NAPIT RegisteredDecades of ExperienceEmergency Call-Outs

Glemsford is a large village by Suffolk standards, set on high ground above the River Glem in the Stour Valley and surrounded by arable farmland. It sits on the B1065 between Long Melford and Clare, a little north of Sudbury, and is known for its long, sprawling old streets of timber-framed and weavers' cottages along Egremont Street, Chequers Lane, Brook Street and beyond. The village carries a strong industrial heritage in silk throwing, horsehair and coconut-fibre matting, with the Glemsford Silk Mills on Chequers Lane and landmarks like the early 14th-century Church of St Mary the Virgin still telling that story.

That heritage shapes the housing stock we work with. Many Glemsford homes are period and timber-framed properties where wiring has to be approached with care, alongside more recent houses, farm buildings and rural plots scattered around Tye Green, Lower Road and Fenstead End. HC Electrical, run by Harry Crane, handles sympathetic rewiring, consumer unit upgrades, additional circuits for outbuildings and garages, EV charger installation, lighting and electrical inspections across the village and the wider Stour Valley.

As a NAPIT-registered business, every job is carried out to current wiring regulations and notified under Part P where required, with proper certification on completion. Whether you own one of Glemsford's old cottages, a farm property out toward the open countryside, or a modern family home, the work is done thoroughly and explained plainly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Many of Glemsford's homes are period and timber-framed properties, and we are used to rewiring them sympathetically. We plan cable routes and fitting positions to keep disruption and damage to a minimum while bringing the installation up to current standards.
We do. We install home EV charge points for Glemsford properties, assessing your consumer unit and supply first to make sure everything is suitable, then fitting and certifying the charger to current regulations.
Yes. Outbuildings, garages, workshops and farm buildings are common around the village and surrounding farmland. We install dedicated circuits for power and lighting, run correctly to protect the cabling over those distances.
If your property still has an older fuse box, a modern consumer unit with RCD or RCBO protection is a worthwhile upgrade for safety. We can inspect what you have, advise whether replacement is sensible, and fit a new unit with certification.
