Electrician in Hook
JD Electricals serves Hook homeowners and landlords with EICRs, electrical fault finding, consumer unit replacements and EV charger installations.
“Most of my work is domestic: consumer units, full and partial rewires, lighting and EICRs on houses around Basingstoke. I test and certify everything I fit, and anything else I find while I am there gets priced separately rather than added quietly to the bill. The electrician who quotes your job is the one who does it.”

Electrician in Hook
- We cover Hook for homes on both sides of the A30, from the village centre out to the newer closes.
- Boards there are modern already, so most calls are additions rather than replacements.
- Parking sits beside the house on Bartley Way, which keeps the cable run short and simple.
- Mixed wiring and refitted kitchens mean testing comes before any price is put on paper.
Hook housing and what it changes about the job
- The A30 corridor put newer estates next to original village property, and the age of a house decides the method.
- Modern consumer units and plenty of sockets mean we test the board, then add to it.
- A clear path from meter to parking space makes a home charge point one of the tidier jobs we do.
- Older cottages here often carry three ages of wiring behind one wall.
Other electrical work in Hook
Other jobs here run from board changes and fault finding through to alarm heads, oven points and shower circuits.
What happens on the day
Every booked Hook job follows the same three stages, whatever the street.
- 01
First half hour
We park where the drive or the road allows, come in, and find the board, the meter and the incoming supply. On a newer house that is a garage or a hall cupboard and takes a minute. On an older place near the village centre it can take longer, because a board has sometimes been boxed in behind a cupboard. We confirm the job we agreed and check nothing has changed since we quoted it.
- 02
Fitting and connecting
Cable goes in first, along the route we planned, then the fittings, then the connections at the board. On a charge point that means the outside unit, the run back through the wall and a dedicated way in the consumer unit. On a fault it means testing until the cause shows itself, then repairing it if the parts are on the van. Extra work is priced and agreed before it happens.
- 03
Testing and handover
We test the new or repaired circuit, check earthing and bonding, and record the readings. Then we show you the unit working, run through the switch positions and hand over the certificate. Packaging and offcuts go in the van. If a follow up job came out of what we found, you get that price in writing rather than a vague warning.
Why people in Hook call us
We do the lot, the price is agreed in writing first, and the certificate is handed over before we leave the drive.

Questions from Hook customers
The things people ask before booking a date.
How long does an EV charger take to fit?+
Most of the newer houses in Hook are a single day. The unit goes on the wall nearest the parking space, the cable runs back to the consumer unit on its own way, and the whole circuit is tested before it charges anything. A 7.4kW home charge point starts from £750. If the board has no spare way, we will tell you that when we quote, not on the day.
My board is only ten years old, do you still need to look at it?+
Yes, briefly. Adding a heavy circuit to a board that is full, badly loaded or missing residual current protection turns a good installation into a poor one. The check takes minutes and it either confirms the board is fine or saves you fitting a charger onto something that cannot carry it.
Do you work on flats above the shops near Station Road?+
We do. The extra care there is working out which meter and which circuits belong to the flat rather than the unit below, because supplies in those buildings have often been altered. We map that first, then test, then quote the work with the shared parts made clear.
Can you sort a socket that has stopped working?+
That is a fault finding visit, charged from £75 per hour. Usually it is a loose connection on the ring, a damaged spur or a failed accessory, and we trace it rather than swapping parts on a hunch. If it is a simple repair and the part is on the van it gets fixed on the same visit.
What does a kitchen actually need when it is being refitted?+
Dedicated circuits for the oven or hob, enough sockets on the worktop for what you plug in daily, lighting that suits the layout, and an extractor on a switched supply. A kitchen rewire starts from £1,600 and a cooker or oven connection on its own starts from £120. We want the plan before the units arrive, because cable is cheap to run into an empty room.
Are the prices fixed?+
They are starting prices. A bigger house, a long cable run or an awkward board pushes a job above the starting figure, and we put the real number on a written quote before we book you in. What we will not do is quote low, start work and then hand you a bigger bill at the end.
Do you do the work outside normal hours?+
Booked work sits inside our opening hours, because that is when we can see into lofts, cupboards and rear yards properly. Genuine emergencies are different and attendance starts from £90 per hour. If your problem can safely wait until morning, we will say so instead of charging you for the night.
