01The Service

What a rewire involves.

A rewire replaces the existing wiring in a home with a new electrical installation. A full rewire covers the whole property. A partial rewire deals with part of it, such as one floor, an extension or a set of circuits.

Electrical wiring can become outdated as properties age and household electricity demands change. Rewiring brings the installation up to date for the way the home is used now, and it is often carried out together with a fuse board upgrade.

No two properties are the same, so the scope of every rewire is discussed and agreed with you before any work starts.

02When You Might Need It

Signs a home may need rewiring.

Not every older home needs a full rewire, but these are common reasons to have the wiring looked at.

  • The wiring is original to an older property or has not been updated in many years.
  • Breakers trip or fuses blow regularly.
  • Sockets, switches or fittings are scorched, discoloured or warm to the touch.
  • There are not enough sockets, so adaptors and extension leads are in everyday use.
  • You are renovating, extending or changing the layout of the home.

If you notice a burning smell, scorch marks or sparking, stop using the affected circuit and have it checked by a qualified electrician.

  1. 01

    How long does a house rewire take?

    It depends on the size of the property, how much of it is being rewired and how easy the existing wiring is to reach. A timeframe is given with your quotation once the scope is agreed.

  2. 02

    Is a partial rewire an option?

    Yes. Where only part of the installation needs attention, a partial rewire may be enough. Whether it is suitable depends on the condition of the rest of the wiring.

  3. 03

    Can I stay in the house during a rewire?

    That depends on the scope of the work. Access to rooms, and when the power needs to be off, are discussed with you before the work begins so you can plan around it.

  4. 04

    Will the fuse board need replacing too?

    Not always, but a rewire is a good time to look at it. If the board is older or does not suit the new installation, a fuse board upgrade can be quoted as part of the same job.
