New wiring run through a property during a rewire by JD Electricals

What a rewire costs

A rewire is priced on the property, not a rate card: bedrooms, age, how many circuits, and whether making good is included. It usually is not, so we say so upfront.

  • Quotes are free and there is no call-out charge for arranging one.
  • The price is agreed before anything is booked.
  • Anything found once the job is open is quoted separately and agreed with you first.

Full, partial or kitchen

Most people do not need everything replaced.

Full rewire

Every circuit replaced. Usually where the wiring is original and the board has no protection worth keeping.

Partial rewire

Only what has aged. If the main circuits test sound, this is far cheaper and much less disruptive.

Kitchen rewire

New circuits for appliances, sockets, under-cabinet lighting and the cooker supply, timed around the fitter.

What is covered

A rewire is disruptive by nature, so it is worth being clear on where it stops.

Included

  • New cable, accessories and circuit protection for the agreed scope
  • A consumer unit that can carry the new circuits
  • Full testing and certification on completion
  • Routes planned around existing voids and floors to limit damage

Not included

  • Plastering, decorating and making good, unless agreed in writing
  • Kitchen or bathroom fitting, which is coordinated rather than carried out
  • Listed building consent, which is the owner's to obtain where it applies

What happens on the day

A full rewire runs over several days; a kitchen rewire is usually much shorter.

  1. 01

    Before

    We agree the scope room by room and confirm whether making good is included, so there is no argument later.

  2. 02

    During

    Work is staged so the house stays liveable where possible, with power restored at the end of each day.

  3. 03

    After

    Everything is tested, certified and labelled, and the certificate comes to you rather than needing chasing.

What you end up with

Wiring that will outlast the next owner, and paperwork that proves it.

Certified throughout
Full testing and certification for the work carried out, which matters at sale.
Capacity for later
Circuits sized for how houses are actually used now, including chargers and garden power.

Common questions

The things people ask before booking.

Do we have to move out?+

Usually not. Work is normally staged room by room so the house stays liveable, though a full rewire is genuinely disruptive while it runs.

Is making good included?+

Normally not, and we say so before you commit. Chases have to be filled and decorations touched up, and most people prefer to arrange that themselves.

Can you rewire a kitchen during a refit?+

Yes, and it is worth booking early. The electrics need to land after the old units come out and before the new ones go in.
