Victoria Street Village Core
The older granite cottages and stone houses along the original A947 village street. These carry the oldest wiring in Dyce, so EICRs, rewires and fuseboard upgrades come up most here.
AB21 · Dyce · By Aberdeen Airport, on the River Don
NICEIC approved electrician in Dyce, for the homes and the businesses by the airport.
Faithful Spark Electricians cover both sides of Dyce, the family homes around Victoria Street and the new builds at Otter Stone Manor, and the commercial units around Kirkhill, Farburn and the airport business park. Fuseboard upgrades, EICRs, EV chargers, rewires and light commercial work, all led personally by Steven Watt.
Your Local Dyce Electrician
A village core, a commuter suburb and the city's busiest commercial corner.
Dyce sits about six miles north west of Aberdeen on the west bank of the River Don, and it has two faces. There is the old village along Victoria Street and the streets that grew around it as the airport and the oil industry took off from 1974, now a settled commuter suburb of roughly 6,000 people with its own academy and the railway link back into town. Then there is the commercial Dyce, the airport, the Aberdeen International Business Park and the Kirkhill, Farburn and Pitmedden industrial estates, the densest run of oil and gas premises anywhere in the North East. We work across both, and Steven Watt leads every Dyce job himself.

Dyce Property Knowledge
From granite cottages to three phase units, one local electrician.
Dyce is a real mix, and the building tells us what to expect behind the wall before we lift a single faceplate. Here is the range we work across.
Airport Era Estates
The semi and terraced homes around Pitmedden Road and Riverview Drive that filled out as the airport and oil industry grew through the 1970s and 1980s. Split load boards and ageing circuits are common.
Otter Stone Manor & New Builds
The David Wilson Homes development on Meadowview Drive near the river, with its first residents in from September 2025. Modern boards already fitted, so the calls are EV chargers and extra circuits.
Industrial & Commercial Units
Kirkhill, Farburn and Pitmedden estates, plus the business park units. Three phase supplies, workshop wiring, emergency lighting and landlord EICRs for tenanted commercial space.
What We Do in Dyce
Home and commercial electrical work, one number to call.
Whether it is a tripping board on a Victoria Street morning or an EICR on a tenanted unit near the airport, here is where most Dyce calls land.
Fuseboard & Consumer Unit Upgrades
Full RCBO boards replacing tired village and estate units. Every circuit individually protected, no whole house blackouts.
Commercial & Industrial
Light commercial and three phase work for the units around Kirkhill, Farburn and the business park. Fit outs, EICRs and emergency lighting.
EV Charger Installation
Smart, solar ready home chargers for new builds and commuter driveways, plus workplace charging for commercial premises.
EICRs & Safety Reports
Condition reports for homeowners, landlords and commercial tenants, Repairing Standard compliant, clear C1 to C3 coding.
Rewires & Circuit Additions
Full and partial rewires for older village homes, plus extra sockets and dedicated circuits for kitchens, showers and garden offices.
Fault Finding & Repairs
Tripping RCDs, dead sockets, lights that flicker. Booked promptly around home and business hours, price agreed before we start.
How We Work
Fitted around shift patterns and opening hours, certified before we leave.
Dyce runs on shift work and business hours, so we keep the process tight and predictable from the first call to the final certificate.

Call 07304 027013Modern protection for older Dyce wiring.
The older homes around Victoria Street and the airport era estates were wired to the standards of their day, and many still run on old rewirable or early plastic boards with little or no RCD protection. The first sign of trouble is usually nuisance tripping, often on a damp morning, or a board that has no test button at all. A modern consumer unit fixes that properly.
We only fit full RCBO consumer units, never split load boards. With a full RCBO board, every circuit gets its own combined breaker and earth fault protection, so if one appliance faults, only that circuit drops and the rest of the house stays live.
- Full pre install testing of the existing installation before anything changes.
- An 18th Edition compliant full RCBO board, typically Hager, MK or Wylex.
- AFDD arc fault detection and SPD surge protection where they add real value.
- Main bonding to gas and water checked and brought up to standard.
- An Electrical Installation Certificate to BS 7671 issued on completion.
A typical 100A domestic upgrade in Dyce is £550 to £950 + VAT. If you are not sure whether yours is due, our guide on whether a consumer unit upgrade in Aberdeen is worth it is worth a read, then call 07304 027013.
The business side of Dyce, from Kirkhill to the airport.
Dyce is not just homes. The Kirkhill, Farburn and Pitmedden industrial estates and the Aberdeen International Business Park hold one of the densest concentrations of commercial premises in the North East, much of it serving the oil and gas industry. That brings a different kind of electrical work, and we are set up for the lighter end of it alongside the domestic side.
- Three phase supplies and distribution for workshops and units.
- Commercial EICRs for tenanted units, with clear coding for landlords and agents.
- Emergency lighting and small power for offices and warehouses.
- Additional circuits, socket runs and lighting for office fit outs.
- EV charging points for staff car parks and small commercial fleets.
Larger industrial jobs we will be honest about and point you to the right specialist where needed. For the day to day commercial work that keeps a Dyce unit running, see our commercial electrician in Aberdeen page, or call to talk it through.
EV chargers for Dyce homes and workplaces.
Dyce has a strong EV case, with off street parking on most homes and a commuter population that runs the numbers. The new homes at Otter Stone Manor are sold to EV minded buyers from day one, and there is workplace charging demand across the business units too. Every home charger we fit is smart, as the law requires, and solar ready, so it can charge from your own panels when you add them.
- Free site survey to check the supply, the consumer unit and the cable route.
- Smart 7.4kW units from Ohme, TeltoCharge, Hypervolt Home 3 Pro and myenergi Zappi.
- DNO and ENA notification handled for you where it is required.
- Workplace and small fleet charging for commercial premises.
- NICEIC certification on completion of every install.
Home installs start from £900 + VAT for a basic 7.4kW smart unit with a cable run up to 15 metres. Runs over 15 metres, a consumer unit upgrade or an earthing upgrade are quoted honestly after the survey. Steven Watt holds the City and Guilds 2921-34 EV charging award. See our wider EV charger installation service for more.
Condition reports for Dyce homes, rentals and units.
An Electrical Installation Condition Report is the proper way to find out what an installation is actually doing. For homeowners it is a sensible health check on an older Victoria Street property, before a renovation, or at the point of sale. For landlords it is a legal duty, with a satisfactory EICR needed at least every five years under Scotland's Repairing Standard. For commercial tenants and agents it keeps a unit compliant and insurable.
We test every circuit, then grade what we find. A C1 means danger present, a C2 means potentially dangerous, and a C3 is an improvement recommendation. Any C1, C2 or FI makes the report unsatisfactory. You get a clear digital certificate and a plain English explanation of every code.
Domestic EICRs in Dyce run from £150 to £380 + VAT depending on size, with landlord and commercial reports quoted to the property. See our main EICR in Aberdeen page for the full detail.

Rewires, extra circuits and the small jobs that matter.
Plenty of Dyce calls are not large projects. The older village homes were wired well before electric showers, induction hobs and home offices became standard, so as families update and extend, the original circuits run short. Then there is all the everyday work that keeps a home safe and comfortable.
- Full and partial rewires for older village and estate homes.
- New dedicated circuits for showers, hobs, ovens and garden offices.
- LED downlights for kitchens, hallways and open plan living, fully fire rated.
- Outdoor and security lighting on RCD protected circuits with IP65 fittings.
- AICO interlinked smoke and heat alarms to meet Scotland's alarm legislation.
A full rewire in Dyce typically falls between £3,500 and £14,000+ + VAT depending on the size of the home and how much making good is involved. We plan cable runs before the first board lifts and keep an occupied home liveable while the work runs.

FAQs
Dyce questions, answered straight.
Don't see your question? Call 07304 027013 or get in touch and we will come back inside an hour during business hours.
Do you do commercial work in the Kirkhill or Farburn estates and the business park?
Yes. We cover light commercial and three phase work for the units around Kirkhill, Farburn and Pitmedden, and the offices at the Aberdeen International Business Park. Think additional circuits, lighting, emergency lighting, fit out work and commercial EICRs for tenanted units. For very large industrial installs we will be honest and point you to the right specialist, but most day to day business work we handle directly.
Is Dyce in Aberdeen City or Aberdeenshire?
Dyce is in the Aberdeen City council area, postcode AB21, about six miles north west of the city centre. It was part of Aberdeenshire historically but was brought into the city in 1996. For anything official, such as a landlord EICR, the authority is Aberdeen City Council.
My Dyce home is older, around Victoria Street. Does it need a rewire or an EICR?
The older granite homes along the village core often carry the oldest wiring in Dyce, so it is worth knowing what is there. An EICR tells you the true condition, and from that we can advise whether a full rewire, a partial rewire or simply a fuseboard upgrade is the sensible step. We never push a rewire that is not needed. Domestic EICRs in Dyce are £150 to £380 + VAT depending on size.
Can you fit an EV charger at Otter Stone Manor?
Yes. New build plots usually have modern wiring and an off street driveway already, which makes them straightforward. We carry out a free survey, confirm the supply and cable route, handle the DNO notification if it is needed, and fit a smart, solar ready 7.4kW charger from £900 + VAT.
Do my Dyce rental properties need an EICR?
Yes. Under Scotland's Repairing Standard, every privately rented home must have a satisfactory EICR at least every five years, and Aberdeen City Council can ask to see it. We test every circuit, code each finding from C1 to C3, and issue a clear digital certificate. Landlord EICRs in Dyce start from £150 + VAT.
Can you provide a three phase supply for a unit near the airport?
Yes, three phase work is common across the Dyce industrial estates and we are set up for it. We can extend or add three phase distribution, wire workshop equipment and add the protection and emergency lighting a commercial unit needs. Tell us the unit and the equipment when you call and we will scope it properly.
