Electrical work in Roundhay
Including Gledhow, LS8.
Roundhay is one of Leeds’ more established suburbs, with larger period homes, bigger gardens and more driveways than you’ll find closer to the city centre. That shapes what we’re asked to do here more than almost anywhere else we cover: exterior electrics, EV charging and wiring that has to keep up with an older property that’s since been extended. Martin Day Electricians covers Roundhay and the surrounding streets as part of our regular Leeds coverage area, working from fully qualified, NICEIC and Part P certified electricians with over 30 years trading across the city.
Whether it’s a single fault or a project that spans the house and the garden, we give you a written estimate before any work starts.

Martin installed a tricky outdoor socket for our patio, and updated and improved the electrics for the house. We found him friendly, reliable and efficient and would not hesitate to recommend him further.

Questions from Roundhay
What people in Roundhay ask us most. Not covered here? Ring and ask.
Do you cover Oakwood and Moortown as well as Roundhay?
Yes. We cover Roundhay and the surrounding streets as part of our wider Leeds coverage area, including the neighbouring parts of Oakwood and Moortown. If you're not sure whether your address is in range, call us and we'll tell you straight away.
Do you charge to attend a job in Roundhay?
We charge for the first hour to attend. That hour includes up to an hour to resolve the fault, and we explain what we find and what any further work will cost before you decide. For planned work, such as a rewire or a consumer unit, you get a written estimate before work starts.
Can you fit an EV charger at an older property in Roundhay?
Yes. Many of Roundhay's period homes have wiring and consumer units that predate EV charging altogether, so we check the supply and earthing arrangement first, and upgrade the consumer unit if it's needed before the charger goes in.
