Why re-wire your home?

If your home is more than 35 years old, or you're planning a renovation, it's worth checking if your electrical installation meets the latest regulations and if it doesn't, it's worth considering a full home re-wire. Outdated wiring can be inconvenient with too few sockets or in the wrong locations but it can also be dangerous. In this post, I’ll walk you through when a rewire might be needed, how the process works, what it costs, and how to know what’s right for your home.

Can You Rewire a Home in Stages?  

A full home rewire is quite a substantial job, and if you're living in the property at the same time then a home rewire can be quite intrusive. especially if you’re living in the property during the work. Because a house rewire is a big job it can also come with a big cost, many homeowners in Bath and West Wiltshire wonder if it’s possible to rewire a home in stages rather than all at once. The short answer is yes—it can be done, but there are important factors to consider.

When was the last time you thought about the wiring in your home?

If your property is over 30 years old or you’ve noticed flickering lights, RCD's tripping at random or some really old sockets still in use, it might be time to consider a full re-wire of your home. Modern living puts greater demand on electrical systems, with everything from smart devices to home offices and EV chargers relying on reliable power.

Why you should consider re-wiring when you buy your forever home

3 months ago By Haydon

Buying your forever home is an exciting step but have you thought about the condition of its wiring? Many older properties were wired using different techniques to today. Older homes quite often have multiple joint boxes under the floors which are susceptible to loose connections and other faults. These joint boxes are often impossible to locate and fix without lifting up flooring - quite the time consuming task!

A professional home re-wire will remove those weak-links that could cause issues in he future as all connections will be accessible.

Take Care When Selecting an Electrician!!

Many Electricians in Bath and West Wiltshire are simply not interested in small electrical works. They want the choice jobs, and will drop you like a hot potato when a bigger, supposedly more lucrative, project comes in.

Others advertise as electricians having no qualifications.  They thrive on the basis that you don’t understand what they do and, as a result, overcharge for shoddy, and often dangerous, work.

I set up Watt & Co. Electrical in order to fill a gap in the domestic sector. I want to provide you with a quality service that provides you with exactly what you need from an electrician.
