NICEIC Approved electricians serving Hove and Brighton — domestic, commercial and 24/7 emergency work, fully guaranteed.
Electrician in Hove
Need a dependable electrician in Hove? L&V Electrical is a NICEIC Approved contractor working out of Worthing, just along the coast, and Hove is a regular fixture on our weekly rounds. Our City & Guilds qualified, gold-card electricians know the area’s housing well — the Victorian and Edwardian villas of Aldrington and Poets’ Corner, the Regency mansion flats around Brunswick Town and the Kingsway seafront, and the busy rental and HMO stock off Church Road and New Church Road, where period conversions often hide tired wiring and ageing consumer units. Salt air and damp take their toll on seafront blocks too, so we test thoroughly before we sign anything off. Fully insured, DBS-checked and backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, we handle full rewires, landlord EICRs, fuse board upgrades, EV chargers and emergency callouts — done properly, tidily and to BS 7671.

Hove, From Our Base in Worthing
People sometimes wonder whether a Worthing electrician really covers Hove — we do, week in, week out. Hove sits around 9 miles east of our Goring Road base via the A259/A270, right next to Brighton, so it’s an easy run for our team. Because we’re a local Sussex firm rather than a national chain, you get the same named, accredited electrician on every visit, fair local pricing, and someone who genuinely understands the area’s housing stock — from Regency mansion flats and period conversions that need careful rewiring to seafront blocks battling damp and salt-air corrosion. No premium “city” call-out fees, no anonymous sub-contractors.
