Basic information you need to know to prepare for house rewiring
If you're looking to prepare for house rewiring, make sure it is done before electricians arrive at your home. You can make things much easier for us by lifting the carpets, ensuring the furniture is clear etc.
Yes, it is required to letting your neighbours know you are getting rewired, it can be a fairly noisy work when you rewire an old house. Also ideally you would let them know before you prepare for house rewiring. It just makes everyone aware and okay with the situations.
Most of our house rewiring or flat rewiring projects take 1-2 days.
The electrician who will do the old house rewire will help move any heavy items, but we insist on all small loose items being stored away either in boxes, or in areas we won’t be working and then we will dust sheet up every room if this was requested when the Rewiring Survey was done.
Positioning - We require all items to be moved away before the full house rewiring will start from the walls allowing approximately 1 meter space perimeter around the room. It’s also worth noting we require access up to the light fittings, and should be able to get steps ladders underneath the light to work.
Yes, the electricians will need to work in the loft. If you need help to prepare for house rewiring, make sure you select the options in the quote request.

Top flats are easiest, bottom flats more difficult but middle flats are the most difficult type of rewire. This is because there is no easy access above or below.
The main factors that influence the final house rewiring price are the following
Price also depends on the type and size of the house (detached, semi-detached, terraced) or flat. A bigger property can add up to 25 circuits and an extra consumer unit installation that costs approx. £570+VAT.
