Solihull
Electricians in Solihull
Solihull is a place where modern homes sit beside long-established neighbourhoods, and every property needs electrical work that is safe, tidy and reliable. R K Electrical Services supports homeowners, landlords and renovation teams across the Solihull area with professional electrical work delivered with care. Whether you live near Touchwood, around Shirley or in one of the growing new build estates, our team is ready to help with installations, upgrades and problem solving of every kind.
We bring the same level of detail and commitment that our clients know us for across the wider region. Everything is completed with a focus on safety, neat workmanship and clear communication from start to finish. We understand how important it is to keep disruptions to a minimum, especially in busy homes and rental properties. Every job, small or large, gets the same level of attention.
Security and Smart Protection
Solihull residents are increasingly choosing smart security to protect their homes. We install floodlight cameras, video doorbells and sensor lighting that help you keep an eye on your property wherever you are. The systems we set up work smoothly with your devices so you receive alerts in real time. We look at the layout of your home, the access points and the areas that need better visibility. Once we plan the setup, we install everything cleanly and make sure you know how to use the system with confidence.
Kitchen Appliance Installation
Modern kitchens rely on appliances that work efficiently and safely. We replace electric ovens, hobs of every type and cooker hoods. When your appliance reaches the point where repair is no longer worthwhile, we handle the full electrical side of fitting the new one. The goal is to get everything up and running quickly so you can get your kitchen back in use with as little disruption as possible. All work is carried out to current standards and tested before we leave.
Lighting for Every Room
Good lighting shapes the feel of a home. We help Solihull homeowners create spaces that feel comfortable, practical and inviting. Some clients want simple pendant changes. Others want feature lighting in living spaces, quiet ambient lighting for bedrooms or bright task lighting in kitchens. We also install outdoor lighting that improves security and highlights paths, patios and garden areas. Whatever your plans, we make sure the lighting is installed with care and positioned for the best effect.
Socket Additions and Upgrades
Many homes simply need more places to plug in. If you are working from home, rearranging furniture or updating a child’s bedroom, an extra socket can make a big difference. We install new double sockets, including USB options, and position them so they are useful and discreet. Every installation is completed with a tidy finish so it blends naturally into your room.
Full and Partial Rewires
Solihull has a mix of older and newer properties, and some still rely on wiring that no longer meets today's standards. We carry out both complete rewires and targeted rewiring work for rooms or extensions. This includes kitchen rewires, loft and garage conversions, garden buildings, bathroom updates and anything else that needs bringing up to a safe and modern condition. After inspecting the property, we plan the work so the rewire is efficient and as smooth as possible for everyone living there.
Fault Finding
Electrical faults can be worrying. Flickering lights, a fuse that keeps tripping or a burning smell all need quick attention. We carry out a full investigation to locate the cause. That might be damaged wiring, loose connections or moisture affecting a fitting. Once we identify the issue, we explain the best fix and complete the work safely.
Consumer Unit Improvements
Some Solihull properties still use older fuse boards that no longer offer the protection expected today. We upgrade to modern metal clad consumer units that include RCBO protection and surge protection. This brings your home in line with current BS7671 electrical regulations and provides a safer foundation for the rest of your system.
EICRs for Homes and Rentals
Both homeowners and landlords rely on accurate Electrical Installation Condition Reports. An EICR gives a clear picture of the condition of your wiring, fittings and consumer unit. If anything needs attention, we explain it in simple terms and outline the work required to bring the system up to standard. These reports are essential for rental compliance and for peace of mind in any home.
R K Electrical Services is here to support every part of your electrical project in Solihull. We focus on quality, honesty and workmanship that speaks for itself. If you need trusted local electricians who take pride in getting the job right first time, we are ready when you are.
