What we do in N4
Stroud Green is almost entirely late-Victorian terrace, and most of it has been split into flats at some point since the 1970s — which means the electrics tell the story of every conversion. The typical job is a landlord EICR on a converted flat that finds an old Wylex board with no RCD, a lighting circuit with no earth, a kitchen ring that was extended into the extension by whoever fitted the units, and a shared intake in the hall cupboard with three meters and no labels: C2s we fix from £108 and, where the board is the problem, a consumer unit replacement from £550 labour-only — see fuse boards in Haringey. In the whole-house family homes on the Mount View and Ridge Road side it’s loft-conversion circuits, kitchen extensions, outdoor and garden-office supplies, EV chargers where there’s off-street parking, and full rewires — priced on the house rewire cost guide. Around Blackstock Road and the Finsbury Park end it’s flats above shops and HMOs. If the power is actually off, our emergency electrician Haringey page covers urgent response.

N4 landlords: two boroughs, two sets of rules
Stroud Green straddles the Haringey/Islington boundary — roughly, north and west of Stroud Green Road is Haringey, the Finsbury Park side is Islington — and the two councils license differently. Islington’s additional licensing covers HMOs borough-wide; Haringey’s HMO and selective licensing schemes cover specific wards, so check the council map for your street before assuming you are outside it. Either way the 2020 Regulations apply: a satisfactory EICR every 5 years, a copy to every new tenant before they move in, remedials within 28 days of an unsatisfactory report, and since 1 May 2026 civil penalties up to £40,000 per breach under the Renters’ Rights Act. Converted-house freeholders should also budget for the communal hall and stair lighting circuit, which is inspected separately. Our C2 fault catalogue lists the faults we find most in N4 conversions, and the landlord compliance checklist covers the paperwork.
Why Stroud Green calls us
Tottenham N15 base, Green Lanes or Seven Sisters Road straight in — we are the local firm, not a franchise sending someone from Croydon. NICEIC registered, so certificates are genuine and notifiable work is signed off with building control. We know the conversion layouts: where the original board was, where the second one got hidden, how to trace which flat a hall light is actually wired to. Fixed labour-only quotes before we start, materials at cost, and the same electrician returning for remedials. Neighbouring pages: Finsbury Park, Archway N19, Wood Green N22, Tottenham and the borough pages electrician Haringey and electrician Islington.
Frequently asked questions
How much does an electrician cost in Stroud Green?
Minimum charge £108 (£90 + VAT) for small jobs; EICRs from £140; consumer unit replacement from £550; all labour-only with materials at cost. See the EICR cost guide.
My flat’s fuse board is in another flat’s hallway. Can you still do the EICR?
Yes — it is common in N4 conversions. We arrange access, test from your board, and note the arrangement on the report. If circuits from two flats are mixed on one board that is usually a C2 and we will quote to separate them.
Do you cover the Crouch End end of Stroud Green?
Yes — Mount View Road, Ridge Road, Stapleton Hall Road and up to Crouch End Broadway, plus all of N4 and N8.
How quickly can you come out?
Same-week as standard; same-day or next-day for tenancy starts and no-power faults where a slot is free.
Is Stroud Green in Haringey’s selective licensing area?
Parts of Haringey are, and the boundaries follow wards rather than postcodes — check your address on the council’s licensing map. Whether or not you need a licence, the 5-year EICR duty applies to every let.
Stroud Green is one of the areas we cover across North London — see all service areas. Call 07407 627542 or 07500 721453, or WhatsApp a photo of your fuse board for a fixed quote.
