Edge of town homes

Family houses on the western fringe

Like much of Crawley, Ifield West is mainly terraced and semi detached housing, part of the wider Ifield neighbourhood, with gardens front and back. Many homes have been extended, had kitchens refitted or gained a loft room since they were built, and each change tends to add a circuit or two to a board that was never sized for them.

When we change the board we count the circuits you really have, not the ones written on the old labels, and fit a unit with spare ways. Dual RCD protection across 10 ways costs £495, while full RCBO protection, which stops a fault on one circuit switching off the others, costs from £625.

  • Circuits counted and relabelled
  • Spare ways for later additions

Garden rooms, sheds and workshops on one board

Houses with decent gardens often end up powering something at the far end: a garden office, a workshop, a hot tub or a shed with lights and sockets. Each needs its own protected circuit and cable that is buried at a safe depth or properly fixed. Older ones were sometimes run as a spur from a kitchen socket, which is not a safe arrangement.

When we replace your board we test any existing outbuilding circuit and tell you if it falls short. If a garden room is planned, we can keep a dedicated way free, so the new building has a properly protected supply to connect to rather than yet another spur.

  • Outbuilding circuits tested
  • Unsafe spurs reported
  • A way kept for a garden office
  • Outdoor sockets RCD protected
Getting to you

Reaching the western side of Crawley

From Brighton & Hove we come up the A23 and M23, then cross Crawley to its western edge. Nothing is added for the drive. Snapshots of the meter and consumer unit let us fix the price, and if the power keeps tripping, a phone call will see us do all we can to get there that day.

Call 0333 360 8691

Yes, if the board has a spare way and the cable is sized for the load and the distance. A garden office with heating and a computer usually needs its own circuit, protected by an RCBO and run in armoured cable or suitable conduit. We can leave the way free when we fit the board, ready for that circuit to be connected, tested and certified.

Only as a short term measure. Leads left out in the weather degrade, are easily damaged by mowers and strimmers, and are not made to carry a heater or power tools for hours on end. A permanent supply on its own protected circuit is far safer. We will point out any lead arrangement during the inspection and explain what a proper supply would involve.

Allow 4 to 6 hours for most board changes from start to finish, though the supply is off for only part of that. We test the old installation first, swap the board, then test every circuit on the new one. We tell you before the power goes off so you can save any work, and a freezer kept shut will stay cold.
