💬 Questions about rewiring in London

How do I know if I need a rewire?

Signs include old rubber or fabric cables, round-pin sockets, a very old fuse box, scorch marks or regular tripping. An electrician can check with an inspection.

Does a rewire need certification?

Yes. A rewire is notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations in England, so ask your electrician for the certificate when the work is finished and keep it.

Can I stay at home during a rewire in London?

Often, yes, but the power goes off in stages and there is dust and noise. Many people stay with friends for a few days. Ask the electrician about the plan.
