Electricianin Putney
Domestic electrical work for the houses and converted flats of Putney, from rewires and consumer units to landlord safety reports, covered from Sutton.
Homeowners and landlords searching for electricians Putney way usually want the same thing: a qualified contractor who explains the work plainly and leaves the installation tested and certified. TH Electricians LTD is an electrical contractor based in Sutton, and we take on domestic jobs in Putney, which is around 7.4 miles north of us in a straight line. We are not local to the postcode, and we say so, but we plan visits carefully and treat each house as its own job.
Houses, flats and everything in between
Putney is a mixed place to live. There are family houses, terraces that have been converted into flats, and purpose-built blocks, all within the same few streets. Each type raises different electrical questions. A house may need a rewire before an extension goes on. A converted flat often has an installation that was altered when the building was split up. A block flat usually has its own consumer unit but shares the building with everyone else.
That is why we start with a look at what is actually installed. We would rather explain what we find and let you decide than sell you a package you may not need.

Rewires and renovation electrics in Putney
Many Putney homes are being extended, opened up or refitted, and the electrics need to come along with that work. Our renovation electrical services include first-fix cabling before plastering, new circuits for kitchens and utility rooms, and upgrading the supply arrangement so it copes with the new load.
A full or partial rewire is the largest of these jobs. Signs that a house may need one include old rubber or fabric-covered cable, an assortment of different socket styles from different decades, and a fuse board that keeps tripping without an obvious cause. We agree the sequence of work with you first, especially if you are living in the house, and we test the finished installation before certifying it. Our domestic work follows Part P requirements and we are NAPIT registered.

Seven services, each shown from the problem to the finished job. These are illustrations of typical work; photos from our own jobs are further down the page.

Consumer unit and fuse board upgrades
A consumer unit is the box that distributes power and protects each circuit. If yours is an old fuse board, or a very early unit without modern protective devices, an upgrade brings the protection up to what current practice expects. It can be carried out on its own, without disturbing walls or floors.
We look at the state of the circuits first. If a circuit shows a problem during testing, we tell you what it is before fitting the new unit rather than covering it up. You will have a written record of the installation when we finish.
Electricians in Putney for landlords and letting agents
Many Putney homes are let, and landlords in England need an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) for privately rented homes, renewed at intervals. An EICR is an inspection and test of the existing wiring, and it results in a written report on its condition and anything that needs attention.
We carry out EICRs for landlords and managing agents, and we can quote for any remedial work the report lists, so it does not turn into a search for a second electrician. We also provide landlord electrical work in general, such as extra sockets, lighting and consumer unit replacements between tenancies. If you look after more than one property, tell us at the start so we can plan around your tenancy dates.
Buying or selling a home in Putney
A survey sometimes flags the electrics, and a buyer may ask for an EICR before exchange. If you are selling, an inspection ahead of time lets you deal with any findings on your own schedule. If you are buying, a report gives you a clearer idea of what the wiring will cost you after completion.
We inspect and test the installation and explain the report in ordinary language, listing anything that needs attention, then quote for that work if you want us to carry it out.
Lighting and smart home installations
A house that has been rewired or refitted is the ideal moment to think about lighting. We install and upgrade ceiling lights, LED downlights, feature and garden lighting, and replace tired fittings, and we also fit smart home installations for people who want app-controlled lighting or wiring prepared for future equipment.
Planning is what makes these jobs work: where switches go, how circuits are divided, and where cable runs before finishes go on. If you are working with a builder or designer, we are happy to fit around their programme.
Getting the visit right first time
Most electrical problems are easier to price once we have seen them. When you call, tell us what has happened, what type of property it is and roughly how old the wiring is, and whether anyone lives there during the work. If you have an earlier certificate or report, keep it to hand. We will explain what we would look at and what a sensible first step would be, and we will not commit you to anything before we have seen the installation.

Questions about electricians in Putney
Where are you based if you cover Putney?
We are based in Sutton, about 7.4 miles from Putney in a straight line. We travel to Putney for domestic and commercial jobs, and we arrange visits in advance rather than pretending to be next door.
Do I need a rewire or just a new consumer unit?
Not always the same thing. A new consumer unit replaces the box that protects your circuits, while a rewire replaces the cabling itself. We look at both, test the circuits, and tell you what we find before you decide.
Can you provide an EICR for a flat I let out?
Yes. We inspect and test the installation, then give you a written report on its condition. If it lists remedial work, we can quote to carry that out for you.
Will I receive certification for the work?
Yes. We are NAPIT registered and follow Part P requirements for domestic work. When the job has been tested and completed, you receive the paperwork that goes with it.
