19 miles from the workshop
Electricians in Burgess Hill
Estate houses from the sixties onwards, a council with its energy targets written down, and a UK Power Networks address for every charger we fit — Burgess Hill is a straightforward town for an electrician and we treat it that way.
In short
An electrician in Burgess Hill from Solar Squirrel means the NICEIC-registered team that fits and certificates our solar systems doing the everyday electrical work too: consumer unit changes, extra circuits, lighting, outdoor power and fault-finding, 19 road miles from our Washington workshop. Every circuit we add is certificated by the people who did the work. No price list — a quote follows a look at the board and the house, and we say at the door if the fault you rang about is a symptom of something bigger.
What we take into account in Burgess Hill
The house, the board and the street decide an electrical job here more than the thing you rang about does. These are the ones that decide it in Burgess Hill.
The local facts behind a Burgess Hill quote
- Approximately 19 road miles north-east of Washington via the A24 and A272, a little under half an hour outside the school run.
- The network operator is UK Power Networks, who receive the notification for a new car-charging point or a supply upgrade; the MPAN on your bill confirms it.
- A built-up-area population of 33,352 at the 2021 Census across six wards — Dunstall, Franklands, Leylands, Meeds & Hammonds, St Andrews and Victoria — with Hassocks and Hurstpierpoint covered from this page.
- Mid Sussex District Council voted on 2 November 2022 to take its own operations to net zero by 2040 and points residents to the Warmer Homes scheme — worth knowing when an electrical visit is the first step towards a charger or storage.
- Estate layouts from the sixties onwards: the usual job is an additional circuit for an extension or a garden room, a consumer unit that predates the house’s last owner, or a charging supply on the drive.
The Burgess Hill list
Consumer unit changes with the certificate, on boards that have had two extensions added to them since they were fitted. Extra circuits for kitchens, garden offices and the loft conversion the estate was never designed for. Outdoor power and lighting. Fault-finding, which is mostly patience with a meter and the honesty to say when the fault is the board. And charging points on the drive, where the integral garage has usually become a room and the supply route has to be thought about.
The charger and the roof are the same team: EV charger installation and solar panels in Burgess Hill, with UK Power Networks notified by us.
Hassocks, Hurstpierpoint and the paperwork
Hassocks and Hurstpierpoint, a few miles south on the B2116, are covered from this page by the same electricians. Every circuit we add is certificated by the people who fitted it and notifiable work is notified through our own registration. Our general electrical work page has the full list and what a visit looks like; electricians in Haywards Heath, four miles north, and electricians in Horsham are the neighbouring pages.
Two things people in Burgess Hill ask before they book
“The garage is a bedroom now — where does the charger go?”
That is the most common Burgess Hill question and it is answered at the survey: the supply route from the board to the drive decides it, not the catalogue. We tell you what is possible before anything is ordered.
“Can an extra circuit go on my existing board?”
Often, and we will say if it cannot. A board that has run out of ways or protection gets a quote for the proper fix separately, with the reasons.
What you are not committing to
- A conversation on the phone first — ownership, the board, the fault — so no visit is wasted.
- A written quote with the reasons in it, and a separate line for anything we think the board needs that you did not ask for.
- If the honest answer is “leave it alone”, you hear it.
- The same electricians do the work and sign the certificate: MCS certified · NICEIC Approved Contractor.
