Rewires

Rewires

All types of dwellings can be rewired. Once rewired, an installation should last in excess of 40 years if properly maintained and kept up to date with future regulation changes. 

The cost of rewiring varies from house to house. Prices for full re-wiring of smaller properties start from around £1800.00

We take great care to minimise disturbance to the building fabric and decoration and ensure that disruption and inconvenience is kept to a minimum. 

Lomax Electrical ensure that every aspect of rewiring or installation is covered so there are no nasty surprises or incomplete work. We make clear in our specification exactly what is included and supply and install everything needed to get the final result to meet your satisfaction. If the job involves an area beyond our remit  we say so from the outset and advise accordingly.  We pick up and complete where other trades and companies fall short. 

A typical rewire specification for an average house could include:

2 socket circuits

2 lighting circuits

1 cooker circuit (if not gas)

1 water heater circuit (if not gas heated)

Lomax Electrical has installed all the above in various houses across the Northwest,  but not all in the same house!.

All cables would normally be concealed within the fabric of the building or within fixed voids and all accessories would be flush mounted (subject to building fabrication methods). Any items that were not to be flush mounted would be indicated within the estimate.

All regulation requirements and installation codes of practice will be observed. Full documentation and certification  will be issued on completion.
