Our story

From first fix to final coat, one team.

Most home projects involve several kinds of work, and usually that means separate diaries, separate quotes and gaps in the middle where nobody is quite responsible.

Acorn was set up to close those gaps. The electrics, carpentry, fitting and decorating are handled by one team, so a kitchen, bathroom or garden building is planned once, ordered once and finished by the people who started it.

Why Acorn

What you get from a smaller firm

No account managers, no subcontracted crews you've never met. You deal with the person doing the work, which tends to concentrate the mind on getting it right.

01

One team from wiring to finishing

Electrics, carpentry, fitting and decorating under one roof, which removes the co-ordination, the gaps in responsibility and the second round of dust sheets.

02

Qualified where it counts

Phillip is a Part P and 18th Edition qualified electrician. Electrical work is carried out to current regulations, tested and certified.

03

Residential is the whole focus

Acorn works in people's homes, not factories. That shapes everything: how we protect your floors, how we work around family life and how we finish the edges you'll see every day.

04

Options explained before decisions

A thorough consultation covering what's possible, what it involves and what it costs, so you can choose the scope that suits your home and budget.

05

Straight answers on cost

Free quotes and a simple deposit on larger jobs: 50% on anything over £500, with the balance on completion. No moving numbers.

06

Local to Norwich and the Broads villages

Based in Hassingham, working across Norwich and the surrounding Norfolk villages. Close enough to come back if you ever need us.

How we work

Start to finish, we take care of it all

Planning, ordering, creation and completion, all handled by Acorn with one point of contact throughout.

  1. 01

    Planning

    We visit, listen and talk through the options that suit your home and budget, then confirm everything in a free, written quote. Projects over £500 take a 50% deposit, with the balance on completion.

  2. 02

    Ordering

    We source and order the materials, units and fittings, and arrange deliveries around the programme, so you're never left chasing suppliers. Already chosen your own? We're happy to fit them.

  3. 03

    Creation

    The work itself, carried out carefully and tidily by one team for the electrics, fitting and finishing. You'll know who is coming and what's happening each day.

  4. 04

    Completion

    Electrical work tested and certified, every detail checked, and the space cleaned and handed back only when you're happy. Afterwards, you'll still speak to the same person who did the job.
