A mix of older city-centre property needing rewires and modern estates needing upgrades and charge points. ### Lichfield is a short run for us We work out of Springhill Road in Burntwood, which puts Lichfield a few miles down the A5190. It is one of the areas we are in most weeks, so a Lichfield job does not carry half a day of travelling in its price and we can usually offer earlier dates than firms coming from further out. Being close also means we can come and look before quoting, which matters more in Lichfield than in most places. In a city with Georgian and Victorian property, listed buildings and a conservation area at its centre, no two jobs behave the same way, and a price given over the phone from a description is a guess. ### Property types we work on in Lichfield The city centre and streets around the Cathedral Close hold period property, solid walls, lath and plaster, suspended timber floors, and often decades of layered electrical work in buildings where you cannot simply chase a wall wherever you like. Rewiring here is as much about planning cable routes and making good as it is about the electrics, and we would rather talk that through with you before a single floorboard comes up. Around that sit the 1930s–1970s suburbs of Boley Park, Streethay, Curborough and Leomansley, mostly needing consumer unit upgrades, partial rewires and extra circuits, and then the newer developments off the A38, where the calls are for EV chargers, garden room supplies, outside power and air conditioning in rooms with big south-facing glazing. ### What Lichfield customers call us about Full and partial rewires in older property, fuse board upgrades, EICRs for house sales and rentals, EV charger installations on driveways, and extra sockets and lighting. On the groundworks side: foundations for extensions and garden rooms, drainage to new kitchens and bathrooms, driveway sub-bases and soakaways. Where a project needs the ground dug and the electrics run, we can do both, which removes a handover. We work out from 88B Springhill Road, Burntwood, Staffordshire, WS7 4UJ. Whatever the trade, the same things apply: the company is NAPIT registered and F-Gas certified, Sam holds City & Guilds 2391 and the 18th Edition, every other operative holds a CSCS or ECS card, and the work carries a 1-year guarantee on all work.

Local conditions ## What comes up in Lichfield Property age, ground conditions and drainage here shape what we find when we open a board or dig a trench. ### Period property and hidden wiring history In Lichfield's older housing it is common to find three generations of wiring in one building: original runs long since disconnected, 1960s rewiring in rubber or early PVC, and recent additions spurred off whatever was nearest. An EICR here often uncovers more than the owner expected, which is precisely why it is worth doing before you buy, let, or start knocking walls about. ### Conservation area and listed constraints Surface-mounted trunking and casually chased walls are not an option in much of central Lichfield. Cable routes have to follow floor voids, existing chases and joinery, which takes longer and needs agreeing up front. We would rather tell you that at the quoting stage than surprise you halfway through. ### Driveways, frontages and charge points Plenty of Lichfield houses park at the front with the meter at the back, or have no off-street parking at all. Where a charge point is viable we will site it for the cable run and the load, and where it is not we will say so rather than install something that will not work for you. ### Ground and drainage on older plots Older Lichfield gardens frequently hide brick-built drains, shared runs and previous outbuilding foundations. We dig trial holes and confirm what is there before quoting foundation depths or new connections, because a surprise found after the concrete is ordered costs everybody more. Our process ## How a job in Lichfield runs The same sequence every time, so you know what happens next and when. - 01 ### You call or send details Phone Sam on 07307 210474 or send the job through the form. Tell us the address, what the problem or plan is, and when you need it done. - 02 ### We look at the job For anything beyond a small repair we come and look. Guessing at a price from a description helps nobody, and a site visit catches the things a photo hides. - 03 ### You get a price for your job We work on day rates that vary with the operatives and plant a job needs, so you get a price for your actual job rather than a published figure that never fits. - 04 ### Booked in and carried out We agree a start date, turn up when we said, and keep you told if anything on site changes what we found. - 05 ### Certified, tidied, guaranteed Electrical work is tested and certificated, the site is cleared, and the work carries a 1-year guarantee. If something isn't right, you call us and we come back. What customers say ## Reviews from the electrical side of the business Every review below was left for electrical work carried out as Stretton Electrical. We use them as proof of how we work, not as evidence of groundworks, aircon or building jobs. “Done a full rewire and remodelling of my humble home and co-ordinated with other trades marvellously to pull it together.”Donald SmithView on Google“I've used Stretton Electrical twice now and have been really pleased with the work.

Do you cover Lichfield?Yes: Lichfield is one of our most regular working areas, a few miles from our base in Burntwood. How quickly can you reach Lichfield?It is a short drive from Springhill Road, so we can normally get out to look at a job quickly, and smaller electrical work can often be fitted in the same week depending on what is already booked. What does a rewire cost in Lichfield?It depends heavily on the property, a Victorian terrace with solid walls and suspended floors is a different job from a 1970s semi. We price on day rates that vary with the operatives needed, so we look at the house and give you a price for that house. Can you work on a listed or conservation-area property?Yes, and we will talk through cable routes and making good before starting. Where consent is needed for the works you are planning, that is your responsibility to obtain, but we will tell you what we can and cannot do without cutting into protected fabric. Do you do emergency call-outs in Lichfield?Our hours are 8am–6pm Monday to Friday with occasional weekend work. We are not a 24-hour service. If something is dangerous, isolate it at the board and call an emergency electrician, or 105 if the supply itself has failed. Do you provide EICRs for Lichfield landlords and house sales?Yes. You get a clear report, what is satisfactory, what is coded and why, and what remedial work would involve. Can you install an EV charger at a Lichfield property?Yes. We check the incoming supply and earthing arrangement, agree where the unit goes for how you actually park, and install on a dedicated circuit. Do you take on groundworks in Lichfield as well as electrics?Yes, foundations, drainage, slabs, muck-away and driveway sub-bases. Groundworks and electrical work are both primary trades for us. Is the work guaranteed?Every job carries a 1-year guarantee. If something we did is not right, call and we come back. Why are your older reviews under a different name?The electrical side of the business traded as Stretton Electrical before Stret Limited.
