Electrical Contracting for New Build Projects
As a trusted new build electrical contractor, SFR Electrical Services covers the full scope of services required for first-fix, second-fix and final handover phases. Our tailored approach supports the needs of house builders, project managers and main contractors from pre-tender to post-completion.
Full new build electrical design and specification
We can work from existing architect plans or develop detailed electrical designs in-house. This includes lighting layouts, socket positioning, distribution board schematics, and future-proofing for smart technologies and energy efficiency.
First-fix containment, cable routing and sub-main distribution
During the early phase of construction, we install all cabling, containment, and distribution routes before plastering or internal fit-out begins. This ensures that your wiring is protected, concealed, and ready for second fix installation.
Lighting installation (internal & external)
We fit high-quality internal lighting systems as well as external lights for porches, pathways, gardens and garages. Our options include energy-efficient LEDs, emergency lighting, PIR sensors, dimmers, and feature lighting to meet modern buyer expectations.
Socket and switch layouts based on architectural plans
We install all standard and specialised electrical outlets in line with project specs. This includes double sockets, USB points, shaver sockets, cooker points, and external outlets, positioned for practicality and ease of use.
Consumer unit and circuit protection installation
Each property is equipped with a fully compliant consumer unit (fuse board), complete with RCD and RCBO protection, surge protection where required, and labelling for user clarity.
Kitchen, appliance and underfloor heating wiring
We provide tailored electrical layouts for kitchens, including integrated appliance connections, cooker circuits, island sockets and underfloor heating systems in living spaces or bathrooms.
Fire alarm systems and AOV (automatic opening vent) integration
For multi-unit or apartment builds, we install mains-powered fire detection systems in accordance with building regulations. We also support ventilation control systems for stairwells and shared access routes.
External power supplies for gardens, garages and car ports
We install outdoor sockets, car port lighting, garage electrics, and external supply points — enabling seamless integration of exterior lighting and garden power post-occupancy.
Final fix, testing, certification and client handover
At the close of the project, we return to install all visible fixtures and accessories. This includes pendant lights, downlights, faceplates, and testing of all circuits. We then issue full certification, user guides, and support you with homeowner handover packs.
Working With Developers, Contractors & Housing Associations
We work closely with national and regional house builders, architects and developers to support schemes ranging from one-off bespoke homes to multi-plot housing developments and apartment blocks.
Whether you need a new build electrician for a private house or a contract team for an estate development, we tailor our service to your needs. We understand that timelines are tight, changes happen, and communication is critical. That’s why we work closely with you to every build ensuring your programme is on track, your costs under control, and your quality consistent.
Our New Build Electrical Process
1. Pre-Installation Consultation
We review plans, specifications, and site requirements, offering design input and value-engineering where appropriate. We can also liaise directly with DNOs, M&E consultants, and architects.
2. First Fix Installation
Includes containment, cable routing, mains distribution, and positioning of back boxes and wiring for all future electrical fittings.
3. Second Fix Completion
We return to install accessories; sockets, switches, lighting, controls, kitchen connections and more – once plastering and finishes are completed.
4. Final Testing & Certification
We test all circuits to BS 7671 standards and issue Electrical Installation Certificates (EICs). We can also provide operating manuals, as-built drawings, and handover packs for developers or end users.
Built for Compliance, Designed for the Future
All electrical work is fully certified, NAPIT-approved, and compliant with:
- BS 7671 (18th Edition Wiring Regulations)
- Part P of the Building Regulations
- Local Authority Building Control requirements
- Construction site health and safety regulations
Whether you’re building to Passivhaus standards, future-proofing a smart home, or upgrading your specification to meet buyer demands, we can help integrate the latest electrical solutions into your build.
