When electrical work is needed in Hampshire, customers usually want a local company that will respond, explain the options properly and complete the work neatly. That is the service Wessex Electrical Services Ltd is built around. We help with testing, fault finding, consumer-unit upgrades, lighting, sockets and a wide range of everyday electrical work.
Back to topWessex Electrical Services Ltd is based in Alton and covers a practical service area of roughly 20 miles across north and east Hampshire. That includes market towns, villages, rural hamlets and parts of the Winchester, Basingstoke, Farnham and Petersfield areas. We do not claim to cover every corner of the county; our focus is delivering a dependable local service within a sensible travelling distance of our base.
The area contains everything from historic cottages and farmhouses to modern estates, rental properties, shops, offices and light industrial premises. Electrical work therefore ranges from replacing a single accessory to testing a complete installation, upgrading distribution equipment or designing supplies for extensions and outbuildings.
The electrical services we provide in Hampshire cover inspection, repair, alteration and installation. That may involve checking an older installation, replacing an outdated fuse board, improving lighting, adding sockets, fitting extractor fans, upgrading smoke detection, installing outdoor power or resolving a fault that another contractor has not been able to identify.
Back to topWhere there is limited paperwork or no clear history of previous electrical work, an EICR can remove much of the uncertainty. We inspect and test the installation methodically, classify any observations correctly and avoid turning every age-related feature into an automatic recommendation for replacement.
Back to topThe consumer unit is the main point of control and protection for the circuits in a property. An older board is not automatically unsafe, but it may lack the level of RCD, RCBO or surge protection expected in a modern installation. We assess the existing equipment and explain whether an upgrade is justified, rather than recommending replacement without first considering the wider condition of the electrics.
Back to topNot every customer needs a rewire or a large installation. Often the priority is a collection of smaller jobs that have built up over time: a loose socket, poor lighting, a noisy fan, a faulty switch or a circuit that trips occasionally. We are happy to assess these items and deal with them efficiently rather than leaving customers struggling to find an electrician interested in smaller work.
Back to topOur specialist priorities are EICRs, consumer-unit and fuse-board upgrades and small electrical jobs done properly. Around those core services, we also provide fault finding, lighting, sockets, smoke alarms, extractor fans, outdoor electrics, new circuits and electrical work for kitchens, bathrooms, garages and garden rooms. Commercial customers can contact us for maintenance, testing and installation work within our service area.
Back to topOur approach is based on doing the basics properly. We respond to enquiries, provide written quotations, carry out the work carefully and leave customers with the correct paperwork. As a NAPIT-registered, fully insured, Which? Trusted Trader and Trading Standards approved contractor, we provide additional reassurance for customers inviting us into their home or business.
By keeping the service area centred on Alton, we can offer local knowledge and realistic appointment planning rather than presenting ourselves as a county-wide call centre. Customers deal with an established Hampshire electrical contractor that has traded since 2006.
