Who needs a house rewire

A house rewire is for a home where the wiring throughout needs replacing, not one circuit or the kitchen on its own.

  • The whole house still on old circuitsYou want every room on new wiring rather than adding sockets and lights to the old cables.
  • A house you are renovatingYou are changing the layout and the existing circuits will not reach the new rooms and fittings.
  • A rental property that needs new wiringYou let the house and the installation needs replacing so tenants have new circuits and the certificate.
  • A kitchen rewire is not enoughNew kitchen circuits still leave the rest of the house on the old wiring, which a full house rewire replaces.

What happens on the day

On the day of a house rewire the electrician isolates the power, installs the new wiring, then tests and certifies the new circuits.

  • ArrivalThe electrician arrives and isolates the power so the old circuits in the defined area can come out.
  • Installing the new wiringNew cables are run through the house to the fittings and the consumer unit, which is the fuse board.
  • Testing and the certificateEvery new circuit is tested and you are left with the electrical certificate for the rewire.

“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.”
