When a Socket Needs Replacing

Replace a socket or switch if it is cracked, loose in the wall, scorched, warm to the touch or crackles when you use it. These are signs of damage or a poor connection. Carrying on using it can lead to overheating, so it's best dealt with quickly.

More Information

USB Sockets and Modern Faceplates

USB sockets let you charge phones and tablets without a plug. We can also fit new faceplates in brushed steel, black nickel or white, so your sockets and switches match. Swapping faceplates is a simple way to update a room without bigger work.

Adding Extra Sockets

Too few sockets often leads to extension leads and adapters, which can overload a circuit. We can add new sockets to existing circuits, or put in a new circuit if needed. We check that your wiring can take the extra load before we start.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get USB sockets fitted in Bangor?

Yes. We fit USB sockets in place of standard sockets across Bangor. Most fit straight into the existing back box, so there's no need for extra building work. Some include USB-C ports for faster charging. We can swap one socket or every socket in your home.

How long does it take to replace a socket in Bangor?

Replacing a single socket or switch usually takes around 15 to 30 minutes, including testing. If the back box is damaged or the cable is short, it can take a little longer. In Bangor, we can often combine several small jobs into one visit.

Is a warm plug socket in my Bangor home dangerous?

A socket that feels warm can be a warning sign. It may mean a loose connection, a damaged socket or too many appliances plugged into one outlet. Stop using it and get it checked by an electrician. We test and replace warm sockets across Bangor.
