Why heritage installations in Wells is different

Wells is a small cathedral city, schools, surgeries, professional offices and a high concentration of period stone properties. Work here mixes domestic refurbs in BA5 villages (Wookey, Croscombe, Dinder) with commercial fit-out for surgeries and small offices.

Wells stock is a mix of cathedral-yard period buildings, 1930s-50s suburb housing in BA5 outskirts, and small commercial premises around the Market Place.

Wells has a lot of Grade II Listed and conservation-area stock. We handle the conservation officer side cleanly, chase-free routes, surface-fix where needed, full LBC documentation.

How we price heritage work in Wells

No two period properties are the same, so we don't publish prices. 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 price in writing.

Common questions

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

Yes, heritage electrical work is the bulk of what we do across Wells 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.
