Electrician in Swanage

Dorset Council counted 1,032 second homes in Swanage in November 2022, roughly seventeen per cent of the town's housing, and that count excludes properties taxed as holiday businesses. A large share of BH19 work therefore happens in a house nobody is living in that week, which changes access, keys and who can authorise a decision.

The building stock is mostly Purbeck stone cottages and resort era villas, with later housing at New Swanage and Herston. EICRs start at £110, consumer unit replacement at £500 and electric radiators at £145 per heater. Fault finding, lighting and rewiring run at £70 per hour.
