FAQs
Why would my Lancing home need a complete electrical rewire?
If your property is over 30 years old, still uses rubber-sheathed or fabric-covered wiring, or you experience frequent tripped breakers and flickering lights when running modern appliances, a full rewire is the safest solution. A rewire upgrades the cabling, consumer unit, earthing and protective devices so they can handle todayâs high-demand appliances, meet BS7671 (18th Edition) standards and reduce fire or shock risks.
How long does a whole-home rewire typically take?
An average three-bedroom house in Lancing usually takes 5â7 working days for a full rewire, including first-fix cabling and second-fix fittings. Larger properties, complex layouts or smart-home integrations can extend that to 10â14 days. We provide a detailed schedule before work begins and aim to restore essential circuits (lighting, boiler, fridge) at the end of each day.
Will I have to move out during the rewire?
Not necessarily. Many clients stay in their homes, but you should expect significant disruption: floorboards lifted, wall chases cut and power shutdowns during working hours. We can phase the project room-by-room, set up temporary supplies, and keep one habitable area powered so you can remain on site if you wish. Vacating the property can, however, shorten the overall duration and reduce dust contamination.
What permissions or certifications will I receive after the rewire?
As NICEIC-approved contractors we notify the work to Adur & Worthing Building Control under Part P of the Building Regulations. Once completed you will receive: 1) an Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) confirming the rewire complies with BS7671:2018+A2:2022, 2) a Building Control Compliance Certificate, and 3) a comprehensive test schedule for each circuit. These documents are essential for home insurance and when you come to sell the property.
Can you future-proof my home for smart appliances and EV charging?
Yes. During the rewire we can install additional radial circuits, Cat-6 data cabling, Wi-Fi access points, spare ways in the consumer unit, and 32 A or 63 A feeds for future electric vehicle charge points or heat pumps. We also offer smart lighting controls, voice-assist compatible switches and surge protection devices to safeguard sensitive electronics.
How much does a full rewire in Lancing cost?
Prices vary with property size, specification and finish. As a guide, a standard two-bedroom terrace starts around ÂŁ4,000âÂŁ4,500 +VAT, a three-bedroom semi ÂŁ5,000âÂŁ6,500 +VAT, and larger or smart-ready rewires can exceed ÂŁ7,500 +VAT. We provide a fixed, itemised quotation after a free onsite survey, highlighting any optional extras such as downlights, USB sockets or outdoor power.
