What happens on the day
Rewiring involves distinct stages of physical work to strip out aged components, pull new cables and fit the final accessories cleanly.
- Layout surveyThe work begins with a walk-through to confirm switch heights, socket positions, lighting points and the exact cable pathways through floors and walls.
- First fix installationFloorboards are lifted and walls are chased to run new twin and earth cables throughout the building, along with mounting back boxes for all outlets and switches.
- Second fix accessoriesAfter plastering is completed, new faceplates, light fittings and the replacement consumer unit are connected to the newly installed cabling.
- Electrical testingEvery circuit undergoes electrical instrument testing to confirm correct polarity, insulation resistance and rapid disconnection under fault conditions.

WhatsAppHow long does a house rewire take to complete?
A complete rewire on an average three-bedroom home typically takes approximately one week to complete the physical first and second fix stages. Partial rewiring of a single room, kitchen or extension is completed more quickly. Timescales depend on accessibility, floor types and whether the building is occupied during the work.
Can you stay in the house while it is being rewired?
Living in the property is possible by working through rooms sequentially, but homeowners should anticipate dust, lifted floor coverings and regular daytime power interruptions. The work progresses much faster and with less disruption when the building is unoccupied during the chasing and cable pulling stages.
How do I know if my house needs rewiring?
Warning indicators include rubber or lead-sheathed cabling, an outdated fuse box with rewireable fuses, discoloured or warm socket plates, and recurring circuit breaker trips. If an electrical condition report identifies extensive deterioration or ungrounded circuits, a full rewire is the safest and most sensible option.
Does a house rewire include plastering and decorating?
Chasing walls to install conduits and back boxes creates channels that require plaster patching once cables are secured. Standard rewiring quotations cover the electrical cable installation, back boxes, accessories and consumer unit. Making good with plaster repairs and decorative finishes is arranged separately after electrical testing.
What certification is provided once the rewire is finished?
Upon completion, you receive an Electrical Installation Certificate confirming that all new circuits, protective devices and earthing arrangements meet current safety standards. The installation is also certified under domestic Building Regulations, providing paperwork essential for future property sales.
