Very Impressed with the professional service. Explained clearly the process and any problems encountered.
You’ve upgraded your phone, your telly, maybe even your car but when was the last time you thought about the electrics in your home?
At A.M Electrics Devon Ltd, we speak to families across Newton Abbot, Torquay, Paignton, Teignmouth and Kingsteignton who are surprised to find their electrics haven’t been touched in 20+ years and that’s usually when things start going wrong.
Here are 5 tell-tale signs your home could be crying out for an electrical update 👇
1. Extension Leads Galore? You’ve Outgrown Your Sockets
If you’ve got extension leads hiding behind every piece of furniture, your home probably doesn’t have enough sockets for modern life. From kitchen gadgets to gaming setups and smart speakers, our homes are doing more than ever and your wiring needs to keep up. We install sleek, modern sockets (including USB ones) all over South Devon.
2. That Old Fuse Board’s Seen Better Days
Still got an old-style fuse board with rewireable fuses? Or no RCDs? That’s a red flag. Modern consumer units offer better protection, faster fault detection, and a much neater finish. We replace dozens every year across Newton Abbot and Torquay, and it’s
one of the most important upgrades you can make for your family’s safety.
3. Flickering Lights That Make You Feel Like You’re in a Horror Film?
Lights that flicker, dim, or make a buzzing sound could mean there’s a wiring fault or that your circuits are overloaded. Either way, it’s not something to ignore. We’ve sorted this for plenty of customers in Paignton and Teignmouth - often with just a quick visit.
4. Warm Sockets or Dodgy Switches
If a switch or socket feels hot, crackles, or looks a bit brown around the edges, it’s time to get it checked. These are signs of wear, damage or loose connections and left alone, they can turn into something dangerous.
5. Planning a New Kitchen, Office or Hot Tub?
Big upgrades mean more electrical demand — so your system needs to be ready. We work alongside builders, kitchen fitters and landscapers across South Devon to make sure everything’s safe, future-proofed and finished to a high standard.
