Full house rewiring

Start with the finished room layout

A full house rewire is the point to decide how each room will be used, not simply to replace cables in their old positions. In a tall Notting Hill house, we review furniture layouts, bedside sockets, kitchen equipment and circulation between floors before preparing the installation. Decisions made while floors and walls are accessible can prevent avoidable changes after plastering. We also distinguish the electrical scope from the decoration and joinery work around it.

01

Plan access around retained features

Original floorboards, plaster details and fitted cupboards can affect how a route is reached. The survey should identify which areas can be opened, which finishes are being replaced anyway and where another route deserves consideration. We discuss this with the owner or designer before the first-fix programme is agreed. A rewire does involve disturbance; the useful question is where that disturbance will occur and who will reinstate each surface.

02

From first fix to a usable home

The installation sequence follows the agreed rooms and construction stages. Cable installation comes before closed surfaces, while accessories and final connections depend on completed finishes and equipment availability. Testing, circuit identification and the appropriate completion documentation form part of handover. If you intend to stay in the house, tell us at enquiry stage so that access and supply interruptions can be assessed realistically rather than assumed away.

Before we quote

Useful details for your enquiry

A little information about your home helps us prepare a focused project discussion.

  • Mark retained floors, decorative plasterwork and fitted furniture on your plans
  • Confirm appliance positions before finalising the circuit schedule
  • Agree whether the house will be occupied during the works

Your questions

Planning the work

Can the original switches stay in the same positions?

Where suitable, positions can be retained. We still review how the room will work after refurbishment, the wiring route and the condition or specification of the accessories.

Is decorating included in a rewire quote?

The quotation should say exactly what is included. We agree the boundary between electrical installation, access openings, plaster repairs and final decoration before work starts.
