The average cost of a house rewire Whitefield for a 3 bedroom property is between £5,000 - £8,000 but factors like working on an empty house makes the project much faster and cheaper.
If you’re planning a house rewire in Whitefield, there are some top tips to consider such as removing large pieces of furniture away from the walls so that the electrician has easy access to wiring. A house rewire does create a fair bit of dust, especially when pulling up old floorboards and cutting into the walls to create a cavity for new wiring. A rewire should be considered if electrical wiring is at least 25 years old or if issues have been identified in a recent EICR. Give the friendly team at Outwood Electrical Ltd a call so we can come out and check the state of existing wiring at your home in Whitefield.
Why might I need a house rewire in Whitefield?
Warning signs such as frequent tripping, burning smells or crackling sounds from the walls may indicate an issue with the electrical wiring. Homeowners who conduct a routine EICR may find electrical faults caused by outdated wiring. This was the case when working with a lovely family at Leyburn Close. The family of 5 had lived at the property for the last 15 years and had no plans to move from their 4 bed detached 90's home. We conducted an EICR as the owners had noticed issues with the wiring. Our advice was to consider a whole house rewire because of severe deterioration of wiring in some parts of the property. The wiring was actually around 30 years old so posed significant fire and shock hazards.
How messy is a house rewire Whitefield?
Let’s be honest, we all know there is some level of mess and dust during a house rewire. We suggested the homeowners at Leyburn Close declutter and move bulky items away from the walls to help with a more efficient house rewire. Luckily, a friend in the next street was scheduled to be on holiday when we planned to do the rewire. To return the friend's generous offer of storing the family's belongings in his garage and staying at his home during the house rewire, the family agreed to pet sit for their friend and water his many plants. This just meant that we didn’t have to slow down the rewire to move bulky furniture around and could get on with all stages of the rewire promptly. While the parents and children popped in every day to check on the progress of the work, they were stunned at the level of dust produced so they knew moving out for a few days was the best decision.
