How to find an Electrician in Belfast

Obviously you want to find the best electrician possible in Belfast. By best we mean a service provider that is going to rate high in reliability, customer service, and of course in price.

Most electricians will give you a rough price over the phone but may have to call to your home or business to give you a more accurate quote on total costs. Always get at least two or three quotes when selecting an Electrician or other service company in your area.Electrician at work in Belfast

Just be aware of cowboy electricians who may give you a lower price only to slap on a lot more extra costs once you agree to avail of their service. AMP Electrical promise to provide the highest quality service at the lowest possible cost.

Research Electricians in Belfast

Once you have a list of Belfast electricians you should ensure that they are fully qualified and licensed to carry out the work at your home or business. Nowadays you have the simple option of going online to Facebook, and review sites like Yell.com, to read about past customers of any electrician in Belfast, Newtownabbey or throughout Northern Ireland.

We have made it easier for you by adding reviews from Facebook to this site and as you can see we have many satisfied customers and countless others that we haven’t listed.

Getting a Quote

When getting a quote it is not always the best idea to go with the electrician offering the lowest prices. It is vitally important to realise that safety is paramount when it comes to electrical work. You are literally putting your life on the line if you don’t ensure that your electrician is operating within electrical safety regulations. You can be sure of that with our company.

Always weigh up availability, price, past experience and current customer reviews when choosing an electrician for the job.

If no reviews are available on the electrical company’s website – maybe they don’t even have a website – then you should always ask for references or details of past work, especially if you plan to fork out a lot of money for the work involved.

Trust Your Judgement

Speak to the electrician on the phone and trust your gut instinct before making your choice. Does the service provider sound like someone you want to do business with? If someone sounds shady or too good to be true then it usually means you should steer clear and go elsewhere.

Get Further Advice

Don’t feel pressured to make a decision quickly. If an electrician makes you feel uncomfortable for any reason, then seek more advice before you contract them to do work for you.

The Citizen’s Advice Bureau and Trading Standards will be able to give advice if you want to dispute work done by your electrician. Don’t hesitate to get in touch to check out your options.

Home Rewiring in Belfast

Electrics are part of building regulations whether you are getting a complete rewire,  making significant alterations or having additional installations fitted. Faulty electrics can be a serious fire risk or can even cause electrocution. So obviously it is very important to ensure that all your electrical installations and appliances fall within current regulations and even more importantly are not putting your home or family at risk.House Rewiring Belfast

If you are planning on moving into a new home which is older than 30 years old it is important that you get the electrics checked out.

Getting your home rewired can be a messy  job so it is crucial that if you are moving into a new property that you get the rewiring done before considering any redecorating or re-plastering.

When is it necessary to have your home rewired?

If you are getting a house extension or converting one or more of the rooms, for example getting a roof conversion or converting a garage into a new room, you will need to have an electrician check that the electrical work meets the current standards. If your current home electrics have not been upgraded in the last 25 years then they will need to be checked out to ensure they meet current standards and regulations. If it is over 25 years old it is highly likely that you will have to at the very least, need a part rewire. Electrical safety will need to be checked and improved to make sure it can carry current loads, it is earthed properly to meet current standards and that cross bonding satisfactory.

Rewiring Work Procedure

AMP Electrical will split your home rewiring in to first and seond fix. . First fix involves all of the wiring or rewiring, including but not limited to circuits and back boxes for power, lighting , burglar alarms, smoke detectors and doorbells, plus telephone, television.

Second fix involves connecting up the consumer unit, adding light fittings, faceplates for switches and sockets, connecting the boiler, immersion heater and central heating controls.

Sometimes a full rewire of your home  can be  avoided provided the cabling in place is in satisfactory condition and able to carry the current loads. It may also be possible to upgrade the consumer unit and cross bonding  with something more modern thus avoiding the high costs of a full rewiring. Contact us today to discuss this further.

At AMP Electric Belfast we will usually start any rewiring work at the same  time as the plumbing and central heating is being installed. If the house requires new cabling, floorboards will need to be  uplifted and usually skirting boards too. If possible you should  have this electrical work done before moving into your home as this work will cause major disruption.

A full rewiring will include the following:

  • 1. Installation of New Cabling
  • 2. Fitting of Black Boxes for Sockets and Switches
  • 3. Fitting Switch Plates
  • 4. Light & Consumer Unit Fitting
  • 5. Wiring Any Electric Fans, Cookers & Extractor Hoods
  • 6. Wiring Electric Showers & Immersion Heater

House Rewiring Costs

The price will be calculated using measured rates according to how long we  expect the work to take, how many circuits there are and the number of power points, light fittings and switches.

We  will also take into account whether the work is a new build or extension, in which case  we can just face-fix the circuits, or a renovation, in which case we  may have to lift floorboardss and remove  plasterwork to conceal the wiring which, therefore, takes longer and costs more.
