New electrical cabling run through a stripped-back wall during a rewire by TMB Electrics

House Rewiring in Banstead

TMB Electrics rewires houses and flats across Banstead and Surrey, full or partial, planned around the rooms and the way you use them, with a new consumer unit and full certification.

I keep things straightforward: you deal with me from the first quote to the final check, with clear advice and no surprises along the way.

When a house needs rewiring

  • Wiring does not last forever. Rubber or fabric cables, a fuse board with wire fuses, sockets that get warm and an EICR full of C2s all point the same way.
  • Homes wired before the 1970s, or on their original circuits, are the usual candidates. Many 1930s semis around Banstead and Sutton are on their second or third board but still the first wiring.
  • The cheapest time to rewire is when the walls and floors are open anyway.
  • When the report has more C2s than it is worth fixing one by one, a rewire is the honest answer.

What a rewire covers

A full rewire replaces every cable, socket, switch and the consumer unit.

Included when agreed

  • New cables to every socket, switch and light
  • New consumer unit with RCD protection
  • New sockets and switches in the positions you choose
  • Earthing and bonding brought up to standard
  • Full testing and an Electrical Installation Certificate, notified under Part P

Not included automatically

  • Plastering, decorating and floor repairs after the cables are in
  • Light fittings and appliances, unless agreed
  • Extra circuits added later, such as an EV charger or shower, which are priced separately

How a rewire is done

A full rewire takes about a week for a three bedroom house and works best with the house empty or the rooms cleared in turn.

  1. 01

    Survey and plan

    We walk the house and agree where every socket, switch and light goes.

  2. 02

    First fix

    Cables are run under floors and chased into walls. This is the messy part.

  3. 03

    Second fix and test

    Sockets, switches, lights and the new board go in, then every circuit is tested and certified.

House rewiring price

A rewire is priced per property after a look at the existing wiring, the number of rooms and what you want where.

  • The price includes a new consumer unit and the electrical certificate.
  • Making good plaster and decoration afterwards is not included.

House rewiring questions

What homeowners ask before a rewire.

How much does it cost to rewire a house?+

From £1,800, depending on the size of the house and the number of sockets and lights required. TMB Electrics quotes after assessing the property.

Trevor Bush

How long does a rewire take?+

Around a week for a typical three bedroom house. A partial rewire is quicker.

Trevor Bush

Can I live in the house during a rewire?+

You can, room by room, but it is dusty and the power is off for periods. Empty is easier for everyone.

Does a rewire need Building Regulations approval?+

Yes. A rewire is notifiable, and TMB Electrics certifies and notifies the work under Part P.

Do I have to rewire, or can I just replace the fuse board?+

If the cables test fine, a new board is often enough. If they do not, a new board on bad wiring is money wasted. Testing first tells us which.
