House rewiring services from JD Electricals

House rewiring in Kempshott

JD Electricals carries out house rewiring in Kempshott. The visit starts with which circuits need a full rewire and which need a partial, using the held stock around Pack Lane.

“Most of my work is domestic: consumer units, full and partial rewires, lighting and EICRs on houses around Basingstoke. I test and certify everything I fit, and anything else I find while I am there gets priced separately rather than added quietly to the bill. The electrician who quotes your job is the one who does it.”

How house rewiring is priced

House rewiring is quoted after reviewing the requirements of the property. The quotation details what work is covered before work starts so there are no hidden additions.

  • The price covers the complete installation of new domestic wiring, circuit testing and your electrical installation certificate.
  • Property size, the total number of circuits and the quantity of socket and lighting points will change the price.
  • Plastering, painting and decorative making good are not included and are priced separately.
  • Any unforeseen repairs or additions discovered during the work are priced on their own before being carried out.

What happens during a house rewire

A full house rewire follows a methodical sequence to remove redundant cabling, install new wiring paths and verify electrical safety across the entire installation.

  1. 01

    Power isolation and safe access

    Work begins by isolating the existing electrical supply to ensure safety while taking out obsolete circuits. Floor coverings are lifted where needed and access paths are prepared through joists and walls for the new cable runs.

  2. 02

    Cabling installation to every room

    New cables are drawn through the home to feed every switch, socket and luminaire. Circuits are run directly back to the consumer unit, setting clean containment and secure back boxes throughout each space.

  3. 03

    Testing and certification

    Once all connections are made, every circuit undergoes systematic electrical testing to check continuity, insulation resistance and earth fault loop impedance. You receive the completed domestic electrical installation certificate for your records.

Common questions about rewiring in Kempshott

Here are answers to frequent questions homeowners and landlords ask when planning a domestic rewire in Kempshott.

How do I know if my house in Kempshott needs rewiring?+

Houses with dated rubber, lead or fabric-sheathed cabling, or installations lacking modern protective devices, often require rewiring. If your home regularly trips breakers, has round-pin sockets, or has not had its wiring replaced in several decades, a full rewire is usually the safest option.

— James Dunn

Can I stay in my Kempshott home while the rewire takes place?+

Rewiring involves lifting flooring and cutting into walls to install cables, creating dust and requiring the power to be disconnected during working hours. While it is possible to remain in the property, many homeowners choose to vacate temporarily for convenience while the heavy cabling work is completed.

— James Dunn

Does the rewiring price include plastering and painting?+

No. The quotation covers running new cables, fitting back boxes, connecting accessories, installing the consumer unit, testing and certification. Making good, plaster skimming and redecorating are quoted separately so you can decide how to handle the finishing.

What paperwork do I receive after the rewire is finished?+

You receive a full domestic electrical installation certificate documenting the test results for every newly installed circuit. This confirms that the installation complies with British electrical standards and serves as essential documentation for property sales or lettings.

Can extra sockets or lighting points be added during a rewire?+

Yes. A full rewire is the ideal time to add extra socket outlets, USB points, outdoor lighting or dedicated circuits for high-demand appliances. These requirements can be factored into the initial written quotation.

How long does a complete domestic rewire take to complete?+

The duration depends on the size of the house, construction style and accessibility of floor spaces. An average three-bedroom domestic property typically takes several days to run cables, wire accessories, test circuits and hand over the completed certificate.
