What electrical work does Paul carry out in Weybridge?
The work a Weybridge home needs usually depends on its age and size, from period houses with older wiring near the town centre to large detached properties with several circuits, outbuildings and EV chargers.
Victorian and Edwardian houses
Many older houses around the town centre and Monument Green have been rewired in stages over the years, so the wiring can be a mix of ages. An EICR shows which circuits are sound and which need attention, and a partial or full rewire can be planned around original features you want to keep.
1960s and 1970s homes
Homes from this period, including estates such as Templemere, may still have some original lighting circuits. Houses wired before the late 1960s often have no earth conductor on the lighting circuits, which matters if you want metal light fittings or switches, so an inspection confirms what is there before you choose new fittings.
Large detached properties
Larger houses, such as those on and around St George's Hill, can have more than one consumer unit, long cable runs to garages, garden rooms or gyms, and heavy loads from kitchens and air conditioning. Testing is priced per consumer unit and per circuit, so you can see how the cost is worked out before Paul visits.
Newer homes and extensions
Modern homes and recent extensions usually need additions rather than repairs: an EV charger, extra sockets, outdoor power or new lighting. Our electrical services page covers this everyday work, and new circuits are certified and notified under Part P where required.
Can you install an EV charger at my Weybridge home?
Yes, Paul installs home EV chargers across Weybridge, checks your supply and consumer unit beforehand, and handles the notification to UK Power Networks, the network operator for the area.
Many installations can be assessed from photos of your meter, consumer unit and proposed charger position, with a site visit arranged where needed. If the network operator needs to upgrade your main fuse, Paul tells you before the work goes ahead.
For homes without a driveway, Paul can install a charger as part of an approved Kerbo Charge cross-pavement channel, subject to approval from Surrey County Council as the highway authority. If your home is listed or in a conservation area, it is worth agreeing the charger position before installation.

Is electrical work different in a Weybridge conservation area or listed building?
Electrical work inside a home in a conservation area does not usually need planning permission, but external fittings and any work to a listed building may need consent from Elmbridge Borough Council before it starts.
Weybridge has several conservation areas designated by Elmbridge Borough Council, including the Town Centre and Monument Green conservation areas and the Templemere estate, a 1960s development of 65 houses designated in 2017. Brooklands also has its own conservation area.
In a listed building, even small changes such as new cable routes, chased walls or replacement switches can affect its character. Historic England advises speaking to the local planning authority before any work is carried out, because unauthorised work to a listed building is a criminal offence.
How Paul approaches period properties
- Agreeing cable routes and the position of every switch, socket and light with you before work starts
- Discussing whether existing voids and cable routes can be reused to reduce chasing into original walls
- Talking through external lights, sockets and EV chargers before anything is fixed to the front of the house
- Inspecting, testing and certifying the finished work to BS 7671
If your home is listed, check with Elmbridge's planning team whether consent is needed before booking the work.

Weybridge electrician FAQs
Is there an electrician near me in Weybridge?
Yes, Bring it Ohm Electrical Solutions is based in Weybridge and covers every part of KT13, along with nearby towns such as Walton-on-Thames, Addlestone and Hersham. You deal directly with Paul, a NAPIT registered electrician with more than nine years' experience.
Do you charge a call-out fee in Weybridge?
No, there is no call-out fee and no charge for a quote in Weybridge or anywhere else in Paul's service area. Each job is quoted individually, because the cost of electrical work depends on the existing installation and what the job involves.
Do I need permission for electrical work in a Weybridge conservation area?
Internal electrical work in a conservation area does not usually need planning permission, but work to a listed building may need listed building consent and external fittings may need to be considered. Check with Elmbridge Borough Council before work starts if your home is listed or the work changes the outside of the building.
Who notifies Building Control about electrical work in Weybridge?
Paul notifies notifiable electrical work through NAPIT, his Competent Person Scheme, so you do not need to apply to Elmbridge Building Control yourself. Once the work is complete and paid for, you receive your electrical certificate, and your local authority issues the Building Regulations compliance certificate.
Who is the electricity network operator in Weybridge?
UK Power Networks is the distribution network operator for Weybridge, and Paul submits the required notifications to them for EV charger installations. If your supply needs upgrading, such as a larger main fuse, he will let you know before the work goes ahead.
Can you test a large property with more than one consumer unit?
Yes, EICRs for larger homes are priced at £60 per consumer unit plus £30 per circuit, so the cost reflects the size of the installation. Clear circuit labelling helps the inspection run efficiently, and Paul explains anything that may affect the time needed before he visits.
Do you work for landlords in Weybridge?
Yes, Paul carries out EICRs for landlords and letting agents, and private landlords in England must have the electrical installation inspected and tested at least every five years under the electrical safety standards for rented homes. He can also quote for any remedial work the report identifies.
