2-Day House Rewire Specialists - 2500+ Home Rewires Completed So Far

What to Expect During Your House Rewire

We know a full house rewire is always disruptive. If you’ve just bought the property, it’s advisable to carry out the rewire before moving in.

That’s why our team works to a clear 2-day process, keeping the job organised from the first visit through to final clean-up.

  • We move furniture where needed
  • We lift and replace carpets where required
  • We provide temporary power for essentials where possible
  • We tidy as we go and complete a thorough final clean-up

A Clear, Simple Process — From Start to Finish

Rewiring your home is a major job, but it does not need to feel chaotic. Our 5-man rewire team follows a clear process to complete all full house rewires in 2 days, while keeping you informed at every stage.

Initial Conversation

We start by understanding your property, your needs, and any timescales you’re working to.

  • Submit the form or give us a call
  • Arrange a visit
  • Provide a clear, fixed-price quote

No vague estimates. No hidden extras.

Preparation & First Fix

On the first day, we prepare your home and begin the core rewiring work.

  • Protect floors and furniture
  • Lift carpets where needed
  • Chase walls and run new cabling
  • Begin installing new wiring throughout the property

We work efficiently and keep disruption as controlled as possible.

Second Fix & Completion

On day two, we complete the visible parts of the rewire and bring everything together.

  • Install sockets, switches and fittings
  • Connect circuits to the new consumer unit
  • Fit lights and accessories
  • Complete final checks

By the end of the day, your home is fully rewired and ready to use.

Clean-Up & Final Walkthrough

We don’t just finish the job — we leave your home ready for the next step.

  • All debris is removed
  • Rooms are cleaned
  • Floors and furniture are put back
  • We walk you through everything

We then test, certify, and register the work with your local council.

What Happens After the Rewire?

A full rewire involves chasing into walls so new cables can be fitted safely. Plastering is not included in the quotation, and we strongly recommend using a skilled plasterer to make good any channels before decorating.

We clean up thoroughly once the electrical work is complete, remove rubble created during the process, and leave the property ready for the next stage.

House Rewire FAQs

Got questions about pricing, timelines, or what’s involved? Here are the answers most homeowners ask before getting a quote.

Yes—The fact that we have an experienced, specialist 5-man rewire team means that we are able to comfortably and safely complete all 3 and 4 bedroom houses in 2 days. General electricians are unable to achieve this timescale.

Full rewiring involves changing the fuse board (also known as a Consumer Unit) and replacing all of the wiring, sockets, switches, lights, etc.

If you are having to use extension leads or have flickering lights or tripping circuits, or your home hasn’t been rewired in 30/40+ years, it’s worth getting it checked. We’ll always give honest advice on whether a full or partial rewire is needed.

We usually recommend staying elsewhere for one night due to the disruptive nature of the ongoing rewiring work. However, we understand that this is not always possible due to personal circumstances and if this is the case we can make arrangements for you to stay.

There won’t be full power during the rewire, but we can provide temporary solutions for essentials like fridge freezers where needed.

Yes, a house rewire involves lifting floorboards in different rooms at the same time, cutting ‘chases’ into plasterwork and then fixing the new cables to the brickwork. We guarantee completion of your house rewire in 2 days which minimises the period of disruption. We work cleanly, protect your home, and tidy up as we go and bag-up and take away all rubble created in the process.

Yes. Plastering is not included in the quotation. We prefer to leave this to a skilled plasterer as they will ensure a seamless finish to any holes and channels prior to decoration. An electrician will not be able to achieve this level of finish, and few things look more unsightly than shrinkage cracks or being able to see the outlines of the rewiring channels after decorating.

Yes — we handle this as part of the job. We move furniture as necessary while the rewire progresses. We lift carpets where needed, and put everything back once the work is complete.We ask that any ornaments etc which are of sentimental or monetary value are taken off shelves, mantelpieces and sideboards and put in the garage or in drawers or cupboards to rule out the potential for damage.

Yes. We clean up after ourselves as we go along and after the rewiring is complete. We take pride in carrying out a very thorough final clean up. A lot of customers compliment us on this as you will see in our Testimonials/Reviews

The cost of a house rewire varies according to the level of specification and the exact cost will depend on how many sockets, lights and general level of specification you require. This would be assessed during our visit to your property. For more information visit our costs & pricing page.
