I have always been happy with the quality of work delivered by Oval Electrical over the last few years.
About five or six weeks ago, I had a customer in Hanover get in touch after we were recommended to them by a friend. They were decorating their home and wanted to replace all the switches and sockets in their home with new brushed brass faceplates to give the place a more modern look. This sounds like a small simple job that isn't worth doing but old switches and sockets will stick out like a sore thumb in a newly decorated room.
That is just one example of the work I carry out in Hanover. I've been an electrician for over 10 years and regularly work in the area carrying out all types of jobs from additional sockets and lighting alterations through to full rewires and EICRs. Being a NAPIT registered electrician with more than 90 five-star Google reviews, my main focus is always on providing clear communication and high-quality workmanship from start to finish.
Back to top1) Electrical Work I Regularly Carry Out in Hanover
Hanover has a unique mix of terraced homes, narrow streets and a strong community feel. The houses have plenty of charm but many were built long before modern electrical demands existed.
One of the most common requests I receive in this area is for additional sockets. A lot of homes in Hanover simply do not have enough sockets for modern family life. Extension leads and multi-gang adaptors become the norm, especially in living rooms and bedrooms.
Many customers tell me they search for an "electrician near me" because they want someone with local knowledge and has experiences working in hanover homes
Back to top2) A Recent Kitchen Rewire in Hanover
One of my favourite projects in Hanover was a complete kitchen rewire carried out last year.
The customer was having a new kitchen fitted and wanted to make quite a few changes to the layout of their sockets and lighting.
I installed new dedicated circuits for the cooker and hob, new LED downlights and undercupboard lighting. Because the walls in Hanover can be quite challenging, careful planning was needed to minimise the amount of chases and holes we would need to drill.
Once the first-fix work was complete, I returned a couple weeks later to fit the new white sockets and switches, LED tape lighting beneath the wall units and test all the new wiring.
Projects like this are a good example of how electrical work isn't always about fixing faults. Often it is about helping homeowners get more enjoyment from their property while ensuring everything remains safe and compliant.
Back to top3) Common Electrical Problems in Hanover Homes
Having worked in Hanover and the surrounding Brighton area’s, I regularly come across similar issues.
Many properties still have old fuseboards that lack modern protection devices such as RCD’s and Surge protection devices.
This is probably the most common complaint I hear. Older homes simply weren't designed for today's electricity usage.
Some houses have had electrical work carried out over many decades by different people. During EICR’s I often uncover wiring that requires improvement to make the home safe
