Hopwas is a picturesque village located just west of Tamworth in Staffordshire, nestled between the River Tame and the Coventry Canal. Known for its rich heritage and scenic countryside, Hopwas is a peaceful and sought-after location that offers the best of rural living with close access to modern amenities.
The village is home to Hopwas Woods, a popular walking and cycling destination offering ancient woodland and wildlife, as well as two well-known canalside pubs, the Tame Otter and the Red Lion. Hopwas is also notable for its military history, being adjacent to the former Whittington Barracks and Hopwas Hays Wood, once used for military training.

And with that comes the need for safe, reliable, and expertly delivered electrical services.

The consumer unit in an annexe needed to be replaced.
It lacked RCD protection and the SWA connection to a garden room had failed after 30 years.
After testing the circuits to confirm that the circuits were still OK to continue to be used the old board was removed and replaced with a small split RCD protected board. One side for the garden room feeding a swimming pool filter and air source pump, the other for lighting and socket circuits.
We were told that the lighting for the garden hadn't worked for a long time and the pump for a similar time. Can we take a look.
This is what we found shortly after arriving - granted it was under a car port which was watertight but still...
An indoor fused control unit (FCU) with SWA - the thick black cable - which had been terminated but was hanging from the terminations in the FCU. Various other electrical connections had been attempted unsuccessfully.
Everything was taken out and made safe to be re-installed properly at a later date.
Upgrade to a make do and mend installation including many extensions and hardwired extension leads, and an extension to an adjacent toilet block.
The consumer unit required new connections to the MCBs as wire had been used in place of it.
The toilet block having fused control units to lights and the installed water heater.
A dull and uninspiring large lounge was transformed with contemporary downlighting solution.
We split the room into into 2 zones and dimmers were added to provide more control in each.
Reading was the focus in the area away from the window and relaxing with a little TV at the other.
Each was easily able to be catered for.
Many other electricians in the area are simply not interested in small electrical works. They want the choice jobs and will drop you like a hot potato when a bigger project comes along.
Others advertise for work as electricians despite having no qualifications. They thrive on the basis that you don't understand what they do and, as a result, overcharge for shoddy, often dangerous, work.
This of course is not limited to Tamworth, the same happens in other areas such as Sutton Coldfield, Lichfield and elsewhere in the surrounding area.
I set up Tamworth Electricians to fill a gap in the domestic sector. I want to provide you with a quality service that provides you with exactly what you need from an electrician.
