At AP Electrical (Yorkshire) Ltd., we specialise in providing comprehensive domestic electrical services tailored to meet the needs of homeowners across Yorkshire and beyond.
We believe that professional electrical work is the foundation of a safe, functional and modern home. Whether you are dealing with a flickering light or planning a high-end smart home integration, our approach remains the same: technical excellence, strict compliance and a commitment to quality.
Our expert team of electricians is committed to delivering high-quality installations, maintenance, repairs and rewires, ensuring your home remains safe and efficient. In an industry where standards are constantly evolving, we stay ahead of the curve to protect our clients and their properties.
Why Standards Matter to Us
When we say we provide "professional" services, we are referring to a very specific set of rules. We adhere to the strict guidelines of BS 7671 (the IET Wiring Regulations), NICEIC Technical Manuals and Building Control Part P.
As of 2026, the electrical industry has seen significant updates with Amendment 4 of the 18th Edition. These regulations aren't just red tape; they are designed to handle the increasing electrical load of modern life. We guarantee that all our work meets the highest standards of safety and quality, ensuring that your home’s infrastructure can handle everything from high-speed data networks to EV charging points without risk of failure.
Whether you require a simple repair or a complete rewire, our skilled electricians are equipped to handle projects of any size. We understand that for most homeowners, "peace of mind" means knowing that the hidden wiring behind their walls is not a fire hazard. By following Part P of the Building Regulations, we ensure that all significant electrical work is notifiable to local authorities, protecting the legal and resale value of your property.
A Specialist Partner for Landlords and HMOs
Yorkshire has a thriving rental market, but with that comes significant legal responsibility for property owners. We also carry out NICEIC certification services, including Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR), which are essential for rental properties and HMOs (Houses in Multiple Occupation).
The law is clear: landlords must ensure that electrical safety standards are met throughout the duration of a tenancy. Our team understands the importance of compliance and can assist landlords in ensuring that their properties meet all necessary regulations under electrical, fire detection, and emergency lighting standards.
An EICR is not a "tick-box" exercise for us. It is a rigorous physical inspection of the fixed wiring, including:
Checking for overloaded circuits.
Identifying potential electric shock risks and fire hazards.
Highlighting any lack of earthing or bonding.
Spotting defective electrical work that may have been carried out by previous, unqualified occupants.
For HMOs, the requirements are even stricter. We provide the specialised fire detection and emergency lighting installations required to keep these higher occupancy buildings safe and legal.
From Fault Finding to Full Rewires
Many of the homes we visit across Yorkshire were built long before the era of smart TVs, home offices and air-fryers. This often leads to common electrical faults that we are experts at diagnosing.
Expert Fault Finding
If your circuit breakers trip frequently or your sockets feel warm to the touch, you have a problem that needs a professional eye. Fault finding is a core part of our domestic service. We use advanced testing equipment to "see" into your walls, identifying loose connections, degraded cable insulation, or overloaded circuits before they turn into emergencies.
Consumer Unit Upgrades
One of the most impactful upgrades you can make is the replacement of a Distribution Board (often called a fuse box). Modern consumer units now include RCD (Residual Current Device) protection, and increasingly AFDDs (Arc Fault Detection Devices) and SPDs (Surge Protection Devices). These devices can detect a fault and cut the power in milliseconds, preventing shocks and protecting your expensive electronics from power surges.
Full and Partial Rewires
For older properties, a rewire is often the only way to ensure long-term safety. We manage this process with efficiency, replacing outdated rubber or lead sheathed cables with modern, high-capacity wiring. We work carefully to minimise disruption, ensuring your home is brought up to 21st century standards with as little mess as possible.
Delivering the ‘Grand Designs’ Vision
While we are happy to install an additional socket outlet or lighting point, we also excel in the high-end residential sector. From an additional socket outlet through to high-end ‘Grand Designs’ installations, we can deliver.
We have a proven track record of working alongside renowned interior designers and architects to refurbish some of Yorkshire’s most exclusive homes. These projects require more than just standard wiring; they require a "systems" approach to the home.
Smart Home Technology
Modern luxury homes rely on automation. We install integrated systems that allow you to control lighting, heating, and security from a single interface. Whether it's setting the "mood" for a dinner party with a single button or ensuring your home is energy-efficient while you are away, we provide the technical backbone for smart living.
Bespoke Lighting Design
Lighting is the most effective way to transform the atmosphere of a room. We work on complex lighting schemes that include architectural LEDs, feature pendants, and external garden lighting. Our goal is to ensure that the technical installation is invisible, leaving only the beautiful results.
Data and Audio-Visual Infrastructure
In 2026, a "Grand Design" isn't complete without robust data infrastructure. We install hard-wired data networks (Cat6/Cat7) and professional audio visual systems, ensuring your home has 100% connectivity and theatre quality sound in every room.
