Full or Partial Rewires

---

Over time electrical installations inevitably degrade and it soon becomes essential that maintenance and a replacement be carried out.

The manufacturers lifetime expectancy of PVC cable is actually only twenty years! If you have concerns over the integrity of your installation, the first port of call is to carry out an Electrical Installation Condition Report to thoroughly assess the continued use of the installation and to highlight any problem areas.

Once complete our engineers can detail where remedial works are required – this may lead to either a partial or a complete re-wire being recommended. Often if parts of a property are considered not suitable for continued use it becomes financially viable and to avoid extensive disruption ideal to carry out a full replacement of the whole property ensuring no more work to be necessary for years to come.

The options when carrying out a re-wire are endless. From start to finish our engineers can recommend suitable additions or alterations that may be more relevant from the original installation. Particularly customers may wish to add sockets into bedrooms, heating thermostats in hallways, two-way lighting in kitchens, security lighting to the exterior or data and TV points to bedrooms and home offices – during a re-wire is your ideal time to carry out these additions.

We recommend that whilst works are carried out, the property is uninhabited, particularly if customers require all cabling to be sunk and chased into walls. It’s a dirty job and not a pleasant place to be at the end of the day. It’s worth noting that an uninhabited property will generally take less time to complete than the adverse and therefore reduce the cost of labour to our customers.
