Don't just take our word for it — here's what recent customers think.
"I have used Lilliput electrical for about 11 years. Tim wired my kitchen extension, and put in a consumer unit when I moved into my home. More recently he has carried out a number of smaller jobs including moving a socket and advising about and fitting lighting. He is always courteous and very helpful. This firm is very trustworthy and the work is tidily completed. I have no hesitation in recommending them as genuinely no job is too big or too small."

"We have used Lilliput Electrical for the past five years. They have installed numerous items for us in that time, including going out of their way to source out of stock items. They are great to work with and we find them to be reliable and very professional. They are who we shall call for our future electrical needs."

"Excellent! On time, worked quickly, great manners and most importantly none of the standard cowboy tradesman BS. Highly recommend!! Thanks Tim!"
Google Review
"Five stars without hesitation. Tim and the Lilliput Electrical team have supported us on a full renovation rewire, EV charger installation and various smaller jobs over the years. Their communication is clear, pricing is transparent and accurate, and the quality of work is consistently excellent. They're professional, reliable and leave the place immaculate every time. An easy recommendation — I wouldn't go anywhere else."

A snapshot of projects we've completed across Boscombe and Dorset.
Yes — we carry out EICRs, fire alarm testing, and emergency lighting installations for HMOs. We understand the specific compliance requirements for licensed and mandatory HMOs in BCP Council's area.
EICRs start from £120 for a standard domestic property. Larger HMOs with more circuits may be more — we quote based on the number of circuits.
Yes — we install Grade A, B, and D fire alarm systems depending on the property type and HMO licensing requirements. All installations are certified to BS 5839.
Lilliput Electrical serves Boscombe from our Poole base, around 16 minutes away. Boscombe is one of Bournemouth’s most densely populated areas, stretching from Boscombe Spa and the seafront through to Pokesdown and Springbourne. The housing stock is predominantly Victorian and Edwardian, with a high proportion of properties converted into flats and HMOs (Houses in Multiple Occupation).
Boscombe has one of the highest concentrations of HMOs in the BCP Council area. Landlords operating licensed HMOs face specific electrical requirements beyond a standard EICR, including adequate fire alarm provision (typically Grade A LD2 to BS 5839), emergency lighting on escape routes, and sufficient socket provision to reduce reliance on extension leads and adaptors.
We provide a complete HMO electrical compliance service — from initial assessment through to certification. This includes EICRs, fire alarm installation and testing, emergency lighting, and any remedial work needed to bring a property up to the required standard. We work with landlords, managing agents, and letting agents and provide the documentation needed for HMO licence applications.
EICRs start from £120 for standard domestic properties. For HMOs and larger properties with more circuits, pricing is based on the number of circuits inspected. We provide clear, detailed reports and are happy to discuss findings directly with landlords, agents, or tenants.
Under current legislation, all privately rented properties must have a valid EICR completed by a qualified electrician. We can usually schedule inspections within a few days and provide certificates promptly.
Boscombe’s Victorian terraces often contain wiring of varying ages — sometimes original rubber-sheathed cables alongside later additions. A full rewire brings the entire installation up to 18th Edition standards. Rewires for a typical 3-bed house start from £5,500. For converted flats, we work within the individual unit and coordinate with building managers where communal areas are affected.
Consumer unit upgrades from £450 provide immediate safety improvement where a full rewire is not yet needed.
Boscombe’s ongoing regeneration means we also carry out commercial electrical work for new and refurbished business premises — from lighting and power installations to full fit-outs and compliance testing.
