What we do in Newmarket
EICRs & landlord certificates — Newmarket's rental market means plenty of landlords need their 5-yearly certificates; we handle single properties and portfolios.Rewires — The town's older terraces and cottages are classic candidates for board upgrades and rewiring checks.We also cover Exning, Kentford, Red Lodge, Burwell and the surrounding area.
Newmarket's housing — and what it means for your electrics
Newmarket's housing is unlike anywhere else in Suffolk. The town's conservation-area core is a weave of late-Georgian and Victorian terraces threaded between working racing yards — streets like Exeter Road, Old Station Road and Fordham Road grew up in the racing boom of the late nineteenth century, and plenty of homes there are running wiring far younger owners would wince at. At the other end of town, the Hatchfield Farm development off Fordham Road is bringing 400 brand-new homes through to around 2029.
We work across both worlds: careful EICRs, consumer unit upgrades and sympathetic rewiring in the period stock, and EV chargers, extra circuits and snagging fixes in the new-builds — which are rarely handed over with as many sockets, outdoor power points or charging provision as real life needs.
More than one in five households across the West Suffolk district is privately rented (22.4% at the last census — the highest in our patch), and every one of those tenancies legally needs a satisfactory EICR at least every five years. We handle single lets and portfolios, schedule around tenants, and send reminders before certificates lapse.
With sixty-plus studs and a third of local jobs tied to racing, Newmarket has a kind of premises most towns don't — yards, stables and outbuildings that need robust, outdoor-rated power, security and yard lighting, and installations that stand up to the working life of a yard. It's specialised work, and it's on our doorstep.

How we work in Newmarket
Newmarket is one of our closest towns — straight down the A14 or the Bury Road — so planned work slots in easily and emergencies get a fast, honest ETA. Every job follows the same routine as everywhere on our patch: a free itemised quote up front (the price quoted is the price paid), tidy certified work to 18th Edition standards, and the certificate in your hand before we leave. The surrounding villages are part of the round too — Exning, Kentford, Red Lodge and Burwell see us regularly, and being just off the A14/A11 corridor means even the outlying studs and farms are minutes away, not a surcharge.
If you're not sure what your Newmarket home needs — old terrace, new Hatchfield Farm build, or something between — start with a phone call and a description. We'll tell you what we'd genuinely do, what it's likely to involve, and what can wait.
