Huntington, York · YO31 / YO32
Electrician in Huntington
I'm Frankie — an NICEIC approved electrician based in York, covering Huntington and New Earswick. Huntington is a large suburb with a wide range of housing ages: post-war semis, 1970s estates, modern developments near Monks Cross, and older properties along North Moor Road and Huntington Road. I'll give you a straight assessment and an honest estimate before any work starts.
What I work on in Huntington
Post-war and 1950s–70s housing stock
The older parts of Huntington — along North Moor Road, New Lane, and the estate streets behind Huntington Road — have a mix of post-war and 1960s-70s housing. Consumer units from this era are almost always due an upgrade. A modern board with individual RCBOs gives each circuit its own protection rather than a whole-floor trip when something fails. If your fuse board still has rewireable fuses or a single RCD, it's worth getting looked at.
Modern developments near Monks Cross
The newer developments around the Monks Cross retail area, Stirling Road, and Jockey Lane are generally wired to current standards. The common requests here are EV charger installations, additional socket circuits for home offices, garden office power supplies, and security lighting. All of this is standard work — one call, one person, properly certified.

Common questions from Huntington homeowners

I'm a landlord in Huntington — what do I need for my rental property?
A valid EICR renewed every 5 years or at change of tenancy, with a copy given to tenants within 28 days. I carry out landlord EICRs across Huntington, handle any C1/C2 remedial work, and issue the certificate. I'm a YRLA Recognised Service Provider.
My 1970s semi in Huntington has the original fuse board — do I need to upgrade it?
Not compulsory, but strongly advisable. A 1970s fuse board doesn't give the circuit-by-circuit protection that a modern consumer unit with RCBOs provides. It's also likely to flag as a C3 (improvement recommended) on any EICR. An upgrade from £450+VAT is often the most worthwhile single electrical investment in a house this age.
How much does an EICR cost in Huntington?
From £180+VAT for up to 6 circuits, then £15 per additional circuit. Confirmed before work starts. See my EICR guide.
Can you install an EV charger in Huntington?
Yes. Full installation including DNO application and building control notification. For most modern homes near Monks Cross it’s a straightforward dedicated circuit. See my EV charger guide.
