Home Rewiring Available Across Chatham

Taking on a Chatham property that has not had any electrical work done in twenty or thirty years means living with wiring designed for very different demands. Fewer sockets, no RCD protection, and cable that has deteriorated over time all contribute to a system worth replacing rather than extending.

Our approved electricians carry out rewires across Chatham for homes of all sizes, typically phasing the work to keep disruption manageable. We will plan the new circuit layout to meet your needs, route cables efficiently, and fit a modern consumer unit as part of the project. All work comes with full NICEIC certification. We serve Chatham and the wider Kent area.

    Why choose us

    Why Choose Us for Rewiring in Chatham

    • NICEIC Registered Throughout

      All rewiring is carried out by NICEIC registered electricians and certified on completion, giving you a valid compliance document for insurance and future sale.

    • Planned to Minimise Disruption

      We phase the work carefully and communicate clearly so you know what to expect each day. We keep as much power available as possible throughout.

    • Full Circuit Layout Designed

      A new circuit layout is designed to suit how you use your home today, not how it was originally wired decades ago.

    • Making Good Included

      We fill and prepare surfaces after chasing, leaving them ready for decoration. We do not leave exposed channels or holes for you to deal with.

    • Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarms

      We include correctly positioned mains-wired smoke alarms and, where appropriate, carbon monoxide detectors as part of a full rewire.

    • Consumer Unit Replaced

      A full rewire includes a new consumer unit with RCD protection as standard, meaning the whole electrical installation is brought up to current standards.

    Common questions

    Rewiring in Chatham FAQs

    • How do I know if my Chatham home needs rewiring?

      Common signs that a Chatham property may need rewiring include rubber or fabric-insulated cables visible in the loft or at the consumer unit (indicating wiring from the 1960s or earlier), round-pin sockets, a fuse board with ceramic rewirable fuses rather than modern circuit breakers, persistent circuit trips, and scorch marks around sockets or switches. An EICR inspection will confirm the condition of the wiring properly.

    • How long does a full rewire take in Chatham?

      The duration of a full rewire in Chatham depends on the size of the property. A typical two or three bedroom house takes between three and five days. Larger properties or those with complex layouts can take longer. We work in phases where possible to keep some power available in the property during the work.

    • Do I need to move out during a rewire in Chatham?

      This depends on the scope of the work and your personal preference. For a full rewire, there will be periods with no power to certain circuits, dust from chasing cables into walls, and areas of the house that are not accessible while work is in progress. Many homeowners in Chatham choose to remain in the property with some inconvenience; others prefer to arrange alternative accommodation for the duration. We will advise on what to expect before work starts.

    • Will a rewire damage my walls and decoration in Chatham?

      Rewiring inevitably involves some disruption to walls and ceilings as cables need to be chased in or routed through them. We work as cleanly and carefully as the job allows, and we will fill and make good where we have chased. For full redecoration of the affected surfaces, most homeowners in Chatham arrange a plasterer and decorator after the electrical work is complete.

    • Is rewiring a home in Chatham covered by any certification?

      Yes, all rewiring work carried out in Chatham is certified on completion. They issue an Electrical Installation Certificate that covers the new installation, and as NICEIC registered contractors, they self-certify the work under Part P of the Building Regulations. You do not need to separately notify the local authority building control.
