Outdoor power, lighting and sockets in Altrincham
Outdoor electrics have to cope with rain, frost and knocks, so they need installing properly. Extension leads trailing out of the back door and DIY garden wiring are a real hazard, particularly in wet weather.
We install outdoor sockets, garden lighting and security lighting across Altrincham and the surrounding areas, designed around how you actually use the space. All work is carried out by City & Guilds qualified electricians registered for Part P Full Scope, and is tested and certified to BS 7671.
What's included
- Weatherproof outdoor sockets for tools, equipment and entertaining
- Garden, path, patio and driveway lighting
- PIR motion and security lighting
- Power to sheds, greenhouses and garden storage
- RCD protection, suitably protected cable routes, testing and certification
Good to know
Built to last outside
We use weather-rated fittings for permanent outdoor use, the correct circuit protection and RCDs, and cable routes with suitable mechanical protection, so the installation stays safe year round.

Frequently asked questions
Can outdoor sockets be used all year round?
Yes. Correctly installed outdoor sockets are weatherproof and designed for permanent outside use.
Can I just use an extension lead?
Not as a permanent solution. Extension leads aren't designed for outdoor use and are a real risk in wet conditions.
Can garden lights run from an existing switch?
Often, yes. We check your existing wiring and advise on the safest, most practical set-up.
Will my fuse box need upgrading?
Possibly. If your consumer unit doesn't give the right protection, we'll tell you before any work starts.
