How do you know when it's time to call a House Rewire Electrician?
If a property has not already been rewired within the last 25-30 years, the chances are it will need upgrading at least in part in order to bring it up to current standards. The wiring may be potentially dangerous and may not be able to cope with the demands of modern living.
If you plan major remodelling work that constitutes a material alteration as defined by the Building Regulations, it is likely that you will need to rewire part, if not all, of the property, including upgrading the consumer unit (fuse box).
If you are extending your home, or converting an attic or garage, this will constitute new work and therefore all of the new wiring will have to conform to Part P: Electrical Safety, and all existing wiring will have to be improved to ensure that it is able to carry the additional loads safely, it is earthed to current requirements and that cross bonding is satisfactory.
Where you are extending or remodelling, the rest of the existing wiring does not have to be upgraded, except where upgrading is required by the energy efficiency requirements of the Building Regulations, i.e. central heating controls.

How Much Should You Budget For Your House Rewire?
House Electrical Rewiring Prices
Many UK homes have old electrical wiring and getting your home rewired is a great way of adding value and ensuring safe and reliable operation. Electrical rewiring costs will vary depending on some factors including:
The size of your house (naturally a three bedroom house will cost more than a one bedroom flat).
Whether the home is occupied during the rewiring (House Rewire Electricians Brighton will work faster in an empty property).
The specification of fittings and fixtures you choose (stainless steel versus white PVC sockets etc.).
The number of socket outlets etc. and other extras such as security lighting or outside power points.
Where you live in the UK because of regional variances in contractor costs across the country.
Below are guide prices for rewiring different home types and sizes including an average two-bed terraced house, three-bed semi-detached house, and an average four-bed detached house.
Two bed terraced house:
A total rewire of a two-bed terraced house including kitchen and bathroom should cost between £2,000 and £3,000 depending on where you live in the UK and the size of the business you hire. An average of £2,500 is a commonly quoted price with the job taking between 5 and eight days to complete. The price will typically include:
Renewing all the wiring from the electricity meter to the consumer unit.
Installing a new consumer unit.
Standard white finish electrical accessories such as socket outlets and switches.
Circuit testing and final installation certification.
The price excludes plastering and decorating which will be required to finish the job. Your electrician may be able to provide a quote for this type of work. The electrician will ensure the installation meets current standards.
Three-bed semi detached house:
A total electrical rewiring project for a 3-bed semi will involve removing old wiring and fittings and then running new cables and installing new fittings. The price includes supplying a new consumer unit and assumes the work will be in an empty house. The price includes the minor plastering work required to fill in the holes chased in the wall for the conduit. The homeowner is responsible for painting and decorating.
The price for rewiring will be between £3,000 and £4,000 depending on regional variances across the UK. You should expect the work to finish within 6 to 10 days.
Four-bed detached house:
The bigger the house, the longer it will take an electrician to rewire. An average detached house with four bedrooms will have about ten rooms in total, including two bathrooms. An electrician will need about 10 to 15 days to complete the rewire.
Expect to pay between £3,500 and £5,000 for the complete rewire of up to 10 rooms including replacing all the fixtures and wiring with new, and issue of a test certificate on completion.

You can look at home electrical wiring improvement as an insatiable obsession or as just a hobby. Home rewiring improvement work can add significant value to your home. It is important to make sure you have the skills and tools needed before starting a project. The tips in this article will help you avoid making errors and help you make wise choices.
Sometimes a small room can seem very gloomy, but it doesn't need to be that way. You can invite the light inside. Open blinds, tie back curtains and clean the glass thoroughly. Few things make a room appear larger and more spacious than strategic use of natural light. Keep your room clutter free and paint the walls with pale colours. Your small room suddenly won't seem so cramped anymore.
Use your creativity and develop a plan before beginning a home rewiring improvement project. Once you have started the project, you need to focus on finishing the job rather than deciding on the details. Use homes you love as inspiration, or take inspiration from your favourite home-improvement shows. Hire an electrician in Brighton.
It's a good idea to have a professional take a look at your existing floors before you commit yourself to the expensive proposition of installing all-new hardwood. You may already have wooden floors that are hidden by old carpet or vinyl flooring that are waiting to be uncovered and refurbished. You will come out on top with a nicer floor, and save money!
When you start an electrical rewiring project, ensure you know the scope of the work involved. Make written notes about the entire job, so that you have a good grasp of all the steps involved. A second opinion may help you avoid making any mistakes during your first assessment. You can reduce costs if you start a project with full knowledge of its scope.
