Planning electrics for a home extension

Electrical decisions are easiest and cheapest to coordinate before walls, insulation and finishes close the available routes.
By Truvo Electrical Solutions

Plan furniture, kitchen appliances, lighting layers, switches, data, smoke alarms, heating controls and outdoor connections from the intended use of each space.

What to consider

The existing consumer unit, supply capacity, earthing and circuit arrangements need assessment. An extension may also be the right time to plan EV charging, solar or a garden building.

Warning signs and safe next steps

Record locations on drawings and agree accessory finishes, testing, certification and making good. Late changes can affect both cost and programme.

What helps Truvo assess the job?

Provide a clear description of the problem or planned work, the Sheffield postcode, access details and safe photographs of finished equipment only. Never remove a screwed cover or expose electrical parts for a photograph.

From initial advice to a quotation

An online enquiry can establish the likely scope, but a formal quotation follows review of the property details and any necessary inspection or testing. Every installation is different, so final design and price must reflect the actual conditions.
