Electrical3 is based in Cromer, minutes from Palm Beach. We work on older beach houses and weekenders, many timber-framed and set on steep or stepped blocks — the faults, switchboards, lighting and EV charging that come with them.
The tip of the peninsula, and a lot of it is holiday houses that sit empty midweek. Homes that are shut up for weeks at a time show problems differently — a fault gets discovered on a Friday night arrival rather than when it starts, and switchboards, hot water and pool gear all suffer from long idle spells followed by heavy weekend use. Waterfront blocks add boatsheds and jetty power to the picture.
Salt exposure and split-level layouts are the two things that make electrical work here different. Weatherproof-rated fittings are not optional on this part of the coast, and a cheap external GPO will be failing inside a couple of winters.
No power, tripping circuits, burning smells, hot switches. We find the cause rather than replacing parts until it stops.

Steep driveways and detached garages usually mean a longer sub-main run for an EV charger, which is worth pricing properly rather than guessing. Price an EV charger →
Kitchens, bathrooms and additions — planned so the board and the circuits keep up with the new load.

Attendance and the first hour is charged at our standard rate, and you are told that number before we come. Larger work — a switchboard upgrade, downlights, an EV charger — is quoted in writing before anything starts.
