- EV charger installationWhere a detached house on a road such as Alwoodley Lane or Wigton Lane has a drive or garage, a wall charger goes in once we have checked the supply and earthing.
- Consumer unit upgradesA large house adding a charger, hot tub or air conditioning can outgrow an older consumer unit, and a new board puts every circuit on modern protection.
- Security lightingA detached house with garden on every side has more ground to cover, and PIR lighting lights drives and paths only when someone is there.

Electrical work in Alwoodley
Alwoodley’s LS17 streets lie five miles north of central Leeds, with Adel to the west, Shadwell to the east and Moortown to the south. Its housing falls into four areas: Alwoodley Park, the Sandmoor estate, Primley Park and the streets between King Lane and Nursery Lane that are named after golf courses. Nearly all of it is low-rise detached or semi-detached. The roads around the Sandmoors, Alwoodley Lane and Wigton Lane include large detached family homes, a few mansions and some of the most exclusive flat developments in the city. Three golf clubs, Alwoodley, Moortown and Sand Moor, sit within the area, with Eccup Reservoir to the north.
Big houses tend to carry big electrical loads, and adding an EV charger, a hot tub or air conditioning can push an older board past what it was designed for. A consumer unit upgrade puts every circuit on modern protection and leaves spare capacity for what comes next. Outside, security lighting on drives, gates and side paths is one of the simplest ways to make a detached house feel safer after dark.

Questions from Alwoodley
What people in Alwoodley ask us most. Not covered here? Ring and ask.
Do you cover all of Alwoodley, including Sandmoor and Primley Park?
Yes. Alwoodley Park, the Sandmoor estate, Primley Park and the streets off King Lane are all part of the LS17 area we serve. If you live out towards Eccup, give us your address and we will confirm.
Can a large Alwoodley house run an EV charger on its existing supply?
In many cases, yes, but it depends on what else is already drawing power. We check the incoming supply, earthing and consumer unit before fitting any EV charger, and tell you before we start if an upgrade or a load-managed charger is the better route.
