Electric cooker installation in Altrincham

Many cookers, ovens and hobs need hardwiring into a dedicated cooker circuit with the right cable size, rather than plugging into a socket.

We install electric cookers, ovens and hobs for homeowners and landlords across Altrincham and the surrounding areas, whether you’re replacing an old cooker or fitting a new kitchen. All work is carried out by City & Guilds qualified electricians registered for Part P Full Scope, and is tested and certified to BS 7671.

  • Freestanding and built-in electric cooker installation, including hardwiring
  • Electrical connection and testing for dual-fuel cookers; the gas must be connected by a Gas Safe engineer

Frequently asked questions

Can I install an electric cooker myself?

If it has a standard 13A plug, it can usually just be plugged in. If it needs hardwiring or a new circuit, a qualified electrician should install it.

Do electric cookers need a dedicated circuit?

Most do, especially larger ovens and induction hobs. We check your existing wiring and confirm what's needed.

Can you install a dual-fuel cooker?

Yes. We do the electrical connection and testing; the gas connection must be made by a Gas Safe registered engineer.

How long does it take?

A straightforward replacement usually takes one to two hours. A new circuit takes longer.
