Electrician marking up drawings for a job
Our story

A small team that turns up when it says it will.

Elevate Electrical started with one van and a spare room in Hanover. Fifteen years on there are six of us, a proper workshop off Lewes Road, and the same rule about tidying up.

Fifteen years of Brighton wiring, and most of it strange.

Danny set the company up in 2009 after ten years on commercial sites, mostly because he was tired of watching good work get rushed. The first job was a two bedroom flat in Kemptown with a fuse board older than the man who fitted it.

Since then we have rewired around four hundred homes across the city, from basement flats with no loft access to a Georgian townhouse in Lewes where every cable run had to be agreed with a conservation officer first.

We stay small on purpose. Six people means Danny still sees every job, and you get the same electrician from first fix to the certificate landing in your inbox. It also means we book up, so if you have a deadline, ring early.

How we work

01

Survey first, always

We come out, look at the board, lift a socket front and test what is there before quoting. No pricing over a photo.

02

A written plan

You get a quote that lists circuits, materials and how many days we need, plus which rooms lose power on which day.

03

Certificates on time

Test results, certificate and building control notification within a week of finishing. Chased by Sofia, not by you.
