A lot of Leigh-on-Sea's charm comes from its period housing, the cottages and Victorian and Edwardian homes around the Old Town and Broadway and the solid 1930s houses towards Highlands and Belfairs. The downside is that many still have wiring and fuse boards that are well past their best. Old rubber or cloth-covered cables, an old-style fuse board or sockets that scorch or trip are all signs a rewire is due. A full rewire replaces the cables, sockets, switches and consumer unit throughout, bringing the home up to the current 18th Edition rules.
Working in older Leigh properties takes care, and that is exactly what we bring. We plan the work around you, keep the dust and disruption down and think about where every cable runs so the finished walls look right. Every circuit is tested and you get the electrical certificate to prove it, all NAPIT Approved and TrustMark registered, with a tidy finish we take real pride in.

We rewire cottages and Victorian and Edwardian houses regularly, working neatly and respectfully in older Leigh properties.
New consumer unit
A modern consumer unit with a safety switch on every circuit is fitted as part of the rewire.
Tidy finish
Cables hidden in the walls, neat socket positions and the plaster made good, ready for your decorator.
Your questions, answered
How long does a rewire take in a Leigh period home?
Most three-bed homes take about five to ten working days, though older properties with tricky access can take a little longer. We give you a clear timescale with your quote so there are no surprises.
Do I need a full rewire or just part of one?
Not every home needs a full rewire. We do a proper survey and give you an honest recommendation, quoting for a full rewire or just the circuits that genuinely need it.
Will you make good the walls afterwards?
Cables go into the walls, then the gaps are filled and made good, ready for your decorator. A tidy finish is something we take real pride in.
