Yeovil Electrics have years of experience working with homeowners and landlords in Crewkerne, upgrading electrical wiring for enhanced safety, reliability and compliance.
Why might I need a rewire electrician Crewkerne?
Have you spotted any hazardous signs such as electric shocks from plug sockets, randomly flickering lights or even dimming lights? Have you been experiencing constant tripping circuit breakers? If so, these might be signs your home in Crewkerne needs a rewire electrician.
Another reason to call out a rewire electrician is if the existing wiring at your property in Crewkerne is outdated, possibly showing signs of damage and general wear and tear.
Yeovil electrics recommend upgrading the wiring at your home if the property has not been rewired in around 30 years.
What does a rewire electrician do?
If you’re considering any major renovation work such as an extension or a remodel of your home in Crewkerne, you’ll definitely need a rewire electrician to ensure wiring is installed correctly to meet building regulations but to also cope with the increased electrical load to your home.
The process of a rewire is categorised by two stages or “fix”. The first fix involves installing new wiring in walls, floors and sometimes ceiling spaces. We also install the back boxes which are fitted into the walls to house fixtures like plug sockets and switches.
The actual plug socket faces and light switch covers are then installed during the second fix. All wiring and circuitry work is connected to the consumer unit and finally we run a series of tests to ensure the electrical system works as it should.
Benefits of using a rewire electrician
The greatest benefit of using a rewire electrician is to ensure enhanced safety at your home. The material used to insulate older wiring can degrade over time and become very hazardous, increasing the risk of electrical fires and electric shocks.
As modern wiring must comply with safety standards in accordance with the 18th Edition wiring regulations, any new electrical installations such as wiring or the consumer unit (if that too is upgraded) will include much better safety features and support the demands of electrical appliances used in modern homes.
Upgrading the wiring at your home will help to add value to your property, making it appealing to future buyers.
