We have a well established history of domestic rewiring in Coventry and the west midlands.
Does your house need rewiring? A house rewire is a major job, but if the wiring in your house is old or inadequate, a house rewire could be an urgent safety matter.
The first thing to check is the colour of the cables; If you find black coloured cables entering the consumer unit, this is an immediate sign that the wiring needs checking. Modern electrical cables are either grey or white and are insulated by a coating of PVC. The old black cables were insulated with rubber, which perishes and decays with age.
Black, rubber coated wires could be up to 40 years old. Over time deterioration allows the conductors inside the cable to meet. This will manifest itself as a blown fuse, but if you replace the fuse it will simply blow again. The only solution is to replace the wiring.
Other things to look out for include:
Modern houses place a much higher demand on the electrical system than in years past. You only have to look at the number of appliances which are now plugged in to the electrical supply. If you have antiquated wiring it is an accident waiting to happen.
Even if the safety issues are not enough to convince you, you will have to get your electrics updated before you sell your house. A basic inspection will reveal inadequate or defective electrics. No mortgage lender will lend money on a house that could burn down in the near future!
If you have concerns that your electrical system is either inadequate or too old, it is essential to get a qualified electrician to look at it.
Rewiring your house must be carried out by a trained and qualified electrician. They provide a certificate to the householder, and notify Building Control – they record the work and issue a Building Regulations Compliance Certificate.
