Electrical work in Dunnington — what I typically see
Village mix, period and modern
Dunnington's conservation area covers the historic village centre, where Manor House Farm dates back to the mid-18th century with its Georgian details. Around this core, modern development has filled out the village. That means I see everything from outdated fuse boards in older properties to homeowners in newer houses wanting EV chargers or garden office power. An EICR is the best starting point if you're unsure about the state of your electrics.
Rural edge properties
Some Dunnington homes sit on larger plots with outbuildings, garages, and workshops that need their own electrical supply. I'll run armoured cable (SWA) from your consumer unit to give outbuildings a properly certified, dedicated circuit, not an extension lead through the rain.
Landlord properties
Dunnington has a mix of rental housing. If you're a landlord here, you need a valid EICR every five years. Given the age of the older properties, I'd recommend not leaving it until the deadline, older homes are more likely to need remedial work, and it's better to know early. I'm a YRLA Recognised Service Provider.

Common questions from Dunnington homeowners
Is Dunnington within your coverage area?
Yes, it's on the York to Stamford Bridge road and I cover it regularly. No call-out charge or travel premium.
We've got an old outbuilding we want to use as a workshop — can you wire it up?
Absolutely. I'll run armoured cable from the house, fit a small consumer unit in the outbuilding, and provide sockets, lighting, and any specialist circuits you need, all certified and notified to building control.
How much does a consumer unit upgrade cost in Dunnington?
Scoped on site (up to 6 circuits); £50+VAT per extra circuit. I fit RCBOs as standard, with individual protection per circuit, so a fault in one room doesn't trip the whole house.
I'm a landlord with a property in Dunnington — what do I need?
A valid EICR every five years and working smoke and CO alarms. As a YRLA Recognised Service Provider, I can provide the documentation your letting agent and local authority require.
Is there a travel charge for Dunnington?
No, Dunnington is within my standard York service area. No travel premium applies.
