Something else

For work that doesn’t fit neatly into the above.

Tell us what you need when booking. If it’s domestic, small and electrical, there’s a good chance we can help. If it clearly needs a bigger job, we’ll say so.

A visit, not a quote

Most electrical firms need to see a job, price it, and fit it into a diary built around bigger projects. For a cracked socket or a single light fitting, that process can take weeks and often never happens at all.

Hour Electric works differently. You book the electrician’s time, describe the jobs, and they arrive prepared. Small work is the work we’re here for.

Some jobs need more than an hour.

We’ll always be straight with you. These are better handled with a survey and quotation:

  • full rewires
  • major renovation projects
  • extensive new circuits
  • large consumer unit projects
  • large commercial installations
  • work requiring extensive investigation
  • specialist installations

If a booking clearly needs more time, we’ll advise you about a longer booking or a quotation before any additional work is carried out.
