Electrician in Stone working on a domestic electrical installation

ABT Electrical Services Ltd works as a local electrician in Stone, covering the town centre, Walton, Aston, Stonefield, Little Stoke and the villages along the Trent & Mersey Canal. We are based in Stafford, roughly seven miles down the A34, so Stone is a short run rather than a special journey.

Whether you need a full rewire in a period property on the High Street, a fuse board swapped in a 1970s semi in Walton, an EICR for a rental, or an EV charger fitted at a new build, the work is designed, tested and certified to BS 7671 and notified under Part P where the regulations require it.

Choosing an electrician in Stone

Stone has no shortage of tradespeople passing through on the way between Stafford and Stoke, and plenty of them will quote you for a board change. The thing worth asking is what happens afterwards. We are NAPIT registered, which means the work is independently assessed, and everything is tested to BS 7671 before it goes live, with the certificate and the schedule of test results handed over rather than promised.

The other thing worth asking about in a town with this much period property is what happens when a job turns out to be bigger than it looked. Our answer is that we stop, show you what we have found, and price it before carrying on. Nobody enjoys that conversation, but it is considerably better than the invoice version of it.

Quotations are free, given in writing and carry no obligation. Electrical Safety First publishes independent guidance on choosing a registered electrician if you want to check us against it.

Property in Stone and what it needs

Stone is an unusually mixed town electrically, and that matters when you are pricing work. The centre is a conservation area with Georgian frontages and Victorian terraces, much of it listed or in the curtilage of listed buildings. Installations there are often a patchwork: an original lighting circuit that was never earthed, a 1980s rewire that stopped at the ground floor, and a consumer unit added later that protects some of it and none of the rest.

Then there is the canal. Properties along the Trent & Mersey, and the converted wharf and mill buildings near Westbridge Park, bring their own issues – damp affecting insulation resistance, outbuildings fed by cable that was never rated for the run, and outside lighting on circuits that should never have been taken outdoors.

The post-war and later estates around Walton, Aston and Stonefield are a different job again. The wiring is usually sound but the board is often the original split-load unit with a single RCD, which trips the whole house every time a freezer plays up. On those we are generally fitting RCBOs rather than rewiring.

As an electrician in Stone we quote each of those honestly. If a targeted repair and a board change will do, that is what you will be quoted for.

Electrician in Stone: frequently asked questions

Do you charge extra to come out to Stone?

No. Stone is about seven miles from our base in Stafford and we treat it as part of our core patch, so there is no separate call-out premium for the area. What you are quoted is what the work itself costs.

Can you rewire a listed or period property in Stone town centre?

Yes, and we do it regularly. Work in a listed building or a conservation area needs a sympathetic approach – lifting floors rather than chasing walls where possible, and agreeing accessory positions and finishes before first fix. If listed building consent is needed for any of it, we will tell you at quotation stage rather than halfway through.

How much does an EICR cost for a rental in Stone?

It depends on the number of circuits and the size of the property, so a one-bedroom flat off the High Street and a four-bedroom house in Walton are not comparable. Tell us the property size and how many consumer units it has and we will quote before booking.

My whole house trips when one appliance faults. Can that be fixed?

Almost always, yes. That is the classic symptom of an older split-load board with a single RCD covering many circuits. Replacing it with a board using individual RCBOs means a faulty kettle takes out the kitchen sockets and nothing else. See our consumer unit upgrades page for what is involved.

Do you cover the villages around Stone?

Yes. Little Stoke, Yarnfield, Oulton, Moddershall and the settlements along the canal towards Barlaston are all within easy reach. If you are unsure, ring 07415 160779 and we will tell you straight away.
