FAQs
Why would I need a whole-home rewire?
A complete rewire is recommended when your property still contains outdated wiring (such as rubber, cloth-covered, or aluminium cables), you experience frequent breaker trips or flickering lights, or you are planning major renovations that add heavy electrical loads. Rewiring brings the installation up to current BS 7671 standards, improves safety, increases energy efficiency, and future-proofs your home for modern appliances and smart-home technology.
How long does a full house rewire in Newport typically take?
The average three-bedroom property takes around 5–7 working days, but timing can vary with the size of the home, accessibility of cables, and whether the house is occupied. A small flat might take 2–3 days, while a large, multi-storey home can exceed two weeks. We supply a detailed schedule after our free on-site survey so you know exactly what to expect.
Will I have to move out during the rewiring process?
Not necessarily. Many clients stay in their homes, especially if the rewire is phased room-by-room. However, rewiring is messy and power must be shut off in areas being worked on. If you work from home, have small children, or need constant power, temporary relocation may be more comfortable. We discuss options in advance and can arrange portable supplies and safe zones to keep disruption minimal.
What certifications and regulations do your electricians follow?
All of our electricians are NICEIC-approved contractors and City & Guilds qualified. We rewire to the current 18th Edition of the IET Wiring Regulations (BS 7671) and Part P of the Building Regulations for England & Wales. On completion you receive an Electrical Installation Certificate and Building Control notification, ensuring full compliance for insurance, resale, and peace of mind.
How much does a whole-home rewire cost in Newport?
Costs depend on property size, number of circuits and outlets, chosen accessories (standard white plates vs. premium finishes), and whether walls and floors need extensive restoration. As a guide, a two-bed flat starts around £3,500, an average three-bed semi ranges £4,500–£6,500, and larger or period homes can exceed £8,000. We provide a fixed, itemised quotation after a free survey so there are no surprises.
What is your process for minimising disruption and cleaning up after the job?
We protect floors and furniture with dust sheets, use chasing equipment fitted with extraction to reduce airborne particles, and isolate each work zone. Daily tidy-ups keep pathways clear, and a professional clean is carried out before handover. We also offer plaster patching and decorating as optional extras, meaning your home is left safe, functional, and ready for immediate use.
