Why rewire an older home?

Old cable wasn’t built for today’s kettles, showers, and gadgets. A rewire brings wiring up to date and easier to look after.

Slightly more detail (safety, fuse box, rules)

We replace tired cable and fit a layout a competent electrician can test, certify, and maintain to current BS 7671 rules. A new fuse box (consumer unit) with the right protection goes with good cabling and earthing. Longer read: When to rewire (Knowledge Hub) and Rewire — advanced (detailed).

About the price tools

The totals are a rough guide so you can plan — not a firm quote. We price properly after we’ve seen the property. Full rewire service →

Rewire pricing calculators

Use Detailed to count rooms, or the quick rough estimate if you prefer.

Vacant, occupied, and per-room ideas (assumptions)

Occupied adds a guide £1,000 to cover working around your home. Vacant skips that. What each room type adds, board choices, and limits of the online total →

Starting budget — survey for a written figure.

Guide only — start a conversation, not a fixed cap. Real rewire pricing needs a survey and visit. What the tools assume (advanced) →

Indicative domestic pricing for planning — not a fixed quotation. The “occupied” guide allowance reflects extra time to coordinate access, protect furnishings, and sequence work kindly around your household or tenants. Commercial and mixed-use projects are priced after survey.

Ready to plan your upgrade?

Send your postcode, photos of your existing consumer unit if possible, and any surveyor or EICR notes. We will suggest the proportionate route: full rewire, partial upgrade, or staged work.
