Towcester grew up along Watling Street, and its stone and brick cottages are some of the oldest housing stock in our patch, plenty still running wiring that's well past its best. Meanwhile the Moat Lane regeneration is bringing new homes into the town centre, so we see both ends of the job: careful, sympathetic rewires in the old coaching-town core and fresh installations in brand-new builds.
In an older cottage we plan every socket and switch with you before a cable's lifted, protect floors and features and chase walls cleanly so the finish disappears once decorated. Every circuit is tested and certified, and as NAPIT-registered electricians we notify the work to Building Control for you.

Your questions, answered
How much does a rewire cost in Towcester?
A full rewire of a typical three-bedroom home costs £4,000 to £8,000, with older Watling Street cottages sometimes a little more depending on access and period features. Either way you get one fixed price in writing before any work starts.
Can we live in the house during a rewire?
Usually yes. We work room by room and keep the power on overnight wherever possible, and we'll tell you honestly if a bigger job is quicker with the house empty.
How do I know if my Towcester home needs rewiring?
Common signs are a fuse box with rewireable fuses, fabric or rubber-coated cables, warm or loose sockets and too few sockets per room. An EICR will tell you for certain.
