"Need change socket, switch or light?
Electrician George - does it right "
Most light replacements are straightforward and don't require much preparation, but some are in a difficult area to reach, for example above a stairwell, where your ordinary ladder can't be used, hence it is important to let the electrician know where the light is located.
I can replace the following lights for you:
I also provide old fashion light replacement.
I also provide broken bulb removal from lights if your bulb is broken, light connection replacement, LED light replacement, smart lights replacement, tube light replacement, light transformer replacement, LED driver installation, kitchen lights under cabinet and any other light replacement. If you are unsure, just give me call
+447526856614
Usually, for light replacements I will need the location of light, for example if you can snap a picture of the light's location in relation to the floor, what light you want replaced and a picture of the new light or a link to it so I can check specs. (weight for example)
When you need a light in your wardrobe, cupboard or cabinet, but you don't want electricity in your wardrobe or in your children's cabinet where children have access to, then I can provide a safe solution to install battery powered or rechargeable lights. I can supply and install cabinet lights for wardrobes, cupboards, any storage areas, or even in garden sheds or summer houses where there is no access to electricity.
I am often called to replace switches due to upgrades, but also due to worn out contacts inside or broken fascia. I provide switch replacement services for the following switches:
For wall switch replacements, please indicate if the light is linked to multiple switches or just one switch. Also, in case of replacing a switch with plastic fascia for the switch with metal fascia, please let me know.
Changing pull cord switches are one of my most commonly asked for jobs and often the only switch permitted in the bathroom, hence it is important that the switch functions properly at all times.
There are three most common parts that break:
If your light flickers when you turn the dimmer, it's time for a new dimmer. I provide:
Please let me know if you are buying dimmers or switches yourself, so I can drive straight to yours, or if you need me to buy some for you, then I will need notice in advance to source the correct dimmers.
In case you want replace a regular switch for dimmer, please check what bulbs you have before buying dimmers.
There are installers around, but not all them have enough knowledge about dimmers, hence I am called so often to rectify flickering or broken dimmers, so here I summarized the most important facts you need to know to get a proper dimmable light.
I provide electrical socket replacement services. Most power socket replacements are required in Windsor, perhaps due to the amount of old houses in need of updates, and I am also called for socket repair in Slough and Maidenhead. I replace electrical sockets either where required due to update, but also due to damage or a switch breaking.
In recent years, many people require electrical outlets wit USB sockets to charge their mobile phones and also power sockets with a wifi repeater. I suggest to measure the depth of your power socket body as they are usually deeper and don't always fit in back-box in the wall.
Please bear in mind that during power plug replacements, there will be no power, so it is best to schedule these services during daytime.
Some people prefer to do jobs around the house themselves, particularly hanging pictures or shelves on walls... and it's great, but people often forget to check for cables in the wall, so when the customer drills into a wall and hits a power cable, it usually makes a spark, sometimes with a loud effect and a blown fuse. I get calls where the words 'sparking' and 'blown fuses' dominate a lot. It is a stressful situation when it happens. Do not panic, just give me call, I will help you out.
I have done repairs after people accidentally drilled to a cable in the wall. You can see on the image here how the cable in the wall looks like when a customer accidentally drilled through cable and called me for repair. I cut out a hole - the size of electrical back box, installed it, joint the cable and put a blank plate over. It could have been plastered over, but it is better if it is accessible, just in case you need access in future .

I had a fantastic experience with George! While I was away, there was a broken curtain rail at my Airbnb, and I was feeling quite panicky because I had guests staying there. I didn't want them to have an evening without bedroom curtains. However, George quickly responded to the situation and did a brilliant job fixing the curtain rail. He saved the day for me and my guests, and I couldn't be more grateful for his prompt and professional service. I highly recommend George for anyone needing reliable help with their Airbnb or any other handyman tasks! ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ |

George has been a life saver for us many times since we moved into our first house in 2020. As first time owners, there were many things we didn’t know how to do, such as installing appliances, installing blocblinds on vlux windows, installing ceiling speakers, mounting large tvs, drilling and mounting on brick, securing stair gates, electrical issues, etc etc. the list goes on. Handyman George has come out to help us move in and get settled in our home and continues to help us to this day as we make updates and changes. He’s really thoughtful and thorough, and always finds clever solutions to tricky problems. I can always trust the job is done right and reliable when George does it, which is super important as many of things in my house must stand the test of young children: both sturdy and safe. Many thanks for all your help in the past couple of years. ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ |
