    I contacted GCL Electrical requesting assistance with an electrical issue that I had, they sent an electrical engineer out promptly to solve my lighting problem. Absolutely saved the day! I was unaware that my personal safety was at risk but now it's been resolved. Thank you to Marc and the team.

  • Sara Blair

    What a great Company to work with. Was recommend to us by my a friend. So glad I found Marc and his team to update my existing downstairs lighting system. All looks very posh and all done within my budget. Thanks Galvanize Contracts. I'll certainly use you again!!

  • Aaron Webster

    Recently had Marc and the team complete a rewiring on my house as it was outdated, as well as adding in additional sockets and outdoor lighting. The work was completed to a high standard, on time and to the original agreed price. The team were friendly and helpful, keeping me up to date with where they were up to at different stages of the work. When they left, the house was left clean and tidy (which i have found is a rarity). I would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

Our NAPIT-accredited electrical contractors are on call 24/7 for emergency call-outs, electrical repairs and maintenance, and design and installation projects. From adding a single socket to rewiring, we can tackle jobs of all sizes and scopes.

Much of our work comes from recommendations; please see our recent reviews. One customer said:

We called GCL Electrical to install some outside lighting. They came along, looked at our garden, and proposed a lighting scheme. We were blown away with the end result, and the trees have never looked so good. I can’t wait until the warmer weather to show our garden off. Thank you, GCL – will be in touch soon for other works.

    Rewires Bexleyheath

    Do you need full or partial rewiring services? If you are buying a new home, it is recommended that you look at the electrics before committing to buying. If the electrics are over 20 years old, they will likely need to be updated or upgraded to ensure they meet current standards.

    There are many signs that your property may need rewiring, including dimming or flickering lights, frequently tripping circuit breakers, and two-prong sockets.

    How long does a rewire take?

    During a rewire, all parts of your electrical system, including all wiring, lighting, and outlets, will be updated. This process is fully intrusive and normally takes a few days to complete. Rewires most commonly take place when the property is vacant.

    How much will it cost to rewire my property?

    The cost of rewiring will depend on a number of factors, including the size of your home and the number of outlets. We are always happy to provide free and no-obligation quotes.

    What are the benefits of rewiring?

    Rewires will always improve the safety of your residential or commercial property and reduce the risk of electrical fires, short circuits or accidental electric shocks. Older systems do not have the capacity to deal with increased electrical usage, so our team can future-proof your electrics and boost the value of your property in the process.

    New fuseboard installed near Bexleyheath

    Consumer unit replacements in Bexleyheath

    Do you have an old fuse board and need a new consumer unit? Old fuse boards have a life expectancy of around 30 years, and after that, they will need to be replaced. Modern consumer units contain Residential Current Devices (RCDs), improving safety.

    Are your breakers tripping frequently, or do you hear buzzing or strange noises? These are signs that you may need a new consumer unit.

    Do I need a fuse board upgrade?

    If you have an old-style fuse box with a wooden back or cast iron switches, your consumer unit will need to be replaced as soon as possible. If you do not have RCDs, you will be more at risk of electric shocks.

    When do people upgrade their consumer units?

    Any rewire will include a fuse box replacement. It is also common for customers to upgrade their fuse box if they are completing work on their home, such as completing an extension or loft conversion.

    During an EICR, we conduct thorough checks on circuits, sockets, light fittings, and consumer units. This includes ensuring the working condition of circuits and cables, identifying poor electrical work, checking the condition of the consumer unit, determining the need for additional earthing, and assessing if any checked electrical equipment poses a shock risk. A comprehensive report outlining these findings is provided upon completion of the EICR.

    EICRs are crucial in revealing poorly installed wiring and equipment, as well as damage from wear and tear. Addressing these issues proactively can prevent electrical faults, the risk of electric shock, and fires stemming from faulty electrical equipment.
