Electrical services
What we install.
EV chargers
Home charge points on a wall or post, with their own circuit. Charge points sold in Great Britain must have smart functions under the Smart Charge Points Regulations 2021.
Consumer units
An old fuse box replaced with a modern consumer unit with RCD or RCBO and surge protection. Replacing a consumer unit is notifiable under Part P.
Fire and smoke alarms
Mains-wired, interlinked smoke and heat alarms. A loft conversion needs mains-powered, interlinked smoke alarms, and rented homes need a smoke alarm on every storey.
Full and partial rewiring
New circuits for older houses, refurbishments and extensions, with an Electrical Installation Certificate. Private landlords must have the electrics inspected at least every five years.
Lighting
Downlights, pendants, wall and stair lights, LED strips, and outdoor lighting for paths and gardens.
Smart home
Smart lighting scenes, heating controls, video doorbells and door entry, wired in with the rest of the installation.

Rules in the UK
Permissions and regulations.
In England, a lot of domestic electrical work, such as a new circuit, a consumer unit replacement or work in a bathroom, is notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations. It must be done by an electrician registered with a competent person scheme, or approved by building control; see Approved Document P (gov.uk) and the competent person schemes (gov.uk).
General guidance only, based on gov.uk and the Planning Portal. Your council or building control has the final say.
Things to watch
- Keep the certificates you receive: you will need them when you sell or let.

FAQ
Electrical: your questions.
Does my electrical work need to be notified to building control?
Often yes. In England, work such as a new circuit, a new consumer unit or work in a bathroom is notifiable under Part P, and is self-certified by a registered competent person or approved by building control.
How do I know if my house needs rewiring?
Warning signs include an old fuse box with rewireable fuses, rubber or fabric-covered cables, scorch marks, frequent tripping and too few sockets.
Does a loft conversion need new smoke alarms?
Yes: mains-powered, interlinked smoke alarms.
Do you give a warranty?
Yes. GONT LTD offers a 6-month warranty on its construction services. If an issue appears in that time, we come back and put it right.
