FAQs

How much does a complete house rewire cost?

The cost of a complete house rewire varies depending on property size, complexity, and access requirements. We provide detailed, no-obligation quotes after assessing your property and understanding your specific needs. Our pricing includes all materials, labour, testing, and certification. We work efficiently to minimise disruption and provide transparent pricing across Sheffield and South Yorkshire.

When should I upgrade my consumer unit?

Consumer units should be upgraded if they're over 15 years old, lack RCD protection, or show signs of wear. Modern consumer units provide enhanced safety features including individual circuit protection and improved fault detection. We recommend upgrading if you're experiencing frequent trips, adding new circuits, or as part of a wider electrical upgrade. All new consumer units come with full testing and certification.

Do I need planning permission for electrical work?

Most domestic electrical work doesn't require planning permission, but it must comply with Building Regulations. We handle all necessary notifications and provide the required electrical certificates. For external installations or significant alterations, we'll advise if any permissions are needed. All our work meets current wiring regulations and safety standards.

How long does electrical installation work take?

Installation timeframes depend on the scope of work. Simple additions like extra sockets can be completed in a day, while complete rewires typically take several days to a week. We provide realistic timeframes during our initial consultation and work efficiently to minimise disruption to your home. All installations include thorough testing and certification before completion.
