Electrician in Woodstock
Woodstock is twenty minutes from Witney, and much of the work there is in older stone property where how the cable is run matters as much as the circuit itself.
Local wiring, local quirks
A good share of the town is listed or within the conservation area, with thick stone walls, lath and plaster, and ceilings nobody wants drilled. That rules out a lot of standard practice: cable gets routed through voids and behind skirtings, accessories get chosen to suit the building, and anything that would need consent gets flagged before work starts rather than after.
Alongside that there is ordinary domestic work in the newer parts of the town and out towards Bladon and Wootton — fuse boards, EV chargers and garden lighting.

What I get called out for
Fault finding & repairs
Most call-outs start here: something has stopped working, or the fuse board keeps throwing the whole house into darkness and nobody knows why.
Fuse board upgrades
If one fault takes out the whole house, or the board still has rewirable fuses, it is doing a job that modern boards do far better.
EICRs & safety checks
An Electrical Installation Condition Report tells you the actual state of the wiring, with anything dangerous coded so you know what must be done and what can wait.
EV charger installation
A home charger is mostly an electrical job rather than a car one: what matters is the supply into the house, the main fuse, and how the cable gets to where you park.
Sockets & lighting
The small jobs that make a house easier to live in, and the ones most people put off for years because of the extension lead that has become furniture.
Rewires
A rewire is the job nobody wants and plenty of older properties round here eventually need — usually the ones still running rubber or fabric-insulated cable.
