Short answer

Stroud electricians work on weavers' cottages, Victorian terraces, converted mills and modern estates across the Five Valleys. Many homes sit on steep slopes, with damp rooms below ground level. National Grid Electricity Distribution runs the network here, and 105 reports a power cut. This page also covers Painswick and Stonehouse.

Electricians in Stroud by service

What wiring problems are common in Stroud homes?

Many Stroud homes have wiring that was added in stages over many decades. The town grew on the cloth trade, and mill workers lived in cottages on the valley sides.

Small rooms and thick walls in these cottages limit the cable routes. Many homes are cut into the hillside, so a back room or a cellar can be partly below ground. Damp in those rooms can damage sockets and make an RCD trip.

Several old mills in the valleys are now flats or workspaces. A converted mill can have a landlord supply for shared areas and a separate supply for each flat. Ask the electrician to state what an inspection covers.

Which Stroud conservation areas affect electrical work?

Stroud District Council lists 41 conservation areas, and several are in or next to the town. They include Stroud Town Centre, Stroud Top of the Town, Stroud Station, Stroud Industrial Heritage and Stratford Park.

Painswick has its own conservation area. Its houses are mainly local Cotswold stone, and many are listed. In a listed house, new cable routes through old plaster or timber can need listed building consent.

The council also has Article 4 directions in some conservation areas. These remove some permitted development rights, so check before you fix new items to a front wall.

How much demand is there for landlord EICRs in Stroud?

Demand is highest in the town centre. In the 2021 Census, 36.0 per cent of households in Stroud Central ward rented privately. That is far above the England figure of 20.5 per cent.

Across the 6 Stroud town wards, the share was 18.5 per cent (1,173 of 6,340 households). In Painswick and Upton ward it was 13.6 per cent.

A private landlord must give each existing tenant a copy of the EICR within 28 days of the test.

Who runs the power network in Stroud and Painswick?

National Grid Electricity Distribution (NGED) runs the network in Stroud, Painswick and the nearby valleys. Dial 105 to report a power cut or damaged equipment.

Questions

Who do I call in a power cut in Stroud?

Dial 105 from any phone. The call goes to National Grid Electricity Distribution, which runs the network in the Five Valleys.

My RCD trips when it rains. Could damp be the cause?

It can be. Water in an outside socket, a cellar or a wall box can let current leak to earth. An electrician can test the circuits and find the fault.

Does this page cover Painswick?

Yes, it does. Painswick is in Stroud District, so the same council deals with listed building questions. Check each listing to see if the firm serves Painswick.

Which council do I ask about a listed home in Stroud?

Stroud District Council. Its conservation team deals with listed building consent for the town and the villages around it.
