Why heritage installations in Bath is different

Bath is a UNESCO World Heritage Georgian conservation city, properties here often run through 600mm ashlar stone walls, lath-and-plaster ceilings and original cornice. Cable routes need planning before chases are cut, and Listed-property work means careful coordination with conservation officers. We document everything for LBC applications.

Bath properties are typically Georgian, Victorian or Edwardian stock with original wiring still in service.

Heavy rental, holiday-let and short-let market, work in Bath often coincides with the 5-yearly EICR. We can combine visits as one job and issue all certs together.

How we price heritage work in Bath

No two period properties are the same, so we don't publish a price list. The price depends on access, cable routes, the existing wiring, the scope and the time on site. We look at the building first, then give you a fixed written quote.

Common questions

Can you work on a Listed property in Bath without damaging original fabric?

Yes, heritage electrical work is the bulk of what we do across Bath and the rest of east/central Somerset. Approach: minimal-intervention cable routes (under floorboards, in joist voids, behind existing skirting), surface clip-direct on stone walls where chases would damage fabric, period-style conduit where surface-fix has to look right, and full coordination with the conservation officer or architect before any first-fix. We document everything for the LBC application.

Do I need Listed Building Consent for electrical work?

For Grade I, Grade II* and most Grade II Listed properties, usually yes for anything beyond like-for-like replacement. We help write the supporting note describing cable routes, fixings and reinstatement. The local authority conservation officer normally signs off straightforward rewires within a few weeks; complex jobs may need a heritage statement.

Can you match period fittings, brass, Bakelite, dolly switches?

Yes. We work regularly with period-look ranges (brass, antique copper, Bakelite-style dolly switches) and specialist suppliers for one-offs. If you're matching an existing scheme, Soho Lighting, Dowsing & Reynolds, Forbes & Lomax, let us know at survey and we'll quote on the actual fittings.
