ALPS Electrical is genuinely local to Yarm — our base is in Kirklevington, less than a mile from Yarm High Street. That means fast response times for fault-finding and urgent electrical work, and no travel surcharges that out-of-area contractors often quietly include. Yarm's housing stock reflects its history as a Georgian market town: the High Street conservation area includes a number of listed and pre-listed buildings whose electrical installations require particular care, with surface wiring routes and fixings chosen to avoid damaging historic fabric. Eaglescliffe and the surrounding villages like Kirklevington, Leven, Egglescliffe and Aislaby contain a mix of older farmhouses and cottages alongside executive new-builds, with very different electrical demands. We carry out the full range of domestic electrical work as a NAPIT Registered Electrician — EICRs, rewires, consumer unit upgrades, additional circuits, fault diagnosis, and new installations — and self-certify all notifiable work, so you receive your Part P Building Regulations certificate directly from us without a council building control visit.

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.
