Jobs we’ve done in Chorlton

Circuit separation, three-flat conversion, Chorlton

The problem: Ground-floor board still feeding the communal landing and part of the top flat, so bills and faults were shared.
What we did: Every circuit traced and separated, each flat given its own labelled board and dedicated supply and communal lighting put on the landlord’s own circuit.
Result: Each flat now independent, individually certifiable and each tenant pays only for their own power.

Kitchen extension first and second fix, Chorltonville

The problem: Rear extension with an island, bi-folds and a utility, on a board with two spare ways and no RCD upstairs.
What we did: First fix run with the builder, dedicated circuits for island sockets, oven and hob, separate switching for under-cabinet and ceiling lighting and a full board replacement.
Result: Certified on completion with paperwork ready for building control sign-off.

Local knowledge

What Chorlton wiring is usually like

Chorlton is Victorian and Edwardian villas, Chorltonville’s arts-and-crafts cottages and a lot of houses split into flats. Conversions are the recurring problem: one original supply now serving three homes, sub-boards added at different times and circuits that cross between dwellings so one tenant’s fault trips another’s lights. Before quoting a conversion we trace what actually feeds what, because on paper it is almost never what it turns out to be on site. The unconverted period houses tend to need the opposite, more circuits, not fewer, once a kitchen extension and a home office go in.

Chorlton questions

Asked by Chorlton customers

Can you rewire a house that has been split into flats?

Yes and it is worth doing properly. We map which board feeds which dwelling first, then separate the circuits so each flat is independent and can be certified on its own.

Do you do HMO and student certification in Chorlton?

We do, EICRs, interlinked mains-wired alarms, emergency lighting where required and the remedial work to close out failures, timed around tenancy changeovers.

Our lights trip when the neighbours use something. Why?

Usually a shared circuit left over from the conversion. It is a common find here and it is fixable, we trace it, separate it and certify each flat properly.
