What Steps Are Involved In A Complete Home Rewire?

A complete home rewiring is a comprehensive electrical upgrade for your home.  When one of our domestic electricians carries out a complete rewire, it typically involves replacing your electrical system's existing electrical wiring, outlets, switches, and other components with new, up-to-date components. This can improve the safety and efficiency of your electrical system and prepare it for the demands of modern living. Initially, one of our professional domestic electricians will assess your home's electrical system and recommend the best action to meet your needs. They will also provide a detailed estimate of the cost and time required to complete the work.

Once the work has been approved, the electrician will remove the old electrical components. One of our domestic electricians based in London will then install new electrical cables, outlets, switches, and other parts following the latest electrical codes and standards. This will ensure that your electrical system is safe, efficient, and able to meet your needs for years to come. During a complete rewire, our domestic electrician will install new electrical components which may also involve the installation of new lighting and energy-saving solutions. This can help to improve the efficiency of your home and reduce your monthly electrical bills.

A complete home rewiring is not a discreet job and is something which can be very disruptive. Our domestic electricians aim to minimise disruption by seeking to complete the work within a few days; however, this may vary depending on the size of your London home. However, the benefits of complete home rewiring are numerous and can include improved safety, increased efficiency, and enhanced comfort.

At UK Essential Tradespeople Services, our electricians are experts in complete home rewiring with years of experience working in the local community. Don't hesitate to schedule a consultation and learn how we can help with your home rewiring project today.

Why Is It Recommended For A Homeowner To Get A EICR & Why Is I Legally Required For Landlords?

As mentioned on the homepage, an Electrical Installation Condition Report is a safety inspection which needs to be carried out by a certified electrician. The report is a detailed examination of the electrical installations within a property to find out what state the electrics are currently in. When one of our electricians performs an EICR, they will initially carry out a visual inspection followed by a series of tests to evaluate the safety and performance of the electrical system. During an EICR, the domestic electrician will check for any faults or defects in the electrical system. If any flaws are found, they will be recorded and assigned a fault code. These codes are used to categorise the severity of the fault and determine the appropriate course of action. Some common fault codes include:

  • C1 - Dangerous Condition: This is the most severe fault code and indicates that there is a risk of injury or death. A C1 fault requires immediate attention and corrective action must be taken as soon as possible. Examples of C1 faults include live parts that are exposed, inadequate earthing, and damaged or frayed electrical cables.
  • C2 - Potentially Dangerous Condition: This fault code indicates a potential risk of injury or death. A C2 fault requires urgent attention, and corrective action should be taken as soon as possible.
  • C3: Improvement Recommended: This code indicates a minor fault that requires attention but does not pose a significant risk.

On completion of an EICR, one of our domestic electricians produces a detailed report which highlights the key finding of the inspection and provides recommendations if repairs are needed. It's important to understand that all faults found during an EICR should be taken seriously, regardless of their severity. Having an EICR carried out regularly can help identify potential problems before they become more serious. The importance of this inspection cannot be understated and can be vital in identifying life-threatening electrical faults such as electrical fires.

Having one of our domestic electricians carry out carried out regular EICR is vital for ensuring the safety and performance of your electrical system. It can also help identify potential problems before they become more serious, reducing the risk of injury or death and avoiding costly repairs. At UK Essential Tradespeople Services, our domestic electricians are EICR and fault code analysis experts.

When Would You Typically Need Our Emergency Electrician Services?

An emergency electrician is a tradesperson available to attend to urgent electrical issues outside of regular working hours. There are many scenarios where an emergency electrician may be required, including:

  • Electrical Fires: If there is a fire in your home or business that is caused by ongoing electrical issues, one of our emergency electricians can help assess the damage, repair any faults, and restore power safely.
  • Flooding: If your home or business has recently been affected by flooding, an emergency electrician can assess the damage to your electrical system and repair any fault the water may have caused.

Having access to an emergency electrician can provide peace of mind in the event of an electrical emergency. At UK Essential Tradespeople Services, we understand the importance of having access to an electrician available twenty-four seven, three hundred and sixty-five days a year.
