Replacing outdated fuse boards with modern consumer units provides better safety and compliance. Upgrades reduce risk, improve efficiency, and ensure your home’s electrical system runs smoothly and reliably.
An outdated fuse board may not provide the level of protection required today. This increases the risk of overloads, electrical faults, or even fire. Replacing an old unit with a modern consumer unit ensures safer distribution of power, with built-in features like circuit breakers and RCDs designed to protect people and property.
We supply and fit new consumer units that meet the latest safety standards. Every circuit is tested after installation to ensure safe operation and reliable performance. An upgraded unit improves both compliance and efficiency, providing homeowners with peace of mind and a much safer electrical system overall.
Great service, straightforward to deal with and the agreed work was undertaken promptly. The electrician arrived on time on the designated date and was very helpful, taking away all old fittings and clearing up any mess. Invoicing arrangements and subsequent payment facility was slick. Happy to recommend!
I needed a light fitting replaced with a new one. After getting an email quote from Harkins & Vickers I phoned up the following day to arrange someone to come round to do the job. I was lucky enough that someone was able to come out that morning to do the job. The fitter that came round was lovely and polite and did a fantastic job! Would happily recommend and I will definitely be using Harkins & Vickers again for any future work.
Scott at Harkins & Vickers Electrical Solutions was very efficient, he made sure to explain the electrical fault, any necessary work to be carried out and started the job without delay. We received a precise invoice at the completion of work and our bill the following day, telephoning to make payment was straight forward also. Would thoroughly recommend as a company, work was completed in a safe and secure manner at a very reasonable cost
