Discover Woodford – A Blend of History, Green Space & Community

Woodford is a well-established and highly desirable area in East London, located within the London Borough of Redbridge, around 9.5 miles from Central London. Historically, it was an ancient parish in Essex made up of small rural settlements, many of which developed around the edges of the beautiful Epping Forest.

Today, Woodford has grown into a thriving suburban community that still retains much of its leafy charm. Areas such as Woodford Green, South Woodford, and Woodford Bridge each offer a unique feel, but all benefit from strong transport links via the Central Line, making it ideal for commuters while maintaining a quieter, family-friendly environment.

The area is also known for its historical connections, including links to figures such as Winston Churchill and William Morris, as well as its long-standing reputation as a desirable residential location for those wanting space, greenery, and access to London. 

With a mix of period properties, modern homes, and growing local businesses, Woodford continues to be a place where quality workmanship and reliable tradespeople are highly valued — especially when it comes to electrical safety and upgrades.

New oven fitted Loughton

Fitting a New Oven

Have you brought and received a new cooker and need it fitting? or a company has been paid to install it however when they turn up, they say

Your installation is not how they expected it to be, or is unsafe for them to proceed?

Don't panic we hear this all the time and it is normal, not all electrics are installed the same. Many of them installed by kitchen fitting companies and not up to current regulations.

Old Storage Heater

Old Storage Heaters

Economy Seven (E7) storage heating, using cheaper off-peak electricity, certainly sounds like a good idea. More recent heaters are a good idea – but some older installations may well be in urgent need of replacement.

Older storage heaters are typically coloured brown, take up unreasonable amounts of living space, and tend to look unsightly in almost any room – especially one that has recently been decorated! There is little you can do to improve their appearance – you can’t cover them with MDF radiator covers, and they can’t be painted.

Remove The Plug Wiring Card!

This information they give us on how the plug is wired is very nice, however, if you leave the card on the plug it can cause issues its self.

In the kitchen, it can hold moisture against the electrical socket or if on an extension lead or kettle that makes the plug hot in normal operation this card is not as heat rated as the wall socket or plug is manufactured to
