What happens on the day
Rewiring a domestic property follows a clear sequence from the initial arrival and isolation through to physical cabling, connecting accessories, and instrument testing.
- Arrival and electrical isolationThe visit begins by safely switching off the mains incoming supply and verifying dead circuits. This creates a secure working environment before work begins on removing or bypassing older cables.
- Installing new circuit pathsFresh cables are pulled through joists and structural pathways to supply every room. Sockets, lighting points, cooker supplies, and immersion feeds are systematically wired back to the main consumer unit.
- Accessory fitting and board connectionFaceplates, pendants, and switches are wired in place across each room, while cables entering the consumer unit are dressed, labelled, and connected into their designated circuit breakers.
- Dead and live testingEvery single circuit is checked with dedicated test instruments to confirm continuity, insulation resistance, and correct polarity before power is permanently restored to the home.

“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.”

WhatsAppWhat is included in a full domestic rewire?
A full domestic rewire includes stripping out old circuits, installing new cabling to all lighting points and power sockets, fitting a new consumer unit, complete instrument testing, and issuing the electrical certificate.
What affects the price of a house rewire?
The price is primarily influenced by the size of the house, the number of electrical circuits needed, and the overall quantity of sockets, switches, and fixtures being installed. Plastering and making good are priced separately.
Are walls and plaster repaired after rewiring?
Running new cabling requires cutting channels into plasterwork and lifting floorboards. The electrical price covers all electrical installation, while plastering, filling, and redecorating are quoted on their own.
What electrical certificate do I receive upon completion?
Once all circuits have been connected and tested with calibrated equipment, you are provided with the official electrical installation certificate verifying that the new wiring meets current domestic standards.
Can I rewire just one room instead of the entire house?
Yes, single areas such as a kitchen can be rewired on their own. However, a partial rewire leaves the remaining rooms connected to the existing older cables, whereas a full rewire updates the entire property.
