Serving Wigton
Your local electrician in Wigton
We cover Wigton and the surrounding north Cumbrian villages for planned electrical work, including rewires, consumer unit upgrades, solar and battery installations, EV chargers and EICRs.
Wigton is roughly 45 minutes from our Whitehaven base, so we schedule visits in advance. Call Kieran to talk through your job and he'll give you an honest timeframe.
Wigton is a traditional market town with Georgian and Victorian buildings in the centre, terraces, post-war estates and newer housing, surrounded by farmland and rural villages. Rural homes and farms often have outbuildings, long supply runs and older installations.
The Solway Plain's open, often windy landscape and rural setting mean many households are looking at solar and battery storage to reduce energy costs, alongside rewires and upgrades for older properties in town.

Local issues
Common electrical problems in Wigton
Property age, construction and local weather all affect how electrics wear. These are the issues we see most often in Wigton.
Farm and outbuilding supplies
Barns, sheds and workshops are often supplied by old or undersized cables that need replacing with safe, protected circuits.
Older town-centre properties
Georgian and Victorian buildings in Wigton's centre commonly contain ageing wiring and fuse boxes.
Rural earthing arrangements
Properties on overhead supplies may have earthing that needs testing and improving.
Energy costs in rural homes
Homes without mains gas often rely on electric heating, making solar and battery storage particularly worthwhile.
Popular jobs in Wigton
Upgrading homes and businesses in Wigton
Wigton homeowners often combine several jobs into one planned visit, such as a consumer unit upgrade with an EV charger, or a rewire with extra outdoor sockets and lighting. Grouping work keeps disruption and cost down.
Farms and rural businesses around Wigton rely on safe supplies to barns, workshops and outbuildings. We install correctly sized and protected circuits so equipment runs reliably.
Solar and battery storage suit the open Solway Plain well. A well-designed system can significantly reduce reliance on the grid for homes without mains gas.
For older properties in Wigton's town centre, an EICR is a sensible first step. It shows exactly what condition the installation is in and what, if anything, needs doing. From there, work can be prioritised so the most important safety items are dealt with first and the rest planned around your budget and timescale.
Whatever the job, you'll get the same approach: a free, no-obligation quote, a clear explanation of the work, and testing and certification on completion. Work in Wigton is backed by our NAPIT registration and workmanship guarantee.
