Electrician in Redhill & Earlswood (RH1) - Domestic, Landlord & Commercial
Most of our Redhill work starts with an EICR. The town’s Victorian and Edwardian terraces around the station and town centre, plus a large number of flat conversions, throw up the same issues again and again: shared fuse boards, wiring altered over decades of conversions, and consumer units that were never designed for how the property is used now.
Because we see the same patterns across Redhill, we know what to check first. That usually means a shorter inspection and a clearer explanation of what actually needs doing versus what can wait.
MS Electrical Solutions is a NAPIT-accredited electrician working for homeowners, landlords and businesses across Redhill and the RH1 postcode, from the town centre and Holmethorpe to Earlswood, Meadvale, Whitebushes, Merstham, South Merstham, Nutfield and Salfords. We’re based in Horley, around 15 minutes away, and when you call, you speak to Mark directly.

What Redhill Customers Say
"Just had Mark from MSE do 2 ECIR inspections on my 2 flats in Redhill. He was ultra professional and efficient…"

Recent Redhill Jobs
A Redhill landlord with three tenancies on one board. Three separate flats were all running off a single shared consumer unit. That’s a common legacy of Redhill conversions, and it means one fault, or one piece of work, can cut power to every tenant at once.
A partial rewire after a warm socket. A Redhill homeowner noticed a socket was warm to the touch. Investigating it uncovered a section of tired, overloaded wiring, and we replaced the affected circuits without a full rewire.
Fault finding in a converted terrace. Conversions often hide junction boxes and spliced cables under floors and behind plasterboard. Finding the actual fault, rather than replacing things and hoping, is where most of the time goes.
Lighting a dark side passage. We installed dusk-to-dawn lighting along a narrow, unlit side passage for a customer whose back gate had been tried twice in a month. It was a simple fix that removed the darkness the intruder was relying on.
Landlord EICRs in Earlswood. Regular inspections across Earlswood’s rental stock.
Domestic Electrician in Redhill
Redhill’s homes range from Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the town centre, through inter-war and post-war estates in areas like Merstham and Earlswood, to modern flats and new builds. Many have electrical installations that have never been fully brought up to date for how people live now.
We’re most often called out to Redhill homes for:
Fuse boards without modern RCD or RCBO protection
Wiring extended and modified multiple times over the decades
Circuits struggling with modern appliances, EV chargers and heat pumps
Electrical concerns raised during a sale or renovation
Intermittent faults that have been hard to trace
On every job we explain what we’ve found, give you clear options, and do the work to current safety standards. Call 07508 224603 for a free quote.
EICRs in Redhill and Earlswood
An Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) is a formal safety check of a property’s electrics. Landlords in England must have one for every rented property, renewed at least every five years. They’re also strongly recommended when buying a home, before a renovation, or when the occupant changes.
We carry out EICRs across Redhill, Earlswood, South Merstham, Salfords and the wider RH1 area. Every inspection is done by a NAPIT-accredited inspector, with a full written report and a same-day certificate on most jobs. If remedial work is needed, we explain the findings clearly and can carry out the work and re-certify.
From October 2026, stricter qualification rules apply to anyone carrying out EICRs, and Mark already meets them.
Who needs an EICR in Redhill?
Landlords: legally required before a new tenancy and at least every five years
Home buyers: recommended before exchange, to spot hidden problems
Homeowners: if the property is over 25 years old and hasn’t been inspected recently
Businesses: recommended at least every five years, and on a change of occupancy
Property managers: keeping a whole portfolio compliant
Call 07508 224603 to book an EICR in Redhill or Earlswood.
Consumer Unit Upgrades in Redhill
Old fuse boards without RCD protection are one of the most common safety risks we find in Redhill properties. An upgrade replaces the old board with a modern metal-clad unit with full RCD and surge protection. That improves safety, reduces nuisance tripping and brings the installation in line with current regulations.
We give a fixed quote before starting, issue full certification when the job’s done, and notify building control as required. Call 07508 224603 for a quote.
Landlords, Letting Agents & Social Housing in Redhill
Redhill has a busy rental market, especially around the town centre and along the commuter routes to London and Gatwick. Private landlords in England must hold a valid EICR for every rental property, renew it at least every five years, and give a copy to tenants and to the local authority if asked.
There’s also a large amount of social housing in Redhill. From 30 November 2026, Phase 2 of Awaab’s Law means social landlords must make dangerous electrical faults safe within 24 hours of a tenant reporting them. [link “Awaab’s Law” to the Awaab’s Law post]
