Much of Gateshead is post-war brick and tile. Homes of that age often have too few power points, a small old board and outdoor fittings the weather has eaten.
One tenant reported an oven door that came apart every time it was opened. At another Gateshead rental we supplied and replaced the wall oven, upgraded that circuit to a safety switch (RCBO), tested it and left the appliance book with a note for the tenant.

No picture at all. The amplifier on the roof had filled with water after a cable tie failed, so we replaced it and its power supply, then tested the signal at every point in the house.
TV and data points >
We upgraded the sauna supply to a three phase circuit, fitted a new safety switch at the board and a weatherproof isolator outside, then wired the heater control box, temperature sensor and light.
Switchboards >Tell us what is going on. We ring you back, usually the same day.
A fixed downlight points at the floor and nowhere else. We fitted the owner's conversion kits to two of them, which turns each one into an adjustable spotlight without cutting the ceiling again.

We replaced the old weatherproof outlet with a double outlet on a mounting block, so it sits flat and sheds water, then added a second double outlet as well.
Power points >
Tenant reports answered, ovens and cooktops replaced, compliance paperwork sent through.

Read more >Yes. We remove the old oven, supply and fit the new one, test it, and issue a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW) with photos for the agent's file.
Often the amplifier on the roof has let water in. At one Gateshead home a failed cable tie had let the masthead amplifier fill with water, so we replaced it and the power supply and retested the signal inside.
Often yes. At a Gateshead property we upgraded the sauna supply to a three phase circuit, with a new safety switch (RCBO) at the board and a weatherproof isolator outside.
Yes. We fit a weatherproof double outlet on a mounting block so it sits flat and sheds water, and we can move one that was put in a poor spot.
Tell us what is going on. We will ring you back, usually the same day.
