Looking for an Electrician in Ash?

1) Electrician in Ash, Surrey for Electrical Upgrades, Testing and Repairs

I'm Darren May, the electrician behind MAYTRICS LIMITED. We carry out electrical work throughout Ash, Ash Vale, Tongham, Ash Green, Mytchett, Aldershot, Farnborough, Guildford, Bisley, Woking, Normandy and North Camp.

A recent project in Ash involved remedial works following an unsatisfactory Electrical Installation Condition Report at a commercial premises. The original recommendation was to replace a number of existing MCBs with RCBOs to improve circuit protection and address issues identified during the EICR.

After further investigation, it became clear that suitable RCBOs for the existing three-phase distribution board were obsolete and no longer readily available. The most practical long-term solution was to replace the entire three-phase distribution board, allowing the installation to be upgraded with modern protective devices and brought up to a satisfactory standard.

2) REAL EXPERIENCE WORKING IN ASH

Ash has a mixture of older village properties, established family homes, commercial premises and newer residential developments.

This means we regularly work on both older electrical installations requiring upgrades and more modern properties where homeowners are adding EV chargers, garden power, additional sockets and upgraded lighting.

The commercial distribution board replacement in Ash is a good example of why electrical work often requires proper investigation. Sometimes remedial works are straightforward, but older equipment can make replacement parts difficult or impossible to source.

In those situations, replacing the consumer unit or distribution board can be the safest and most sensible long-term option.

We are regularly asked to install additional circuits, upgrade consumer units, improve socket provision and carry out electrical alterations to support extensions, kitchen refurbishments, home offices and modern appliances.
