Common Electrical Problems We Solve in Hemel Hempstead
Outdated fuse boards

Rewiring decisions
Older or mixed-age wiring that needs a clear call on partial versus full rewire before renovation budgets are set.
Extension electrics
Rear extensions and kitchen projects that need properly rated circuits and board capacity, not last-minute add-ons.
Repeated tripping
Trips caused by ageing circuits, faulty appliances, damp outdoor feeds or overloaded kitchen and shower circuits.
