Signs your home may need rewiring
Most homes built before the 1990s are due — or overdue — a rewire. Old wiring doesn’t just fail to meet modern standards, it can become a genuine safety risk. Here are the signs to look out for.
Old rubber or fabric-covered wiring
This type of wiring is well past its safe lifespan and a common finding in pre-1970s homes across Nottingham.
Fuses blowing or breakers tripping regularly
If your consumer unit is struggling to keep up with demand it's a clear sign the system needs attention.
Sockets that spark, smell or feel warm
These are warning signs that should never be ignored — call us today if you're experiencing this.
A failed or unsatisfactory EICR report
If your electrical inspection has come back with C1 or C2 codes, a rewire may be the recommended course of action.
Buying or renovating an older property
If you're moving into a home built before 1990 and there's no record of a previous rewire, it's worth getting one done.
How your rewire actually works
A rewire sounds daunting. Here’s exactly what to expect — no surprises, no stress.
01
Free survey & quote
We visit your property, assess the full scope of work and give you a fixed price. No obligation, no guesswork.
02
Plan & preparation
We agree a start date, discuss which rooms need protecting and plan the work to minimise disruption to your daily life.
03
First fix wiring
New cables are run throughout the property. We protect floors and furniture and work as tidily as possible throughout.
04
Second fix & consumer unit
Sockets, switches and light fittings are installed. Your new consumer unit is fitted and connected, bringing everything up to current standards.
05
Test, cert & sign-off
Full testing of the installation, your Electrical Installation Certificate issued same day and Building Regs notification submitted.
Full rewire or partial — we do both
Not every property needs a full rewire. We’ll assess what’s right for your home and only recommend what’s genuinely needed.

Partial Rewire
Where only certain areas or circuits need updating — typically when adding an extension, fitting a new kitchen or bathroom, or where specific circuits are failing or unsafe.

- Loft conversion wiring
- Uprating circuits to meet modern demand
- Replacing damaged or dangerous circuits
- Full test & certification of affected circuits

Rewiring FAQs
How much does a house rewire cost in Nottingham?
How long does a rewire take?
Most rewires take between 3 and 7 days depending on property size and complexity. A 2-bed house is typically 3–4 days. We’ll give you a clear timeline before we start.
Do I need to move out during a rewire?
Not necessarily. There will be periods without power and there’s unavoidable disruption — but many of our customers stay in the property throughout. We’ll plan the work to keep disruption to a minimum and always let you know when power needs to go off.
Will a rewire make a mess of my walls?
Some chasing into walls is usually needed to run cables and fit back boxes. We minimise this as much as possible and work neatly throughout. We can recommend a plasterer to make good after if needed.
What certification will I receive?
You’ll receive an Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) signed by a qualified electrician, plus a Building Regulations Completion Certificate. These are essential documents for selling your home or for insurance purposes.
My house was built in the 1970s — does it definitely need a rewire?
Not necessarily — it depends on the condition of the existing wiring. The best way to find out is an EICR (electrical inspection). If we find the wiring is still in safe condition we’ll tell you honestly. We won’t recommend a rewire if one isn’t needed.
