Electricians & plumbers in Hampstead & Belsize Park
Electricians, plumbers and property maintenance across Hampstead and Belsize Park, with careful, tidy work in period houses and mansion flats.
Working in Hampstead & Belsize Park
NW3 covers Hampstead, Belsize Park, Swiss Cottage and parts of South Hampstead, in the London Borough of Camden. Much of it is Victorian and Edwardian houses and mansion blocks, and large parts are conservation areas.
Period homes need a careful approach: protecting floors and original features, chasing cables without damaging cornices or panelling, and planning rewires and consumer unit upgrades so the house stays liveable. We work in NW3 regularly for homeowners, landlords and agents.
Typical jobs here are electrical faults and upgrades, consumer units, plumbing and leaks, handyman repairs and redecoration between tenancies, all with photos and certificates sent when the work is done.
Property licensing in Hampstead & Belsize Park
Camden does not run selective licensing, so a house or flat in Hampstead let to one household does not need a council licence.
Camden’s borough-wide additional HMO licensing runs from 8 December 2025 to 7 December 2030. Any shared house or flat with three or more people from two or more households needs a licence, including flats in purpose-built blocks.
Every let still needs an EICR at least every five years and a gas safety record every year. In older NW3 houses, an EICR is often the first time anyone has looked properly at the wiring in years, and we explain what we find in plain English.
Licensing rules change, so always check the exact address with Camden Council. Correct as of November 2026.

Common questions
Can you rewire a period house without ruining the plaster?
Yes. We plan cable routes to avoid cornices, panelling and original features where we can, protect floors throughout, and make good afterwards.
Does my Hampstead rental need a licence?
Only if it is shared. Camden has no selective licensing, but HMOs of three or more people need a licence across the borough until December 2030.
Do you work in mansion flats?
Yes. We arrange access with the porter or managing agent and work within the block’s rules.
Do you cover Belsize Park and Swiss Cottage?
Yes. We cover all of NW3, including Hampstead, Belsize Park and Swiss Cottage.
