Why Bath is different

Bath is a UNESCO World Heritage Georgian conservation city — wiring here often runs through 600mm ashlar stone walls, around lath-and-plaster ceilings and behind original cornice. Cable routes need planning before chases are cut, and Listed-property work means careful coordination with conservation officers.

The rental and holiday-let market is heavy here, so jobs often coincide with a 5-yearly EICR — we can do both as one visit and issue all certs together.

Common questions

Can you work in a Listed Bath property without conservation issues?

Yes. We've worked in Listed Georgian townhouses across central Bath. The approach is minimal-intervention cable routes (under floorboards, in joist voids, behind existing skirting), surface clip-direct on stone walls where chases would damage fabric, and full coordination with the conservation officer before first-fix. We document everything for the LBC application.

How long does a fuse board replacement take?

A standard like-for-like RCBO consumer unit is typically a single-day job (8-10 hours including testing). 3-phase distribution boards or large 18-way domestic boards may run 1.5-2 days. We isolate at the cutout, work safely with the supply company's seal in place where required, and never leave a property without power overnight unless we've planned that with you.

Do I need AFDDs and SPD on a new board?

BS 7671 18th Edition Amendment 2 (since 2022) recommends AFDDs (Arc Fault Detection Devices) on socket circuits in HMOs, care homes, and high-risk locations — not yet mandatory on all domestic, but recommended best practice. SPD (Surge Protection Device) on the incomer is now standard on all our new boards — it's the cheapest insurance against a single induced-surge event taking out every appliance in the house.
