Everyday Electrical Work Across Lancing
From fitting a new light fixture to adding sockets in a home office, HP Building Services Sussex handle a wide range of electrical tasks across Lancing and the surrounding area. We take care of the everyday electrical jobs that keep your home functional and safe.
A note on regulations: certain electrical work in England and Wales falls under Part P of the Building Regulations, which requires notification to your local authority or certification by a registered competent person. This includes work in bathrooms, new circuits, and consumer unit (fuse board) replacements. We will always tell you when a job is notifiable and make sure it is handled correctly — your safety is not something we cut corners on.

Our Electrical Services
Socket and Switch Installation
If you are running extension leads across the room because there are not enough sockets, it is time to add more. We install additional double sockets, USB charging sockets, and switch plates throughout the home. This is a common request in older Lancing properties where the original wiring plan did not account for modern living with laptops, phone chargers, and kitchen appliances all needing power at once.
Light Fitting and Replacement
We fit all types of light fixtures including ceiling pendants, spotlights, recessed downlights, wall lights, and exterior security lights. If you have bought a new light and need it hanging, or want to replace old fluorescent strip lighting with modern LED alternatives, we handle the full job including making good around any new ceiling openings.
Extractor Fans
Bathroom and kitchen extractor fans are essential for managing condensation and preventing mould, particularly in coastal areas like Lancing where humidity is higher. We install and replace extractor fans, connect them to existing wiring, and set them up with timer or humidity-sensor overruns so they continue running after you leave the room.
Outdoor and Security Lighting
Motion-sensor floodlights, garden lights, and porch lights all need proper exterior-rated wiring. We install outdoor lighting that is weatherproof and connected safely, keeping paths, driveways, and entry points well-lit for security and convenience.
Fault Finding and Repairs
If a circuit keeps tripping, a socket has stopped working, or you have flickering lights, we diagnose the problem and fix it. Electrical faults can be simple (a faulty appliance tripping the RCD) or more complex (a damaged cable in the wall), and we work through the issue methodically to find and resolve the root cause.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you add sockets to my home office?
Yes, this is one of our most common requests. We can add double sockets, data points, and USB outlets to home offices, spare bedrooms, and garden rooms on existing circuits.
How much does it cost to fit a light in Lancing?
A straightforward light fitting swap typically costs under a hundred pounds. Adding new light points or running new cables will be more. We quote each job individually.
Can you install a Ring doorbell or smart home device?
Yes. We install video doorbells, smart thermostats, and other devices that need wiring or wall mounting. If the device simply plugs in, you probably do not need us, but if it needs hardwiring or fixing to masonry, we can help.
Which electrical jobs are notifiable under Part P?
New circuits, electrical work in bathrooms, and consumer unit (fuse board) replacements are notifiable and must be certified by a registered competent person. We will always tell you when your job falls into this category and make sure it is handled correctly.
