Electrician in Pontypridd: Cardiff Electrician is Jorge Simoes, a qualified and insured electrician based in Cardiff since 2014. We cover Pontypridd and Treforest for rewires, consumer unit upgrades, landlord smoke alarms, electric showers and fault finding.
Pontypridd sits where the Rhondda meets the Taff, a short run up the A470 from our Cardiff base. It is a gateway to the valleys, and its hillside streets are a big part of its character.
Much of the town's housing is made up of older terraces climbing the valley sides in areas like Trallwn, the Graig and Cilfynydd. Many of these homes have wiring that has been updated in parts over the years, plus older fuse boxes, so full rewires, consumer unit replacements and fault finding are regular jobs. Electric showers and extra sockets are common upgrades when these houses are modernised.
Treforest is home to a University of South Wales campus, and many of its terraces are let to students. Welsh rented homes need mains-wired interlinked smoke alarms on every storey, and we fit these for landlords there, along with extra sockets, extractor fans and PAT testing for furnished rooms. In newer developments around Church Village and Llantwit Fardre, families tend to ask for EV chargers, garden electrics and smart doorbells. All work is carried out to BS 7671.

Electrician in Pontypridd: FAQs
I let student houses in Treforest. Can you help?
Yes. Welsh rented homes need mains-wired interlinked smoke alarms on every storey, and we fit these in shared houses across Treforest. Student lets also often need a modern consumer unit, extra sockets for desks, extractor fans to keep condensation down and PAT testing for furnished rooms.
Do you cover Pontypridd and the surrounding villages?
Yes. Pontypridd is a short trip up the A470 from our Cardiff base, and we cover Treforest, Trallwn, Cilfynydd, Rhydyfelin, Church Village, Llantwit Fardre and Beddau. Call 029 2000 1399 and we aim to offer same-week appointments where possible.
Can you rewire a terrace on a steep street?
Yes. Hillside terraces are common around Pontypridd, and they are rewired in the same careful, room-by-room way as any other home. We agree socket and lighting positions with you first, keep disruption down, and test and certify the finished work to BS 7671.

I had a number of small electrical jobs for Jorge to do. He completed everything quickly, professionally and to a high standard. Jorge was very polite and helpful and clearly takes pride in his work. I would 100% call him if I need more electrical work doing.
I have been a private landlord 25 years and can count the reviews I've left on one hand. I've known Jorge several years. He is a trusted professional, timely and charges competitive rates.
We initially asked Jorge to help us after being let down by another electrician, and he was only too happy to help make some bad work safe... Jorge always explains what is going on and helps us understand more about how electrics work. He is thorough, leaves no mess behind and very reliable.
