We're delighted to announce that Lighthouse is now a Which? Trusted Trader endorsed electrical contractor.

Achieving this accreditation involved much more than simply completing an application.

The assessment included thorough checks on our insurance, qualifications, customer reviews, policies and the way we operate our business. We also underwent DBS checks and a detailed review of our customer service, communication, complaints procedure, quotations and payment processes.

In short, Which? wanted to ensure we genuinely put our customers first and consistently deliver a professional, trustworthy service.

That's exactly why we chose to go through the process.

For over 30 years, we've built our reputation on honest advice, quality workmanship and treating every customer's home with respect. Becoming a Which? Trusted Trader provides independent recognition of the high standards we work hard to maintain every day.

A huge thank you to all of our customers for your continued support and for the fantastic reviews you've left over the years. Your recommendations and trust have helped us achieve this milestone.

Whether you need electrical fault finding, an EICR, a consumer unit upgrade, EV charger installation or any domestic electrical work, you can have confidence that you're choosing a company independently assessed for quality, professionalism and customer care.

Thank you for supporting Lighthouse Engineering. We look forward to continuing to serve homeowners and landlords across Dollis Hill, Cricklewood, Kilburn, Wembley, Hampstead and the surrounding areas.

Just like we prioritise regular MOTs for our cars 🚗 and annual servicing for our boilers 🔥, it's just as important to give your home's electrics the same attention with a regular **Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR)** ⚡🏠

Electrical installations naturally deteriorate over time. An EICR checks the condition of your wiring, sockets, switches and consumer unit, helping to identify hidden problems before they become dangerous. Faulty wiring, damaged accessories and overloaded circuits can all increase the risk of electric shock or fire.

For most owner-occupied homes, an EICR is recommended every **10 years** (or when buying or selling a property). Landlords are legally required to have one carried out at least every **5 years**.

Keeping your electrics inspected not only protects your family but may also help satisfy your home insurance requirements.

Don't wait until there's a problem—make electrical safety part of your home's regular maintenance.

Overloaded Plug Sockets – Fire Risk in Dollis Hill Homes

Overloaded plug sockets are a common cause of electrical fires in Dollis Hill homes, especially in older properties.

Using extension leads or multi-plug adaptors to run high-power appliances like kettles, heaters, air fryers and washing machines can cause sockets and wiring to overheat over time.

As a local Dollis Hill electrician, I often find heat-damaged wiring hidden behind sockets that look fine from the outside.

If your sockets feel warm, smell of burning, or your electrics keep tripping, it’s best to get it checked properly before it becomes dangerous.

Lighthouse provides reliable domestic electrical work across Dollis Hill and NW London, including socket upgrades, fault finding and electrical safety checks.
