Rated 5.0 from 24 Google reviews.
Midsomer Norton is the larger of the two Somer Valley towns, with around 12,000 people in the parish. The River Somer runs the length of the town centre, and a flood alleviation tunnel was built in the 1970s to protect it. The town’s older buildings include the Church of St John the Baptist, the 1860 Town Hall and The Priory, which dates from the 17th century.
Like Radstock, it was a mining town. Old Mills, Norton Hill and Welton collieries all worked here; Norton Hill and Old Mills closed in 1966. Welton, once a separate hamlet, is now part of the town. The paper-bag factory there announced the closure of its Welton site in 2011, and the move went ahead in 2013.
The town now spreads along the Fosse Way through Westfield towards Radstock, with large estates built either side of the road in the 1970s and newer developments since.
Older stone and brick terraces near the centre and in Welton are where rewires and bonding upgrades come up most. The 1970s estates are a different job: the wiring often tests well, but the boards are original or early split-load types, and the kitchen, bathroom and loft have usually been altered since. New homes mostly need additions: EV chargers, outside power, garden rooms.
After any leak or water damage, insulation resistance tests show whether wiring that got wet is safe to use.

Homes and landlords
Commercial and security
Chilcompton. On the B3139 towards Wells, close to the A37, where the River Somer rises in small streams. See our Chilcompton page.
Stratton-on-the-Fosse. Straddling the Fosse Way, with Downside Abbey and its 55-metre tower above the village. See our Stratton-on-the-Fosse page.
Holcombe. A former mining parish including the hamlets of Barlake and Edford. See our Holcombe page.
Coleford. On the Mells River in the Mendip Hills, about five and a half miles west of Frome. See our Coleford page.
Paulton. A large village where the Somerset Coal Canal ended at Paulton basin. See our Paulton page.
Farrington Gurney. A village of around 900 people at the foot of the Mendips, around the junction of the A37 and A362, about two miles north-west of Midsomer Norton. Its colliery worked from about 1738 until 1923. We cover the village for EICRs, board changes and EV chargers.
High Littleton. On the A39 where it crosses the A37, with Hallatrow in the same parish. Greyfield Colliery worked here from 1833 to 1911. The village has a Grade II church and other listed buildings.
Temple Cloud. On the A37 about five miles from Midsomer Norton. The Old Court, a former magistrates’ court with police cells built in 1857, is one of several listed buildings. On any older property, an EICR is a sensible first step before alterations.
Clutton. On the eastern edge of the Chew Valley near the Cam Brook, with a Grade II* church and the remains of an Iron Age hillfort on Highbury Hill. The Earl of Warwick built Maynard Terrace here for mine workers. We test, rewire and fit chargers across the village.
A line about the job and a phone number is enough. We call back the same working day where we can.
Radstock adjoins Midsomer Norton, and we cover both as one area. For Frome and the villages towards Bath, see those pages, or the full list of areas.
