Heanor is an Amber Valley town built on coal and hosiery, with St Lawrence's church and the market place at its centre and the Memorial Park close by. Its streets of Victorian and early twentieth-century terraces are home to many long-standing owners and a growing number of tenants. Old wiring, cramped fuse boards and too few sockets are the common complaints. We put those right with proper testing and certification, and fit car chargers and extra circuits on the newer estates at the edge of town.

Homes in Heanor

Heanor has been an industrial town since the 1800s, built on coal and hosiery. The Market Place took its present form in the 1890s, after the Heanor Hall estate was broken up. The town has no conservation area and only a handful of listed buildings, mostly red brick with stone dressings, such as 8 Market Place from the late 1600s. In older terraces we often find a shared loft void or party wall that neighbours' cables pass through, so we trace every circuit before cutting anything.

Heanor in numbers

From the 2021 Census, for the 3,388 households in the streets around Heanor.

  • 30%of homes are detached (England: 23%). Bigger houses usually mean more circuits and longer cable runs, so a rewire or a new board takes a little more planning. Rewires
  • 18%of households rent from a private landlord (England: 18%). Landlords in England must have the electrics inspected at least every five years and give tenants a copy of the report. Our EICRs start at £150 plus VAT. EICRs and fuse boxes
  • 36%of households have two or more cars or vans (England: 35%). Fitting a home charger you’ve bought yourself costs £450 plus VAT, and one well-placed charger can serve both sides of a drive. EV chargers

Asked in Heanor

Our Heanor terrace has an open loft shared with next door. Does that cause problems with the wiring?

It can. Cables from both houses may run through the same space, and it isn't always obvious whose is whose. We trace and label your circuits before we touch anything, and keep all new work on your side. If we find something of theirs that looks unsafe, we'll tell you.

We've moved into a newer house in Heanor and the RCD keeps tripping. What causes that?

Usually a fault on one circuit or one appliance, often something outdoors or damp. We start by unplugging and isolating circuits one at a time to find it, then test the wiring. It's rarely the RCD itself. Once we know the cause, we tell you the fix before doing anything.
