“Ten years on Colchester housing stock and I have seen most of it: terraces where the lighting circuit has been extended once too often, boards fitted before RCDs were standard, new builds with sockets nowhere near the kitchen. I check the earthing, the bonding and whether the supply will carry another load before I price anything, because the age of a house settles nothing on its own.”

How much does extractor fan installation cost?
Extractor fan installation starts from £180. That starting price is for a standard fitting where the cable and duct path are already in place. Extra cable, new ducting or a timer switch is priced in writing before work starts.
Will the electricity go off while you fit the fan?
Only the circuit for the extractor fan is isolated during the fitting. Lights and sockets on other circuits stay on. Power on that circuit returns once the fan has been tested.
Do I get a certificate for an extractor fan?
You get the electrical paperwork the fitting needs when the work is complete. A minor works certificate starts from £95 when that is the document the job requires. The record stays with you for the property.
Do you fit extractor fans in commercial premises?
Yes, Lighting Electrical fits extractor fans for homeowners, landlords and businesses. Work covers Colchester, Witham, Maldon and the other Essex towns the company serves. The fitting is planned around the room you need extracting.
Can you replace a noisy or dead extractor fan?
Lighting Electrical replaces a noisy or dead extractor fan on the same circuit where that circuit is sound. The old fan comes out, the new one goes in, then we test extraction before leaving. Wiring or duct work beyond a straightforward swap is priced in writing before we start.
