When Is House Rewiring Needed?

Generally, a house rewire is required when wiring is either dangerous and/or outdated.

Over time, like any other household system, wiring is subject to wear and tear. This can lead to exposed wires, rusting connections or other kinds of deterioration like damage from pests.

In addition, electrical systems installed during the 50s, 60s and 70s just don’t have the capacity to cope with modern lifestyles.

This means a rewire is needed to upgrade the property so that its occupants can use modern fixtures and all their gadgets easily and safely.

Signs that you may have dangerous electrics

  • Sparks, strange smells of burning or blackened areas around electrical fixtures.
  • Circuits that work intermittently.
  • Flickering lights.
  • Over-reliance on extension cables.
  • Frequent power cuts due to circuit overload.

You may also have requested an electrical survey, the results of which indicate that a total rewire is recommended.

What Is The Process For House Rewiring?

In the first instance, we would provide information on why a rewire is our recommended course of action as part of our quoting process.

If you’re happy to go ahead with the upgrade, we would arrange a suitable date to start the work to get your home upgrade complete.

Most properties can be rewired in a couple of days. The work involves removing the old wires and installing all new ones.

This is quite a disruptive process, which can make quite a bit of a mess and involves the power being off for the duration of the work.

Whilst you can stay in the property during the work, we usually recommend occupants stay elsewhere for the time it takes to complete the work for your convenience.

We always clean up after ourselves, leaving your property ready for you to move back in when we’ve finished. We also aim to work promptly and efficiently to ensure that your home is wired again as soon as possible.

What Are The Benefits Of House Rewiring?

In addition to the peace of mind that comes with knowing your home is safe, rewiring also improves the performance of your electrical circuits. It could also increase the value of your property.

Can I Stay In The Property Whilst It’s Being Rewired?

You can, but it’s not recommended. Rewiring is a messy, noisy job. It also requires the power to be switched off. Rewiring normally takes a couple of days, so we suggest you stay elsewhere for the duration of the work for a smooth transition.

How Do I Know An Electrician Is Licensed To Carry Out A Rewire?

The details of licensed electricians are held on a government database that you can check. We highly recommend that you always check the qualifications of any electrical trade you hire. All of our electricians are high trained and insured for your peace of mind.

Will My House Be Insured If It Needs A Rewire?

If your property sustains damage due to an electrical fire or other electrical failure and you knew that a rewire was required, your policy may not be valid.
