About Consumer units

Your consumer unit is the heart of your home’s electrics. Older units often lack RCD protection, which is the device that cuts the power in a fraction of a second if someone touches a live part.

What’s included

  • Testing of your existing circuits before we start

  • A metal-clad consumer unit with a surge protection device

  • RCBO protection for each circuit

  • Clear labelling and a printed circuit schedule

  • An Electrical Installation Certificate and Building Control notification

Why upgrade?

Insurers, mortgage lenders and buyers’ surveyors increasingly flag old fuse boxes. An upgrade usually takes a single day, and we’ll keep the power off for as little time as possible.

How it works

Four steps, with a fixed price agreed before anything starts.

  1. 01

    Call or send photos

    Tell us what you need. Photos often let us price without a visit.

  2. 02

    Fixed written quote

    Usually within 24 hours of a survey.

  3. 03

    Work done, site left tidy

    Dust sheets down and power off for as short a time as possible.

  4. 04

    Tested and certified

    Your certificate is emailed and notifiable work is registered.

Questions about this service

Do you give fixed prices?
Yes. After a short survey, or a few photos for smaller jobs, we send a written fixed price. If we find something unexpected, we stop and agree any change with you before carrying on.
Are you registered and insured?
Yes. We are registered with a government-approved competent person scheme (Reg. no. 000000), so we can self-certify notifiable work, and we carry £5 million public liability insurance.
How soon can you start?
Small jobs are usually booked within a week. Rewires and larger projects are normally scheduled two to four weeks ahead.
Will I get a certificate?
Yes. Every job is tested to BS 7671 and you receive an Electrical Installation Certificate or Minor Works Certificate. Notifiable work is registered with Building Control for you.
Do I need to move out during a rewire?
Usually not. We plan the work room by room so you keep a working kitchen and bathroom, and we make the house safe at the end of every day.
