What's involved

Southampton has a lot of pre-1960s housing still running on rubber- or lead-sheathed cable. Once that insulation goes brittle it's a genuine fire risk, and it can't be patched - it needs replacing.

Partial rewires suit homes where the kitchen and bathroom circuits were updated but the lighting and upstairs sockets weren't. We test first so you only pay to replace what actually needs it.

Included as standard

  • Written schedule of socket, switch and light positions before we start
  • New cabling, back boxes, accessories and consumer unit
  • Careful lifting of floorboards and minimal chasing where possible
  • Smoke and heat alarms brought up to current standards
  • Full test certification on completion

Common questions

Can I stay in the house during a rewire?

Usually yes. We work zone by zone and keep at least power and lighting available where you need it each evening.

How long does a rewire take?

A three-bed house is typically five to eight working days depending on access and whether plastering follows.
