Electrical work in Pensby, Thingwall & Irby
Pensby, Thingwall and Irby fill the middle of the Wirral between Heswall and Greasby. The streets are mostly 1950s to 1970s bungalows, dormer bungalows and semis, with older cottages around Irby village and Barnston, and larger homes up towards Thurstaston Common and its red sandstone outcrop, Thor's Stone.
Many homes here still have their original or 1980s fuse boards and wiring. Typical jobs are consumer unit upgrades, extra sockets, brighter LED lighting, linked smoke alarms and EV chargers as households switch to electric cars.

Questions from Pensby, Thingwall & Irby
Is my bungalow's 1970s wiring safe?
PVC cable from the 1970s is often still in good condition, but older fuse boards usually lack RCD protection and there are rarely enough sockets. An EICR will tell you exactly where you stand, and a new consumer unit is often all that's needed.
Can you wire a dormer loft conversion?
Yes. Carl adds new circuits for lighting, sockets and heating, linked smoke alarms on the stairs and landing, and certifies everything.
Do you cover Thurstaston and Barnston?
Yes, along with Heswall Hills and the rest of CH61.
