  • Rewiring Your Home

Rewiring is one of the most difficult maintenance tasks a homeowner can face. It is a major project with works carried out in every room. Your home’s electrical system is powered by cables usually buried in the walls.

It’s recommended that these cables are replaced every 25 years. The cables provide the power to your socket outlets, your lights and all other electrical items in your home, such as your cooker and boiler. Sub-standard and and wrongly installed electrics can result in fires, and electric shocks.

Older cables can deteriorate, cables that in the past were thought to be safe, have since been proven to be unsafe and hazardous.

We rewire your home to eliminate any potential problems and ensure everything is modern, safe and certificated.

Reasons

When Does A House Need Rewiring?

  1. Electric keeps tripping out regularly – this relates to your consumer unit and could be a sign that your house needs to be rewired. 
  2. Cracking or buzzing noise around your electrical components – this is a clear sign that there is a problem with your wiring.
  3. Outdated consumer unit and fittings – your consumer unit is made of wood, has cast iron switches, outdated or cracked plug sockets, black cabling/old cable colours, no labelling or has no RCD (residual current device) which is a critical lifesaving device to prevent serious injury or in the worse case scenario, a fatal electric shocks.
  4. Your house has not been rewired within 25 years – things move quickly and the same applies to your electrical wiring. If your property has not been rewired within the last 25-30 years then we recommend contacting a qualified electrician as soon as possible.
