Extension electrical work in Talke
- 01
Fitting in with the build
Electrical work in an extension happens in stages. We fit cables and back boxes once the walls and roof are up but before plastering, then return near the end for sockets, switches and lights. Getting the timing right with your builder avoids cutting into new plaster.

Checking your supply can cope
An extension adds load to your home, especially if it includes a kitchen, underfloor heating or a utility room. We check your consumer unit has space and suitable protection, and whether the main supply can take the extra demand, before the build reaches first fix.

Sign-off for building control
Building control will want to see that the electrical work meets the regulations before they sign off your extension. We register notifiable work through our NICEIC scheme and give you the Electrical Installation Certificate to pass on to your inspector.
What to expect from extension electrical work
We look at the plans with you, agree positions for sockets, switches, lights and any heating controls, and check the existing consumer unit. You receive a free quote that splits the work into first fix and second fix, so it lines up with your builder's schedule.
At first fix, we run cables through the timber frame or blockwork and fit back boxes. Once plastering is done, we fit the accessories, connect the circuits and test everything. The certificate is ready for building control when the extension is finished.

Extension electrical work questions
When do I need an electrician for my extension in Talke?
Get in touch while the plans are being finalised, so we can check your supply and plan the layout. On site, we are needed for first fix once the walls and roof are up, and again for second fix after plastering. Your builder will usually tell you when each stage is near.
Will my extension near Audley need a new consumer unit?
Not always. If your current board has spare ways and RCD protection, the new circuits can often be added to it. If it is old, full or has no RCDs, a new consumer unit may be needed. We check this early, so it is included in your budget.
Can you wire a loft conversion in Kidsgrove?
Yes. A loft conversion needs new lighting, sockets and often a heating or extractor circuit, plus mains-linked smoke detection that building control will check. We plan the wiring around the new rooms and the stairs and certify the work when it is finished.
Can you work with my builder on an extension in Stoke-on-Trent?
Yes. We work alongside builders on extensions across Stoke-on-Trent and the surrounding towns. We agree the dates for first and second fix with them, keep to the plan and let them know as soon as the electrical work is ready for the next stage.
