FAQs
Do outdoor sockets need RCD protection?
Yes – all external sockets must be protected by an RCD either at the consumer unit or socket itself.
Can I use extension leads outdoors instead?
Temporary use is okay, but for long-term solutions, a permanent outdoor socket is safer and more reliable.
Can you install power to my garden office or outbuilding?
Absolutely. We run armoured cable from your main board to your shed, summer house, or home office and install sockets and lighting as needed.
Do I need planning permission for outdoor electrics?
No – but all electrical work must comply with building regulations. We’ll take care of the legal compliance for you.
How soon can you install garden electrics?
We can usually complete small outdoor jobs within 1–3 days of quote approval. Book now to secure your preferred date.
