The whole circuit.

From a home EV charger to a full commercial fit-out — every job quoted clearly, carried out to current regulations, certified where required, and covered by our one-year guarantee. NICEIC, TrustMark, Competent Person, OZEV approved and MCS certified.

01

EV Charging

As an OZEV approved installer we supply and fit home EV charge points from the leading brands — Hypervolt, Ohme and Zappi — and handle the grant paperwork where you qualify. Single- or three-phase, solar-integrated so your car can charge off your panels, and cabled so neatly that customers regularly comment there's nothing on show between the fuse box and the charger.

02

Rewires & Renovations

Complete rewires and electrical renovation work, whether you're modernising a period property or reworking a floor during a bigger project. We plan around you, keep the mess and disruption down, and hand the whole installation over tested, certified and covered by our one-year guarantee.

03

Fuseboard Upgrades

A modern consumer unit is one of the most important safety upgrades a home can have. We replace ageing fuse boards with current-standard units carrying the RCD and surge protection today's regulations require — a job several customers have thanked us for after inheriting 'dangerous' wiring from previous owners.

04

Smart Home

We design, install and programme smart home systems on Loxone, Rako, Lutron, KNX and Ajax — bringing heating, lighting, CCTV, blinds and audio together under one controlled system, configured around how you actually live. It's the automation side our parent company, Oxford Smart Homes, was built around.

05

Call Outs & Fault Finding

When something keeps tripping or simply stops working, we come out, trace the fault methodically and fix the cause rather than the symptom. Emergency callouts are available around the clock — call or WhatsApp Simon and Emma and we'll sort it with a 'not a problem' attitude.

06

Lighting

Lighting designed around the room and installed cleanly — from feature pendants over a stairwell to layered downlights, exterior wall lights and neat under-cupboard kitchen lighting. We plan the scheme with you, run the cabling out of sight and leave everything spotless.

07

EICRs & Electrical Testing

Thorough EICR testing and inspection with a clear report at the end — for homeowners wanting peace of mind, landlords meeting their legal duties, and property sales where the buyer's solicitor wants proof the electrics are sound. Findings are always explained plainly, never buried in jargon.

08

Sockets & Power

Extra sockets, relocated outlets, dedicated appliance circuits and outdoor power — installed to current regulations and finished neatly. The small jobs matter as much as the big ones, and they're done to the same tidy, careful standard our reviews keep mentioning.

09

Commercial Electrical Contracting

For businesses, we install, maintain and upgrade commercial electrical systems and specialise in fit-outs and refurbishments — coordinated around your trading hours so the work fits your schedule rather than shutting you down. One team from first fix to final certificate.

10

Renewable Energy

As an MCS certified installer we design and fit solar PV and renewable energy systems for commercial premises — cutting running costs and carbon, and integrating cleanly with battery storage and EV charging where it makes sense. MCS certification is what unlocks the grants and export payments that make the numbers work.

11

Testing & Maintenance (PPM)

Planned preventative maintenance keeps commercial installations safe, compliant and running without nasty surprises. We set up PPM programmes with scheduled inspections and compliance testing, and give you the certification and records to satisfy insurers, landlords and auditors.

12

Fire & Security

Integrated fire and security — fire alarm systems, emergency lighting, CCTV, and Ajax wireless security installations, specified to suit the property and its use. Cameras positioned where they earn their keep, alarms wired and commissioned to the relevant standards, everything demonstrated before we leave.

13

Lighting Controls & Building Automation

For commercial spaces we install lighting controls and building automation on Loxone and KNX — smart lighting with daylight harvesting and occupancy sensors that dims and switches to match how the building is actually used, trimming energy bills without anyone having to think about it.

14

Data & Networking

Reliable connectivity for business premises — structured data and network cabling, and Wi-Fi access points positioned for solid coverage across the whole site. Installed neatly, labelled and tested, so your network is something you can depend on rather than fight with.

15

Commercial EV Charging

Workplace and commercial EV charging installations — from a single staff bay to fleet infrastructure — designed with the load, future demand and any available grants in mind. OZEV approved, and integrated with solar and battery storage where it helps the business case stack up.

16

Home Battery Storage

Battery storage that stores your solar generation for use after dark, keeps EV charging off-peak, and can keep essentials running through a cut. Designed and installed to work as one system with your panels and charger rather than three unrelated boxes on the wall.
