Electrical

New socket

zee 10/07/2026 - 9.52 AM

I am looking for a qualified electrician to install a new double socket behind a wall-mounted TV in a second-floor bedroom. There are currently no sockets on the wall where the TV will be mounted. The nearest existing socket is on the adjacent wall near the window. The house was built in 2003, and I would like the cable routed through the loft if possible to minimise any damage, as the walls were only painted last year. I am looking for a neat, professional installation with no visible cables once the TV is mounted. Unless there are other options available

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

If you got partition wall (plasterboard with insulation inside), than possible to run cable for tv socket with minimal damage. To find nearest socket not always best scenario, because cables can be not easy accesible, especially if wall not internal. Qualified electrician will find the best option in place.
