What happens on the day
Rewiring is an intensive task that requires careful organisation to keep disruption manageable. The process follows a structured sequence from the initial walkthrough to final switch plate installation.
- Initial survey and circuit planningA thorough walkthrough maps out every proposed socket, light fitting, cooker switch and consumer unit location. Room by room, positions are confirmed so that cable paths and back boxes align with your room layout plans.
- First fix cable installationFloorboards are lifted and walls are chased to embed new cabling and metal back boxes. This stage carries the bulk of structural disruption, bringing heavy-gauge cooker circuits and sub-mains cleanly throughout the building framework.
- Second fix fitting of faceplatesOnce wall surfaces are made good, switches, socket outlets, consumer units and lighting pendants are wired into position. Every accessory is squared, screwed firmly into place and prepared for final electrical testing.
- Testing and system commissioningIndividual circuits undergo testing for continuity, insulation resistance and correct polarity. The modern consumer unit with RCD protection is fully energised and verified before final handover paperwork is completed.

WhatsAppCan I stay in the house while it is being rewired?
It is possible to remain in the property if work is phased room by room, but it requires flexibility. Rewiring generates plaster dust, lifted floorboards and periods where power must be switched off for safety. An empty house allows the quickest and most efficient progress.
How long does a complete house rewire take?
A standard three-bedroom house generally takes around one week to rewire from first fix cable routing through to second fix accessory installation and testing. Larger properties or homes with solid concrete floors take longer to complete.
Does rewiring include making good the plasterwork?
Rewiring quotations cover the installation of metal back boxes, cable conduits and all electrical gear. Making good the wall chases with fresh plaster, filling and final decorating is outside electrical work and remains the customer's responsibility.
Do I need to rewire if I only want a new fuse board?
If an initial electrical inspection confirms your existing cables are in good physical condition and meet insulation resistance standards, a consumer unit replacement may be sufficient. However, if the underlying cabling has degraded, fitting a new board alone is not an effective solution.
Is building regulations approval required for a rewire?
Yes. A full or partial house rewire is notifiable work under Part P of the Building Regulations. Once testing is complete, an Electrical Installation Certificate is issued and the work is notified so that your local authority records are updated.
