A lot of Huddersfield's housing is older stone-built terraces, cottages and converted mill buildings. Many have wiring that has been patched and extended over the decades, and some still have original rubber or fabric-insulated cable that has become brittle.
We carry out full and partial rewires that bring older properties up to the current wiring regulations. We plan the work around you, keep dust and disruption down, and leave the house clean and tidy.
When a rewire is worth considering
- Old black rubber, fabric-covered or lead-sheathed cables
- Round-pin sockets, or sockets mounted on skirting boards
- Not enough sockets, so extension leads are everywhere
- An EICR has shown the wiring as unsatisfactory
- You're renovating and walls or floors are coming up anyway
- You've bought a house where the wiring age is unknown
How it works
- We inspect the property and agree what you want: socket positions, lighting, data and so on.
- We give you a written quote and a plan of how the work will run, room by room.
- First fix: new cables are run while walls and floors are open.
- Second fix: sockets, switches, lights and the consumer unit are fitted.
- We test everything, issue your certificate and notify the work under Part P.

Questions about house rewires
Can I stay in the house during a rewire?
Often yes, especially with a partial rewire. We'll work room by room and get power back on each evening where we can. A full rewire of an empty house is quicker.
How long does a full rewire take?
A typical three-bedroom house takes several days for the electrical work, plus plastering and making good. We'll give you a realistic timeline in your quote.
Do you do partial rewires?
Yes. If part of the house was rewired more recently, we can test what's there and rewire just the circuits that need it.
