What Simon does
From a smart switch to a full rewire.
The full range of domestic electrical work across Berkhamsted and 30+ towns in Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire — carried out by one electrician, explained in plain English, and finished neatly. Emergency call-outs answered 24 hours a day.
01
Domestic Installations
Whether you need extra sockets, a new lighting circuit, an outside supply or a full set of circuits for a renovation, Simon plans the work, runs the cabling cleanly and tests everything before he leaves. General domestic electrical work of every kind is the backbone of what SB Electrical does — done properly, first time.
02
Full Rewires
When a property's wiring is past its best, a full rewire renews every circuit, socket, switch and light with modern cable and protection. Simon works through the house methodically, keeps disruption down and leaves you with a clean, up-to-date installation — the kind of considered work that has kept his reviews at a straight five stars.
03
24-Hour Emergency Call-Out
When something goes wrong, you need someone who answers. SB Electrical offers a 24-hour emergency call-out service across the Berkhamsted area, seven days a week. Reviewers describe Simon going the extra mile to fit urgent work in — quick to respond, and there when it matters. If it's urgent, call and Simon will tell you straight what he can do.
04
Consumer Unit / Fuse Board Replacement
A modern consumer unit protects every circuit with the right breakers and RCD protection, so a fault trips safely instead of becoming a hazard. Simon replaces outdated boards, tests and labels the installation, and explains what's changed — resolving the kind of installation problems customers phone him about, quickly and properly.
05
Smart Lighting — LIGHTWAVE
Simon designs and installs smart lighting schemes using the LIGHTWAVE system — dimmable, app-controlled and voice-ready, with smart switches that look right and behave predictably. He'll advise you on the models to buy, swap the existing switches over neatly, and set everything up on your phone before he leaves — exactly the advice-led service reviewers single out.
06
Power & Lighting Circuits
From a single socket where you always needed one to a full room of downlights or an outside supply, Simon extends and improves your power and lighting so it does what you want it to. Cables run tidily, fittings hung square, and the finish left as neat as he found it.
07
Fault Finding & Repairs
A tripping board or a dead circuit usually has one specific cause, and finding it takes method rather than guesswork. Simon diagnoses the fault, explains what's happening in plain English and puts it right — from a faulty oven element to a dangerous fitting — so the problem doesn't come back.
08
Kitchen Electrics
Kitchens ask a lot of the electrics. Simon wires ovens, hobs, extractors and appliances, adds the sockets you actually need, and fits under-cabinet and feature lighting so the room works as well as it looks. Coordinated around your fitters and finished to a standard that lasts.
09
Wet Room & Bathroom Electrics
Bathrooms and wet rooms have strict rules about where electrics can go and how they're protected. Simon installs recessed lighting, extractor fans, illuminated niches and shaver points to the correct zones and IP ratings, so your finished wet room is both beautiful and safe.
10
Home Networking
For homes where the router just won't reach every room, Simon runs data cabling and fits wired WiFi access points that give strong, reliable coverage throughout — cabling run and fittings mounted neatly, the way all his work is finished.
11
Smart Switches & Video Doorbells
See who's at the door from anywhere, and control your lights from your pocket. Simon advises on the right smart switch or video doorbell, fits it cleanly in place of the existing hardware, and gets it talking to your phone before he leaves — the friendly, knowledgeable service reviewers recommend without hesitation.
12
Outdoor & Garden Lighting
Garden wall lights, path and driveway lighting, security floods and exterior sockets — installed to the correct outdoor rating, weatherproofed and left neat. Simon has fitted everything from a single external light to full garden schemes, often alongside the smart switch that controls them.
Whatever the job, it's carried out by the same electrician who has kept a 5.0 rating across 49 Google reviews — every one of them five stars.
SB Electrical has been the local name in Berkhamsted since 2007, with most work coming by neighbour referral.
