While we’re still enjoying long evenings, BBQs, and warm weather, now’s actually the perfect time to get ahead of the game and check that your home’s electrics are safe, efficient, and future-proofed — before the darker, colder months roll in.

At JB Electrical, we’re helping homeowners and landlords across Hertfordshire make the most of summer by sorting electrical issues now — so you can relax knowing everything’s taken care of.

☀️ 1. Make the Most of Lighter Days

If you’re planning any work around the house — like new lighting, garden electrics, a summerhouse setup, or a kitchen upgrade — longer daylight hours make summer the easiest time for safe, efficient installations.

🔌 2. Get Ready Before the Autumn Rush

Come September and October, our diary fills up fast with consumer unit upgrades, safety inspections, and emergency callouts. Beat the rush by booking in now, whether it’s a simple job or a full Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR).

🏡 3. Summer Projects? Don’t Forget the Electrics

Adding a garden office, hot tub, or outdoor lighting? We’ve seen a rise in summer builds this year — but too often the electrics are rushed or overlooked. Get us in early for a clean, professional finish that meets all the right regs.

⚠️ 4. Catch Problems Before They Become Emergencies

Many electrical issues — like buzzing sockets, flickering lights, or tripping breakers — are signs of deeper faults. Summer is the perfect time for a check-up while things are still calm. Prevention always beats a winter emergency callout.

💡 5. Energy Efficiency = Long-Term Savings

Thinking about cutting energy costs before winter? We can help with LED upgrades, smarter lighting, and checking for unnecessary energy loss. Small upgrades now can lead to big savings later.
