Electricians in Godalming
Quality electrical work in the first town on Earth lit by public electricity, a heritage we take personally.
Electrical Services in Esher
In 1881, Godalming became the first town in the world with a public electricity supply, its streetlamps powered by a waterwheel on the Wey. We think about that more than is probably healthy because it means electrical standards in this town are literally historic. Today’s Godalming pairs that heritage with lovely period housing: steep streets of cottages off the High Street, Victorian villas towards Charterhouse, and village stock through Farncombe, Milford and Witley that keeps our period-property skills sharp.
Period property rewiring
Godalming’s cottages and villas: timber frames, thick stone walls, conservation streetscapes need rewiring done the careful way. It’s a speciality of ours.
Garden lighting & outdoor power
Gardens running down towards the Wey and the Lammas lands: lit beautifully, wired properly.
