Services from your electrician in Dunoon

​

House rewiring

Old villa wiring is often a mix of decades. Old runs, add-ons and DIY work often sit side by side. We test what is there and tell you which parts are sound. A part rewire is often enough.

Fuse board upgrades

 

Older homes in Dunoon often have old fuses or no RCD protection. We check the board, the earth and each circuit first. If you need a new consumer unit, we fit it, label it and test it.

 

Our consumer unit cost guide explains what affects the price.

EV chargers, lights and alarms

 

An EV charger needs a drive or garage. In old villas, the fuse board is often far from the drive, so we check the supply and cable route first.

​

We also fit lights, security lights and alarms. On the seafront at Kirn and Hunters Quay, we pick outdoor fittings that can stand up to salt air.
