Electrical work in Murton
Conservation area village
Murton's conservation area covers the historic village core, and the properties here are a mix of period and more modern. As with any rural village, the electrics in older homes may have been added to over the years, different cable types, a fuse board that's been extended beyond its original capacity, and circuits that aren't properly protected. An EICR is the best way to find out what you're dealing with.
Outdoor lighting and rural living
Rural properties in Murton often benefit from good outdoor lighting, security lights with PIR sensors, pathway lighting, or lights for outbuildings and driveways. I design outdoor installations that are rated for the conditions, properly earthed, and don't look like a prison compound.
“Great job installing outside lights, clever motion sensor solution, and under shelf lighting too.”

Common questions
Can you install outdoor lights that don't blind the neighbours?
Absolutely, and I'm glad you asked. I use PIR sensors with adjustable sensitivity and range, angled to cover your property without flooding next door's garden. LED floodlights with lower wattage can be surprisingly effective when positioned properly. I'll advise on the right setup for your property.
We want power to our detached garage — is that a big job?
Not usually. I'll run armoured cable (SWA) from your consumer unit to a small board in the garage. Most installations take half a day to a day depending on distance and what you need inside. Fully certified and notified to building control.
