Northfleet sits alongside Gravesend and shares much of the same housing character — older terraced and semi detached properties that form the bulk of the residential stock, with a significant rental sector alongside owner occupied homes. We replaced a consumer unit on a semi in Northfleet recently where the owner had bought the property a year earlier and finally got round to the fusebox, which had been flagged at the time of purchase. Old rewirable MEM unit, no RCD, circuits that had been extended informally over the years. We replaced it, rationalised the circuits, and left the owner with a clean installation and a full certificate.
I am George, I run Eru Electrics Ltd, and I am a NICEIC registered electrician with 25 years of experience and a Which? Trusted Trader. We cover Northfleet and the surrounding area including Gravesend, Swanscombe, and Rosherville.
Northfleet also has a proportion of properties where DIY electrical work has been carried out over the years — visible in junction boxes that should not exist, cables clipped in unusual places, and consumer units with circuits that do not correspond to what is actually in the property. We trace and correct all of it.

A survey flagged my fusebox when I bought — how urgent is it to replace?
If it is a rewirable unit it has been worth replacing for some time. Heat damage, corroded fuse carriers, and the absence of RCD protection are all reasons to act sooner rather than later.
My property has some DIY electrical work from a previous owner — is that a problem?
It can be. DIY wiring is not always dangerous but it is often not compliant and sometimes not correctly protected. We assess it honestly and tell you what needs addressing.
How quickly can you get to Northfleet?
Within the week. My PA will confirm the time.
Do you carry out EICRs in Northfleet?
Yes regularly. We cover Northfleet and Gravesend as a matter of course.
Do I get paperwork after a consumer unit replacement?
Yes. All notifiable work is certified through our NICEIC registration.
If a survey flagged something or you want to know what the electrics in your Northfleet property are actually like, call and I will give you a straight answer.
