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.
- Older housesHomes 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.
- Before a renovationThe cheapest time to rewire is when the walls and floors are open anyway.
- After a bad EICRWhen the report has more C2s than it is worth fixing one by one, a rewire is the honest answer.
- Partial rewiresA kitchen, an extension or a single floor can be rewired on its own when the rest is sound.
What happens on the day
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.
- Survey and planWe walk the house and agree where every socket, switch and light goes.
- First fixCables are run under floors and chased into walls. This is the messy part.
- Second fix and testSockets, switches, lights and the new board go in, then every circuit is tested and certified.

WhatsAppHow 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.
How long does a rewire take?
Around a week for a typical three bedroom house. A partial rewire is quicker.
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.
