Plug sockets and switches

[villa_tom]

Does anyone know a decent online place that sells plug sockets and switches and fuse spurs etc?

I'm changing every socket and switch in my new house and am just looking at prices.

Screwfix are coming in at the cheapest at the moment, but I thought I'd ask on here first

i want black nickel by the way

I personaly prefer white flat plate but you need deep patters for them they look dead smart though

Agree that some do but don`t recall changing any boxes. The remotes are pretty naff to look at but dare say a smartphone will do it nowadays.

They do em in White, think there was around 5 different colours I went for White on the walls and Mocha sockets to blend in with the wallpaper. Maybe not cheap but been 100% reliable.
