Homes in High Wycombe
The town has almost every kind of house in it. On the valley floor there are Victorian and Edwardian terraces, where older wiring and cramped fuse boxes under the stairs are common. Up on the ridges the 1930s semis often have had decades of piecemeal additions, and the post-war and newer estates on the outer ring usually need extra sockets, better lighting or a board that copes with modern loads rather than a full rewire.
What we usually do here
Most High Wycombe calls fall into three groups: a circuit that keeps tripping and needs tracing, a consumer unit that no longer meets current standards, or a renovation where a kitchen, bathroom or extension needs new circuits planned before the plasterer arrives. Landlords in town also book EICRs for rentals, and homeowners up towards Hazlemere often ask for one when they buy an older, extended house and want to know what they have inherited.
Because the van is rarely far away, we can often combine a quick look at a problem with a quote visit, which saves you taking two separate mornings off work. For bigger projects such as a full rewire, we agree a room-by-room order so the house stays usable while work goes on.

- Do you quote before starting?
- Yes. Quotes are free and written, so you know the scope and cost before any work begins.
