What Does a Full House Rewire Include?
A full rewire involves replacing the fixed electrical wiring throughout your property rather than repairing individual circuits. The exact specification is agreed after assessing your existing installation and requirements.
Depending on the property, work can include:
- Replacing outdated or deteriorated electrical cables
- Installing new lighting and socket circuits
- Replacing or upgrading the consumer unit where required
- Installing new switches and socket outlets
- Improving circuit protection
- Providing additional sockets or lighting points
- Preparing circuits for extensions, garden rooms or EV charging
- Testing the completed installation and providing the appropriate certification
NICEIC also advises that house rewiring should be carried out by a qualified, competent electrician.
When Should You Consider Rewiring Your Home?
The age of a property alone does not determine whether it requires rewiring. The condition, design and safety of the existing electrical installation are more important. Electrical Safety First advises that older wiring is not automatically unsafe and that professional inspection is the appropriate way to establish its condition.
A professional assessment is particularly worthwhile if you have:
Signs of Overheating & Wear
Repeatedly tripping circuits, discoloured or damaged accessories, and ageing fuse boards indicate underlying electrical strain or deterioration.
Outdated Cable Systems
Very old wiring, extensive previous DIY alterations, or an insufficient number of sockets that leads to an over-reliance on extension leads.
EICR Defects or Renovations
An EICR report identifying significant safety defects, or major building, extension and renovation work where walls and floors are already accessible.
What Happens During a Full Rewire?
Rewiring can involve access to floors, walls and ceilings, so some disruption should be expected. We plan each project carefully to minimise inconvenience:
- Electrical Assessment & Planning: We assess the existing installation and discuss how you use the property before agreeing the scope of work.
- Removal & New Installation: Existing wiring is replaced as required and new circuits, cables, accessories and protective equipment are installed in accordance with the agreed specification.
- Testing & Certification: The new installation is inspected and tested before completion, with the appropriate electrical certification provided for the work carried out.
Rewiring Planned Around Your Home
A full rewire is an opportunity to consider how your electrical system should work now and in the future.
Before installation, we can discuss the number and position of sockets, lighting arrangements and any planned electrical additions. Thinking through these requirements before work starts can help avoid relying on extension leads or making unnecessary alterations later.
For homeowners renovating, it is usually sensible to coordinate rewiring before final plastering, decorating and flooring wherever practical.
Electrical Safety & Current Standards
Domestic electrical work needs to be designed and installed safely and in accordance with applicable requirements. Haras Electrical Services is an NICEIC Approved Contractor, fully insured and a member of the Competent Person Scheme.
New electrical installations are completed with reference to the current BS 7671 Wiring Regulations, helping ensure appropriate protection, testing and certification. NICEIC's current guidance for domestic installations reflects BS 7671:2018+A4:2026.

Frequently Asked Questions
There is no single timescale that applies to every property. The duration depends on the size and layout of the house, accessibility, whether it is occupied, the number of circuits and accessories required, and the condition of the existing installation. We can provide a clearer timescale after assessing your property and agreeing the specification.
The cost depends on the property's size, number of rooms, accessibility and the specification of the new installation. Additional sockets, lighting points, specialist circuits and other requirements can also affect the quotation. We assess the property before providing a free quote rather than applying a one-size-fits-all price.
No. Older wiring should be assessed based on its condition rather than age alone. An electrical inspection can identify deterioration, inadequate protection or defects and determine whether repairs, a partial rewire or a full replacement is appropriate.
Yes. Renovation can be a practical time to complete rewiring because access to walls, floors and ceilings may already be available. Discussing electrical requirements early also allows socket positions, lighting and future equipment to be incorporated before final decoration.
