Why Your Home’s Electrical System Deserves Expert Attention
Many homeowners only think about their electrics when something goes wrong—a flickering light, a tripped circuit, or an outdated fuse board struggling to cope with modern demands. However, regular professional input can prevent small issues from becoming costly or dangerous problems.
Electrical faults remain one of the leading causes of house fires in the UK. According to the latest Electrical Safety First statistics, faulty wiring and appliances contribute to thousands of incidents every year. A qualified electrician doesn’t just fix problems; they spot potential hazards before they escalate, giving you complete peace of mind.
Beyond safety, professional services help you save money in the long run. Energy-efficient lighting, correctly installed appliances, and optimised circuits can significantly reduce your monthly bills. With energy prices still high across Lincolnshire and the rest of the UK, every watt counts.
Our Comprehensive Domestic Electrical Services
At Matson Electrical, we offer a full spectrum of domestic solutions tailored to Lincolnshire homes—whether you live in a period cottage in the Wolds, a modern estate in Lincoln, or a coastal property near Skegness.
Full & Partial Rewires
Older properties often have wiring that simply wasn’t designed for today’s electrical loads. If your home was built before the 1980s, it may still rely on outdated systems that struggle with multiple devices, electric showers, or home offices. A full or partial rewire brings everything up to current Part P regulations, improves safety, and future-proofs your property.
Fuse Board (Consumer Unit) Upgrades
Modern consumer units with RCD protection are essential for preventing shocks and fires. If you still have an old fuse box with rewirable fuses, upgrading is one of the most effective safety improvements you can make. We install high-quality units from trusted brands, complete with surge protection to safeguard your expensive electronics.
Additional Sockets & USB Points
Working from home? Charging multiple devices? We install extra sockets exactly where you need them—bedside tables, kitchen islands, home offices, or garden rooms. Built-in USB and USB-C ports mean fewer bulky adapters and a cleaner, tidier finish.
LED Lighting Design & Installation
Good lighting transforms a house into a home. We specialise in energy-saving LED installations, from recessed downlights and feature pendants to outdoor security lighting. Smart lighting control via apps or voice assistants is increasingly popular with our Lincolnshire customers, offering convenience and additional energy savings.
Kitchen & Bathroom Electrics
These are high-demand areas where safety is paramount. We install extractor fans, under-cabinet lighting, electric showers, and heated towel rails—all fully compliant with IP-rated zones to protect against water ingress.
Outdoor & Garden Power
Lincolnshire gardens are perfect for summer evenings. We install weatherproof sockets, decking lights, pond pumps, and even dedicated supplies for hot tubs or summerhouses, so you can enjoy your outdoor space long after sunset.
Smart Home Integration
From Wi-Fi boosters to video doorbells and automated heating controls, we help you create a connected home that’s both convenient and secure. All installations are carried out with minimal disruption and maximum compatibility.
The Matson Electrical Difference
As a family-run business based right here in Lincolnshire, we pride ourselves on clear communication, transparent pricing, and workmanship you can trust. Every electrician on our team is fully qualified, Part P registered, and insured. We’re also proud members of NICEIC, meaning our work is regularly assessed to the highest industry standards.
We understand that inviting tradespeople into your home can feel intrusive, which is why we always arrive on time, respect your property, and leave everything clean and tidy. No jargon, no pressure—just honest advice and quality results.
Signs You Might Need Professional Help
Still unsure whether it’s time to call in the experts? Here are a few tell-tale signs:
- Frequent circuit breaker trips
- Flickering or dimming lights when appliances turn on
- Burning smells or warm sockets
- Old-style round-pin sockets or fabric-covered cable
- Extension leads used permanently in multiple rooms
If any of these sound familiar, don’t wait for a small issue to become a big problem.
Looking Ahead: Preparing Your Home for Net Zero
With the UK pushing towards net zero by 2050, many Lincolnshire homeowners are already thinking about electric vehicle charging and renewable technologies. A robust domestic electrical system is the foundation for these upgrades. Whether you’re planning solar panels, battery storage, or an EV charger in the near future, getting your house electrics checked now makes the transition smoother and more cost-effective.
