Why Bath is different

Bath is a UNESCO World Heritage Georgian conservation city — wiring here often runs through 600mm ashlar stone walls, around lath-and-plaster ceilings and behind original cornice. Cable routes need planning before chases are cut, and Listed-property work means careful coordination with conservation officers.

The rental and holiday-let market is heavy here, so jobs often coincide with a 5-yearly EICR — we can do both as one visit and issue all certs together.

Common questions

Can you work in a Listed Bath property without conservation issues?

Yes. We've worked in Listed Georgian townhouses across central Bath. The approach is minimal-intervention cable routes (under floorboards, in joist voids, behind existing skirting), surface clip-direct on stone walls where chases would damage fabric, and full coordination with the conservation officer before first-fix. We document everything for the LBC application.

Can I run a garage on a long extension lead — or do I need an SWA submain?

An extension lead from the house is not a permanent installation — it's not BS 7671 compliant for a fixed garage circuit, and it's a real fire risk under load (a single 13A flex feeding a fridge, freezer, lights and tools will overheat). The compliant solution is an SWA armoured submain from the main consumer unit to a sub-board in the garage, with its own RCBO protection. It's the cost difference between £50 of flex and £850 of compliant install — but it's the right answer for safety, insurance and resale.

Do I need a separate sub-board in the garage?

If the garage has more than 2-3 circuits (lights, sockets, EV charger, motor) then yes — a 4 or 6-way sub-consumer-unit gives proper local isolation, RCBO discrimination and clear labelling. For a small detached garage with just lights and 2 sockets, a single circuit on its own RCBO at the main board is fine.
