What happens on the day

Rewiring is carried out in structured stages to replace wiring thoroughly while keeping the property organised throughout the installation.

  • Survey and layout walk-throughAn initial assessment establishes the route for new cabling, confirms the exact locations for every socket, switch, and lighting outlet, and outlines the planned schedule of work.
  • First fix installationOld cables are disconnected, floorboards are raised, and channels are cut into plaster walls to run fresh twin-and-earth cables and install recessed metal back boxes.
  • Second fix and consumer unit connectionOnce wall repairs or plastering allow, faceplates, switches, ceiling roses, and downlights are connected, and all circuit runs are terminated into the new consumer unit.
  • Inspection, testing and sign-offEach newly installed circuit undergoes full testing to verify continuity, insulation resistance, and trip times before the supply is turned back on and documentation is prepared.

Frequently asked questions about rewiring

Still have a question?

Can I stay in the property while a rewire takes place?

It is possible to remain in the property while work proceeds room by room, but rewiring involves lifting floorboards, cutting into plaster, and turning off power supplies during working hours. Having the property empty speeds up the work and reduces daily disruption.

How long does a full house rewire take?

A standard house rewire typically takes around one week of on-site work for the cable runs, second fix fittings, and testing. Partial rewires or smaller single-floor installations take less time.

Does a house rewire require building regulations notification?

Yes. A complete or partial rewire is notifiable electrical work. TMB Electrics completes the required testing and issues an Electrical Installation Certificate, with building control notification handled as part of the process.

Can I replace the consumer unit instead of rewiring?

If testing reveals that existing cables, insulation resistance, and earthing paths are sound, replacing an old fuse board with a modern consumer unit may be sufficient. However, if the underlying cables are damaged or degrading, installing a new board without rewiring will not solve the safety issue.

What is the difference between first fix and second fix electrical work?

First fix involves the structural stage where cables are routed under floors, through ceiling voids, and chased into walls inside conduit, with back boxes installed. Second fix takes place after plastering, when switches, sockets, light fittings, and the consumer unit are connected and tested.
