Questions about switch & socket installation

Can you add a socket where there is none?

Often yes, depending on the wall and wiring. Describe the location and what you plan to plug in.

Why is my socket warm?

A warm or discoloured socket can point to a loose connection or overload. Stop using it and have it inspected.

Can you add sockets to an existing room?

Often yes. Wall type and existing wiring affect how it is done, so describe the room and we will advise.

Do you replace old switches with modern ones?

Yes. You can enquire about replacing worn switches and sockets with new ones.
