How Our Rewiring Process Works

Undertaking an electrical rewire might seem daunting, but our experienced team ensures the process is smooth and carefully managed from start to finish. We work meticulously to minimise disruption to your daily life while delivering the highest standard of workmanship.1. Initial AssessmentWe begin with a thorough inspection of your current electrical system to determine whether a full or partial rewire is necessary. We listen to your requirements, assessing exactly where you need new sockets, modern lighting, or specific appliance feeds.2. First Fix InstallationThis stage involves the foundational work—lifting floorboards, chasing walls, and running new cables securely throughout your property. We take great care to protect your belongings, carpets, and furniture, ensuring we clean up thoroughly at the end of each day.3. Second Fix and TestingOnce any plastering is complete, we return to install your new faceplates, light fittings, and a modern consumer unit upgrade. Finally, we rigorously test the entire system to ensure complete safety and issue your official electrical installation certificates.

Why Upgrading Your Home Electrics is Essential

Investing in new wiring does more than just bring your property up to date; it fundamentally protects your home and family. Faulty or degrading wiring is one of the leading causes of electrical fires in the UK. By upgrading your system, you eliminate these hidden dangers and vastly improve your everyday electrical safety.A modern house rewire also gives you the freedom to design your home exactly how you want it. You can seamlessly add smart lighting, integrated USB sockets, and dedicated circuits for high-draw modern appliances like induction hobs or electric vehicle chargers. Furthermore, having a fully certified, up-to-date electrical system ensures your home insurance remains valid and can significantly boost the value of your property when it comes time to sell.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our house rewiring and electrical services in Felixstowe & Suffolk

How long does a full house rewire usually take?

+

For a standard three-bedroom semi-detached home, a full rewire typically takes between 5 to 10 working days. This depends on whether the house is empty or occupied and the complexity of the new layout you have chosen. We always provide a realistic timeline before we start so you can plan your week accordingly.

Will a rewire create a lot of mess in my home?

+

Replacing cables behind walls does involve lifting floorboards and occasionally cutting channels into plaster. However, we use professional dust extraction tools and heavy-duty floor protection to keep the impact to a minimum. We tidy up at the end of every day to keep your home habitable during the process.

Do I need to move out while the work is being done?

+

While it is often faster and easier if the property is vacant, we are very experienced at working around residents. We can work in stages, making sure you have power and water at the end of each working day. If you are staying in the property, we will discuss a room-by-room plan with you.

How do I know if my house needs a rewire or just a repair?

+

If your property hasn't been rewired in the last 25 to 30 years, it likely needs an upgrade. Clues like round-pin sockets, cables covered in black rubber or lead, and old-fashioned wooden-backed fuse boxes are clear indicators. We recommend an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) to give you a definitive answer on the health of your wiring.

Can you upgrade my fuse board without rewiring the whole house?

+

In some cases, yes. If your existing cabling is in good condition and passes our safety tests, we can perform a consumer unit upgrade to provide modern RCD protection. We will always give you an honest assessment of whether a full rewire is necessary or if a smaller upgrade will suffice.

How long does it take to rewire a house in Felixstowe?

+

For a standard three-bedroom semi-detached home, a full rewire typically takes between 5 to 10 working days. This depends on whether the property is empty or occupied. If you are living in the house, we work room by room to make sure you have power and water at the end of each day.

Do I have to move out during a rewire?

+

You don't have to move out, but it is much faster and less dusty if the property is vacant. If you choose to stay, we take extra care to protect your furniture and floorboards. We will discuss a schedule with you so you know exactly which rooms will be affected and when.

How do I know if my house needs a full rewire?

+

There are several warning signs to look out for. If your home has a fuse box with replaceable wire fuses, round pin sockets, or cables covered in black rubber or lead, it almost certainly needs a rewire. Other signs include persistent burning smells, flickering lights, or sockets that feel hot to the touch.

Will a rewire create a lot of mess in my home?

+

Replacing cables behind walls and under floorboards does involve some disruption. We have to create "chases" in the plaster to run new wires. However, we use dust extraction equipment and heavy-duty floor protection to keep the mess to an absolute minimum. We always tidy up thoroughly at the end of every shift.

Is a consumer unit upgrade the same as a rewire?

+

No. A consumer unit upgrade replaces your old fuse board with a modern one featuring RCD protection. While this is a great safety improvement, it doesn't replace the old wiring inside your walls. If your cables are perishing, a new consumer unit is only a partial fix; a full rewire is the only way to ensure the entire system is safe.
