When a full rewire makes sense
Most houses in east Kent that still have rubber or fabric-sheathed wiring are due a full rewire. So are properties with round-pin sockets, or where an EICR flags multiple C1 or C2 faults across circuits. A full rewire resets the clock — every cable, every socket and the consumer unit are new and certified.
When a partial rewire is enough
Sometimes only the ground-floor ring needs renewal, or the lighting circuits in a loft conversion, or the kitchen after a refit. Partial rewires keep disruption down and cost down too. We test what you have, tell you what genuinely needs doing, and do not upsell work that is not needed.
What a rewire includes
- Strip-out of old cables and fittings
- New ring finals, radial lighting, dedicated cooker, shower and immersion circuits as needed
- Brushed or white sockets (your choice), including USB-C where you want them
- New metal-clad consumer unit with RCBOs per circuit
- Smoke and heat alarms wired in and interlinked
- Full installation certificate, Part P notification, and a circuit chart
Living through it
We work room by room and isolate circuits so the essentials keep running. Dust sheets and vacuum afterwards, every day. Chases are cut neatly, filled flush, and left ready for a skim or touch-up.
