What's involved

Outdoor circuits fail for predictable reasons - unrated fittings, unglanded cable and no RCD protection. Water finds all three, which is why so many garden circuits trip every winter.

Garden offices and workshops need more than a socket on the end of a lead. We install the armoured supply, a small sub-board, sockets and lighting, then test and certify the whole lot.

Included as standard

  • Weatherproof IP-rated external sockets and switches
  • Garden, patio, decking and driveway lighting
  • PIR and dusk-to-dawn security lighting
  • Armoured cable supplies to sheds, garages and garden offices
  • Sub-boards, testing and full certification for outbuildings

Common questions

Can you run power to my garden office or shed?

Yes - buried armoured cable, correct earthing, a sub-board and full certification, all included in the estimate.

Do outdoor sockets need special protection?

They do. We fit IP-rated weatherproof accessories on RCD-protected circuits so the installation stays safe and stops nuisance tripping.
