Below you will find a list of the questions I get asked on a regular basis.
We aim to respond quickly and book most small jobs within 1–2 weeks, depending on availability. Larger projects like kitchen rewires or consumer unit upgrades may require a bit more lead time. If you’re in Norwich or nearby areas like Hethersett or Little Plumstead, get in touch — we’ll always try to fit you in promptly.
In many cases, yes! For small jobs or kitchen upgrades, a few clear photos or a basic floor plan sent via WhatsApp or email can help us give you a quick ballpark quote. For more complex work like rewires, we’ll usually arrange a short site visit in or around Norwich.
Yes — we offer outdoor lighting solutions for driveways, patios, steps, and porches. Whether you’re in Taverham or Mulbarton, we can install dusk-to-dawn lights, PIR sensors, or stylish garden lighting to improve both safety and security in the darker months.
Rewiring can be disruptive, especially in older properties, but we do everything we can to keep things clean, safe, and well-organised. We protect flooring and surfaces and explain each stage clearly. Many homes across Norwich, Drayton, and Poringland have trusted us for full and partial rewires.
Yes — we regularly install dedicated circuits for hot tubs, outdoor buildings, and summer houses across Norwich, Hellesdon, and nearby villages like Horsford and Brundall. We ensure it’s all done safely, with correct RCD protection and weatherproof fittings.
No — Norfolk Current is not VAT registered, which means there’s no extra tax added to your quote. The price you’re given is the final price you pay. This is especially helpful for homeowners trying to manage a renovation or rewire budget.
Absolutely — we regularly work alongside kitchen installers and can visit before or during the renovation to install or upgrade cooker circuits, move sockets, or add under-unit lighting. We serve homeowners across Norwich, Cringleford, and the surrounding villages.
Yes — we replace and install smoke, heat, and carbon monoxide alarms to current British Standards. Whether it’s a small flat in Norwich or a larger home in Mulbarton, we ensure alarms are correctly positioned, interlinked (if required), and suitable for the property.
Yes — we install modern USB and USB-C charging sockets as part of kitchen upgrades, bedroom rewires, or even as small standalone jobs. Popular across Norwich and places like Taverham and Hethersett, these sockets are great for reducing clutter and keeping your devices charged.
If your fuse box still has rewireable fuses, looks outdated, or trips frequently, it may be time for an upgrade. We often see old units in homes across Norwich, Sprowston, and Wymondham that don’t meet modern safety standards. Send in a picture is a great first step by Email or WhatsApp.
We mainly work with homeowners in Norwich and surrounding areas, but we also carry out work for landlords, letting agents, and small commercial clients. Whether it’s a rented flat in Hellesdon or a shop unit in Wymondham, we’ll make sure your electrical work is up to standard.
We operate Monday to Friday only. While we don’t offer emergency callouts, we’re happy to take calls or messages outside working hours to book you in. We always try to be flexible and responsive, even if we’re not on-site over the weekend.
Yes — we install outdoor power and lighting for gardens, patios, summer houses, and hot tubs. Whether you’re in Thorpe St Andrew, Drayton, or Little Plumstead, we can help bring safe, weatherproof power to your outdoor space.
Definitely. Kitchen alterations are one of our specialist services. We regularly install new cooker circuits, extra sockets, under-cabinet LED lighting, extractor fan connections and more across Norwich, Wymondham, Hethersett, and nearby villages.

Yes — all quotes are free of charge, whether it’s for a small job or a full rewire. The only exception is our visual fuse box inspection, which costs £45 — but that fee is waived if you go ahead with the work we quote for.
We’re happy to take on small jobs like replacing sockets, upgrading lights, or adding outdoor sockets. Our minimum charge is £90, which covers most small jobs within Norwich and nearby towns like Mulbarton, Brundall, or Costessey. Get in touch for a free quote — we’ll let you know if your job fits into this category.
Absolutely — consumer unit (fuse box) upgrades are one of our most requested services. Whether your old fuse board is outdated, overloaded, or simply due for an upgrade, we install modern, 18th Edition-compliant FuseBox units with RCBO protection and surge protection as standard. We serve all areas of Norwich and surrounding villages.

We regularly work in places like Wymondham, Hethersett, Taverham, Cringleford, Sprowston, Poringland, Drayton, and more.
