What should I do if my home needs rewiring?

Many homeowners worry about the disruption and cost of house rewiring. If your property is over 25 years old, has an outdated fuse board, or suffers from frequently tripping switches, a rewire may be essential to prevent fire risks.The first step is to book an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR). Our electricians will comprehensively test your current system to identify any hidden hazards and determine if a full or partial rewire is necessary. This is especially vital for landlords needing up-to-date electrical safety certificates.If a rewire is needed, we will plan the project carefully to minimise downtime. We can also coordinate with our interior decorating team to seamlessly patch and paint any chased walls once the new wiring is securely in place.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our domestic electrical services in Felixstowe & Suffolk

How often should I have an EICR Felixstowe homeowners ask?

+

For most domestic properties, it is recommended to have an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) carried out every 10 years if you own the home. However, if you are a landlord, the law requires this to be done every 5 years or at the start of a new tenancy. It is a vital check-up for your home’s "hidden" wiring.

What are the signs that I need house rewiring?

+

If your property is over 30 to 40 years old and hasn't been updated, it may be time for a rewire. Common signs include frequent blown fuses, flickering lights, sockets that feel hot to the touch, or green residue on the wiring. If you still have a fuse box with replaceable wire, an upgrade is usually a smart move for safety.

Do I really need a Part P compliant electrician for socket installation?

+

While adding a socket might seem simple, certain areas of the home (like kitchens and bathrooms) and major new circuits are "notifiable" under Part P regulations. Using an NICEIC approved electrician ensures that the work is logged with local building control, which is essential for home insurance and future house sales.

What should I do if my power keeps tripping?

+

Tripping is a safety feature, but if it happens often, it indicates a fault. It could be a faulty appliance, a damp circuit, or a loose connection. You should call an expert for professional fault finding rather than repeatedly resetting the breaker, as this can lead to electrical fires or damage to your electronics.

How often should I have an EICR carried out on my home?

+

For owner-occupied homes, it is recommended to have an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) every 10 years. However, if you are a landlord, the law requires this every 5 years or at the start of a new tenancy. It is also a very good idea to have one done if you are buying a previously owned property to avoid expensive surprises after you move in.

What are the signs that my house needs rewiring?

+

If your property is over 25 or 30 years old and hasn't been updated, it might be time for a check. Common signs include a fuse box with wooden backing, cables coated in black rubber rather than modern PVC, frequent blown fuses, or sockets that feel hot to the touch. We can perform a quick assessment to let you know if a full or partial rewire is necessary.

Can I install my own sockets or lighting?

+

While simple tasks like changing a lightbulb are fine, most electrical work in the home falls under Part P of the Building Regulations. This means it must be carried out by a competent person to meet safety standards. Attempting DIY electrical work can lead to fire risks, void your home insurance, and cause issues when you try to sell your property.

What should I do if my power keeps tripping?

+

A tripping circuit is a safety feature doing its job. It usually means a circuit is overloaded or there is a faulty appliance. Try unplugging everything on that circuit and resetting the breaker. If it continues to trip, you likely have a wiring fault. In this case, you should call us for professional fault finding to prevent any damage or danger.
