What we do

Domestic and landlord electrical work across Stockport and South Manchester. Every job is certified, signed off and quoted up front, so you know the price before we lift a screwdriver.

Rewires & partial rewires

Full house rewires and partial rewires done room by room, with minimal mess and a clear plan. Tested, certified and signed off to the current wiring regs.

Fuse board upgrades

Old fuse boxes swapped for a modern consumer unit with RCD protection and surge protection. From £550, usually fitted and tested in a single visit.

EICR safety certificates

Electrical Installation Condition Reports for homeowners and landlords, including the landlord certificate the law now requires. From £150 for a standard home.

EV charger installation

OZEV-approved home chargers fitted neatly and certified, with the load check done properly. We help you claim any grant you are eligible for. From £799.

Smart home & lighting

Downlights, dimmers, outdoor lighting and smart switches set up and explained. Better light, lower bills and controls that actually make sense.

Fault-finding & repairs

Tripping breakers, dead sockets and flickering lights traced to the real cause and fixed first time, not patched. No guesswork on your bill.

How it works

No pressure, no surprises. Three simple steps from your first call to a job done and signed off.

  1. You call

    Tell us what is going on. We will talk it through, book a slot that suits you, and give you a clear idea of cost before anyone visits.

  2. We quote

    We come out, look properly at your fuse board and wiring, and give you a fixed written price. No call-out charge and no obligation to go ahead.

  3. We fix it

    Our electrician does the work on the agreed day, tidies up after, tests everything and hands you the certificate. You pay only the price we quoted.

What our customers say

Had our whole house rewired over a week. The lads turned up on time every day, kept the dust down and made good after. Spotless work and the price never moved. Could not recommend them more.
ClaireBramhall
Old fuse box was tripping constantly. Redfern came out, explained exactly what was wrong, fitted a new consumer unit and tested the lot. No jargon, no upsell, just a proper job.
MarkCheadle
Got three quotes for an EV charger. Redfern were clear about the grant, did the load check properly and fitted it dead neat by the front door. Certificate through the same day.
PriyaHazel Grove
Half the sockets in the kitchen died on a Sunday night. Phoned expecting an answerphone and got a real person. They talked me through the fuse board and were round first thing Monday. Sorted in an hour.
TomMarple
We are landlords and use Redfern for all our EICRs now. Always on time, certificates emailed straight over, and they flag anything that needs doing without trying to scare us into work we do not need.
JanetStockport
Fitted downlights through the lounge and kitchen and a couple of smart switches. Tidy, friendly and clearly know their stuff. The light in here is a different world now.

Common questions

A few things people ask before they book. If yours is not here, just call us.

Are you NICEIC approved?

Yes. Redfern is a NICEIC Approved Contractor (enrolment 6042178) and Part P registered, so all of our work is certified and notified to building control where it needs to be. We are happy to show our ID and registration on the doorstep.

What is an EICR and do I need one?

An EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) is a full safety check of your fixed wiring. Homeowners are advised to have one every ten years, and since 2020 it is a legal requirement for landlords every five years. We carry them out, give you a clear pass or fail, and quote separately for any remedial work.

How much disruption does a rewire cause?

Less than most people fear. We plan the job room by room, lift carpets and floorboards carefully, chase walls neatly and sheet up as we go. A typical three-bed takes most of a week, and we make good after so you are not left with a building site.

Can you help with the EV charger grant?

Yes. We are OZEV-approved installers, so where you are eligible (for example flat owners and renters under the current scheme) we sort the grant paperwork for you and take it off the price. We will tell you honestly up front whether you qualify.

Do you charge a call-out fee?

No. We do not charge to come out and quote, and there is no obligation to go ahead. You get a fixed written price and you decide from there. For booked work the price we quote is the price you pay.

How fast can you get to an emergency?

We run a 24/7 emergency line and a real person answers it, day or night. For a total loss of power, burning smells or exposed live wiring across our core area we aim to be with you within a couple of hours.

The family behind Redfern

A proper local firm, run by people who answer the phone

Redfern started in 2011 when Gary Redfern packed in agency work and put his own name on the van. Over a decade on, it is still family-run. Gary still leads on the bigger rewires, his son Jack heads up EV chargers and smart home work, and every electrician who pulls up in a Redfern van is on our own books, not a sub-contractor.

We built this firm on a simple idea: turn up when you say you will, charge what you quoted, and treat someone's home the way you would treat your own. That is why most of our work comes from word of mouth across Stockport, Bramhall and the Cheshire villages.

We are a NICEIC Approved Contractor, Part P registered and fully insured, but the thing customers tell us they value most is just that we pick up the phone, explain things plainly and do what we said we would.
