About Us

Local Electricians
Who Actually Care

I’m Roy, and I run Thanet Electrical. We’re based right here in Margate and we serve homes and businesses across the entire Isle of Thanet — Margate, Ramsgate, Broadstairs, Birchington, and everywhere in between.

No job is too big or too small. Work follows the latest wiring rules and is fully certified when complete.

What “extra checks” means

We work with ECA Approved Contractors so installations can be independently inspected and certified — a second pair of eyes for your safety.

Guides & instant pricing

EICR, rewire & consumer unit

Three dedicated pages: EICRs, rewires, and domestic consumer unit upgrades — each with clear guidance and calculators (where applicable) so you can get a very rough sense of cost before you book.

Honest use of the tools: all figures are a loose hook to start a chat — not a cap. After inspection, prices often rise when we find what you could not see from a form. We stay competitive, and we are not done until you are fully satisfied.

EICR

Certificates & compliance

From under £60 (portfolio) or from £69.90 standard minimum. Who needs a report, what surveyors look for, and pricing from boards and bedrooms.

Full service detail: EICR service page →

Rewire

Modern wiring & consumer units

Why upgrade, what a rewire involves, and detailed or estimate calculators — including lived-in vs empty homes.

Consumer unit

Fuse box upgrade (domestic)

Metal board, RCBO on every circuit, SPD, EV-ready spare ways — we don’t under-spec to beat the cheapest quote. Line-item guide with 25% bundled test discount. Not for commercial / industrial boards.
