EXPERT ELECTRICAL REWIRES FOR YOUR PROPERTY
Are you unsure how old the wiring in your home is? It may be time for a professional inspection and test. A rewire can involve replacing part or all of a property’s electrical system. Wiring over 30 years old may have deteriorating insulation, which can pose a fire risk, endanger occupants, or damage electrical equipment.
Our team of experienced electricians specialises in rewiring homes and commercial properties. To learn more about the rewire process and how we can help, simply complete our contact form and one of our experts will get back to you.
WHAT’S INVOLVED IN A REWIRING SERVICE?
The first step is a full inspection and testing of your property’s electrical system by a qualified engineer. Our team will advise on which wiring needs replacing to ensure your installation is as safe and reliable as possible.
Once the plan is agreed, our electricians will carry out the rewire efficiently and professionally. For safety reasons, you may need to vacate the property during the work, with most rewires typically completed within two weeks. You can trust our team to deliver a secure, high-quality electrical system for your home or business.
SIGNS YOU MAY NEED A REWIRE
You might need a house rewire if you notice any of the following:
Ageing wiring – Electrical systems that haven’t been updated for many years could pose safety risks.
Home refurbishment – If you’re renovating, it’s often the right time to update old wiring.
EICR recommendation – A recent inspection may indicate that a rewire is necessary.
Insufficient sockets or lighting – Moving into a new property or needing more power points can be addressed with a rewire.
Partial rewire required – Sometimes only specific areas need updating, which we can complete efficiently. After a survey, we’ll advise whether you need to vacate your home during the work.
THE DANGERS OF NEGLECTING A REWIRE
Neglecting a rewire when your property needs one can put everyone in the home at risk. Old or faulty wiring may cause electrical fires, electric shocks, or other serious injuries. Over time, insulation can deteriorate, connections may become loose, and outdated systems may struggle to cope with modern electrical demands.
Failing to update your wiring not only endangers occupants but can also lead to costly damage to appliances and property. Regular inspections and timely rewires help ensure your electrics are safe, reliable, and fully compliant with UK safety standards, giving you peace of mind for years to come.

A house rewire is the process of replacing the electrical wiring and consumer unit in a property. It’s needed when the existing wiring is old, unsafe, or not compliant with current UK standards (BS 7671).
2. What are the signs my home needs a rewire?
Common signs include:
● Frequent tripping of the consumer unit
● Flickering lights or tripping circuits
● Sockets that feel warm or spark
● Old wiring like cloth-insulated cables
● No RCD protection or outdated fuse board
● Home has undergone extensions or major renovations
If you notice these issues in Bromley or Kent, Wayre House can carry

3. How long does a full house rewire take?
A full house rewire typically takes around 2 weeks, depending on the size of the property and the level of work required. Wayre House provides a clear timeline after an initial survey and will work to minimise disruption to your home.
4. Will my home need to be empty during a rewire?
Not always, but it depends on the scale of the work. A full rewire may require you to temporarily vacate certain rooms or even the property for safety reasons. Wayre House will discuss the best plan for your home and help you arrange access and safety measures.
5. Will I need a new consumer unit when rewiring my house?
Yes — most rewires include a new consumer unit with modern safety features like RCD protection. This ensures your electrical system meets current regulations and improves safety across the property.
