Redcar and the surrounding coastal villages are a steady part of our weekly electrician work. The Victorian seafront terraces, post-war housing in Dormanstown and Coatham, and newer estates at New Marske and Marske-by-the-Sea give a broad spread of jobs — consumer unit upgrades on older properties, EICR reports for the substantial buy-to-let market here, EV charger installations, and the inevitable salt-air-related corrosion remediation on coastal properties. Every installation within 5km of the coast gets marine-grade fixings and weather-rated enclosures as standard, not as an upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions
An EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is a comprehensive inspection of your property electrical wiring, consumer unit, earthing and bonding. Landlords are legally required to have an EICR every 5 years for rented properties. Homeowners are recommended to have one every 10 years or when buying a property. An EICR identifies any defects that could pose a safety risk.
A consumer unit (fuse board) upgrade typically costs between £450 and £800 depending on the number of circuits and complexity. This includes a new metal consumer unit with RCBO protection on every circuit, all reconnection work, minor earthing and bonding upgrades if needed, and an EICR on completion. A modern consumer unit is often required before installing EV chargers or solar panels.
The recommended intervals are: rental properties every 5 years (legal requirement), homeowner-occupied properties every 10 years, commercial properties every 5 years, and swimming pools/special locations annually. You should also have electrics tested when buying a property, after any flood or fire damage, or if you notice warning signs like flickering lights, burning smells or frequently tripping breakers.
We prioritise urgent electrical safety issues during our working hours (Monday to Friday 8am-6pm, Saturday 9am-2pm). If you have a complete power loss, burning smell, or other electrical emergency outside hours, call your electricity distributor (Northern Powergrid: 105) for supply issues, or contact us and we will get back to you as soon as possible the next working day.
We cover the whole of Teesside (Middlesbrough, Stockton, Darlington, Hartlepool, Redcar, Yarm, Thornaby, Eaglescliffe, Billingham, Ingleby Barwick, Guisborough), North East England (Durham, Sunderland, Newcastle, Gateshead), North Yorkshire (Northallerton, Stokesley, Thirsk, Ripon, Richmond, York), and parts of West and South Yorkshire.
