Our electricians work closely with our kitchen fitters to make sure everything is installed in the right places. We don't just follow the plans - we think about how you'll actually use your kitchen.

Electrical Safety Standards For Your Kitchen

Your kitchen has more electrical appliances than any other room in your house. It also has water and heat, which makes electrical safety extra important.

All our electrical work follows the Building Regulations Part P. This means:

  • All work is tested and certified
  • We provide proper documentation for insurance purposes
  • Your installation meets all safety requirements
  • We notify the local building control when needed
  • You get a certificate when the work is complete

What Is Part P And Why Does It Matter?

Part P of the Building Regulations covers electrical safety in homes. In kitchens, which are considered high-risk areas, most electrical work needs to be done by a qualified professional.

If you have electrical work done by someone who isn't qualified, you might need to pay for an inspection or even have the work redone. This can delay your kitchen installation and cost you more money in the long run.

Andy, our electrician, is fully qualified to self-certify electrical work, which means you don't have to worry about extra inspections or paperwork.

Kitchen Lighting Design

Good lighting transforms a kitchen from a place where you cook to a space where you live. We design lighting schemes that are both practical and beautiful.

 

Task Lighting

This is the focused lighting that helps you see what you're doing when preparing food or cooking.

  • Under-cabinet lights to illuminate worktops
  • Pendant lights over islands and breakfast bars
  • Recessed spotlights positioned where you need them

Ambient Lighting

This creates the overall light level and mood in your kitchen.

  • Ceiling mounted lights
  • Well-placed recessed downlights
  • Dimmable options to adjust the mood

Feature Lighting

This adds personality and highlights special features in your kitchen.

  • Glass cabinet lighting
  • Plinth lighting along the bottom of units
  • Illuminated shelving

"Michael and Andy helped us design the perfect lighting for our kitchen. The under-cabinet lights make food prep so much easier, and the dimmable spotlights create the perfect atmosphere when we're having dinner." - Carole Kelly, Mansfield customer

 

Power Planning for Modern Kitchens

Modern kitchens have loads of appliances, and they all need power. Our electrical planning makes sure you have enough sockets in the right places.

 

Socket Quantity and Positioning

  • Enough sockets for all your worktop appliances
  • Dedicated sockets for fridge, freezer, dishwasher
  • USB sockets for charging phones and tablets
  • Sockets positioned where you'll actually use them

  • Electric ovens and hobs
  • Electric showers
  • High-powered items like kettles and toasters

  • Extra capacity in your consumer unit

Common Questions About Kitchen Electrical Work

 

Do I need an electrician to fit a kitchen?

Yes, for safety and legal reasons. Kitchens are classed as "high risk" areas because they contain both water and electricity. All electrical work in kitchens should be done by a qualified electrician. Our Andy is qualified to do all electrical work in your kitchen, from moving a socket to a complete rewire.

How much does kitchen electrical work cost UK?

The cost varies depending on what you need. Simple jobs like adding a couple of sockets might cost £200-£300, while a complete kitchen rewire could be £1000-£1500. We always provide a clear quote before starting work, so you know exactly what you're paying for. Give us a call for a no-obligation quote.

What electrical work is needed for a new kitchen?

This depends on your current setup and what you want in your new kitchen. Most new kitchens need:

  • New or repositioned sockets for appliances
  • Dedicated circuits for ovens and hobs
  • New lighting circuits
  • Extractor fan connection
  • Sometimes a consumer unit upgrade

When we design your kitchen, we'll advice on what electrical work is needed to make it work properley.

Can I install kitchen electrics myself?

Not really. Most electrical work in kitchens must be done by a qualified electrician who can certify the work. DIY electrical work in kitchens can be dangerous and might not meet building regulations. This could cause problems with home insurance and when selling your house. It's always best to get a professional like Andy to do it right.

How many electrical sockets should a kitchen have?

A modern kitchen should have at least 10-12 sockets. This includes:

  • 4-6 double sockets for worktop appliances (kettle, toaster, mixer, etc.)
  • Dedicated sockets for fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washing machine
  • Maybe sockets for microwaves, wine coolers, etc.
  • Possibly USB sockets for charging devices

We'll help you plan the right number and position of sockets based on how you use your kitchen.
