In England, much electrical work in homes must follow the Building Regulations (known as Part P). Bigger jobs, such as a new circuit or changing the consumer unit, are notifiable: they should be done by someone registered with a competent person scheme, or approved by building control. Simple like-for-like swaps, such as replacing a socket or light fitting, are generally not notifiable but must still be done safely. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so ask when you agree the job.
For new circuits and larger work, ask for an Electrical Installation Certificate. For smaller additions, a Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate. Keep these safe: they are useful when you sell or let your home.
Post your job free and describe what you need. Local people send their price and a short message, and you choose. Ask to see anyone's registration or certificates before work begins.
Small jobs can be safe if you know what you are doing and have turned the power off at the consumer unit and tested it is dead. If you are unsure, it is worth getting help.
