Everything below is what an honest, NAPIT-approved contractor will actually do for you, not what a marketing agency thinks sounds good on a website. What it covers A rewire replaces the fixed wiring in your property, circuits, consumer unit, accessories and often the incoming supply arrangements, bringing the installation up to the current 18th Edition of BS 7671. A full rewire covers the whole property; a partial rewire targets a specific area (usually upstairs, or the kitchen and downstairs sockets) where the existing wiring is beyond safe reuse. Who it's for Owners of pre-2000 properties with rubber, fabric-covered or original PVC wiring; buyers of properties where the EICR has come back Unsatisfactory; landlords being served C1 / C2 codes; anyone renovating and wanting to do the electrics once, properly, before the plasterer arrives. When you need it When your fuse board is rewireable-fuse or old-style dual-RCD; when sockets are round-pin, cracked or scorched; when the EICR flags C1 or multiple C2 codes; when you're extending or knocking through; when you're going to plaster anyway. Why professional matters Old wiring degrades, rubber insulation crumbles, fabric sheathing dries out, undersized cabling runs warm, and earthing arrangements that were fine in 1975 aren't compliant now. Rewiring during a renovation is a fraction of the cost and disruption of doing it after decoration. What Happens If You Leave It ## The cost of putting it off. Every one of these is something we see weekly. None of them get better on their own. ### Old cable insulation is a live fire risk Rubber-insulated cable from pre-1970s installations goes brittle and cracks. It's the biggest single cause of house fires of electrical origin in older UK housing stock. ### Failed EICR blocks lettings and mortgages A property with unresolved C1 / C2 codes can't legally be let and will be flagged by any mortgage-lender's survey. ### Piecemeal 'patches' cost more long term Adding new circuits onto a failing old installation buys you months, not years. The old wiring keeps failing behind you. ### Doing it after decoration doubles the price Rewiring a decorated, carpeted, occupied house involves lifting floors, chasing walls, and full redecoration afterwards. Do it before plaster and it's a fraction of the cost. Our Process ## How the job actually runs, start to finish. 1. Step 1 ### Free on-site survey We inspect the existing installation, discuss layout, socket and lighting positions with you, and agree a scope room-by-room. 2. Step 2 ### Fixed written quote Priced against the actual property, never off a spreadsheet. Includes making-good where in our scope, and clear on what isn't. 3. Step 3 ### First fix Old cable stripped out, new cabling chased into walls and run through floor voids, back boxes set, consumer unit position confirmed. Ready for plaster. 4. Step 4 ### Second fix Faceplates, light fittings, extractor fans, smoke alarms and consumer unit installed after plastering and decorating. 5. Step 5 ### Test, certify & hand over Full initial verification to BS 7671, Electrical Installation Certificate issued, and a walk-round with you before we leave. Benefits ## Why customers stick with us. ### Priced by the property, not the postcode Every rewire quote is site-specific. No 'from £X per point' pricing that always creeps up on invoice day. ### Cleaner chases, better make-good Proper chases, cable clips at the right centres, and dust-sheeted floors. You'll see the difference immediately. ### Modern RCBO consumer unit as standard Metal-clad, RCBO-per-circuit, so a fault on one circuit doesn't take out half the house. ### Interlinked smoke & heat alarms Mains-wired, interlinked, battery-backed alarms fitted as part of the rewire, meeting BS 5839-6. ### Certified and self-notified NAPIT self-certification, no separate council building control fees. ### Scheduled around your build We phase first-fix / second-fix around plastering, decoration and other trades so no one's waiting on us. In Detail ## Everything else worth knowing. The specific materials, methods and situations that make this job go well, or badly, depending on who's doing it. [Request A Free Estimate](/contact) ### Full rewire vs partial rewire A full rewire replaces every circuit and the consumer unit. A partial rewire replaces specific circuits, usually where the existing wiring is a known failure risk (e.g. rubber-insulated cable upstairs but modern PVC downstairs). We only recommend a partial where it's genuinely defensible; splitting old and new circuits at the same board is a compromise and we'll tell you the trade-offs. ### Materials, brands and standards Cable is BASEC-approved 6242Y twin-and-earth for lighting and sockets, 6491X singles in conduit / trunking where surface work is needed, and 6243Y for exposed installations. Accessories are MK, BG or Hager. Consumer units are metal-clad, RCBO-per-circuit to the latest amendment. Every termination is torque-checked with a calibrated screwdriver. ### Making good, chases and finish Chases are cut with the correct depth and centre lines so plasterers can fill without pushing through onto cable. First-fix cables are labelled at both ends. Consumer unit tails, meter tails and earthing arrangements are re-terminated to current standards, we don't reuse tired old tails just because they're still there. ### Landlord, listed & occupied properties For occupied rewires we phase the work so you're never fully without power, usually room-by-room or floor-by-floor. For listed and period properties we work with a lighter touch on chases, use conduit and trunking where discretion is needed, and coordinate directly with the conservation officer if one is involved.
