper sockets is safer as well as tidier.

We add, move and replace sockets and switches throughout your home or business, including double sockets with built-in USB charging. Cracked, loose or scorched accessories are replaced straight away.

Before adding anything, we check the circuit can safely handle the extra load, and all work is tested and certified.

Areas we cover: Manchester, Salford, Stockport, Trafford, Bolton, Bury, Oldham, Rochdale, Tameside and Wigan, across Greater Manchester.

Sockets & Switches: your questions answered

Can you add sockets without rewiring?

Usually, yes. If the existing circuit has the capacity, we can extend it to add new sockets without a full rewire.

Are USB sockets safe?

Good-quality USB sockets from reputable brands are safe and convenient. We only fit accessories we trust.

Can I have a socket in my bathroom?

Shaver sockets can be fitted in bathrooms. Standard sockets are allowed only if they're at least 2.5 metres from the edge of the bath or shower zone, so we'll advise on the safest option.
