“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.”

WhatsAppHow much does solar panel installation cost?

Do you fit battery storage with solar panels?
Yes, Lighting Electrical installs battery storage with solar panels when the supply can carry the extra load.
