Signs Your Property May Need Rewiring

A lot of properties in Leicester still have older wiring that’s well past its best. We see it all the time.

You might need a rewire if you’ve noticed:

  • Electrics tripping regularly
  • Lights flickering or dimming
  • Old-style fuse boards
  • Burn marks or smells from sockets
  • Not enough sockets for modern use
  • Wiring that hasn’t been touched in 25 to 30 years

 

If you’re unsure, we can take a look and give you an honest opinion. No pressure.

Customer Reviews

Chris Townson
JPR recently installed our EV charger at home. They worked with me to select the best charger for our use, they sourced the item (well priced) and then did a really good and tidy installation. I would consider using them for other works in the future as they were very professional.
Liz Neale
Very good installation of our car charger, it is mounted neatly and everywhere was left neat and tidy when finished. Justin had to lift paving stones etc, everything was left back in place. Very pleased with his work.
Tim Perkins
I have used Justin on a few occasions. Most recently to rewire our kitchen, replace sockets and install down lights. Very professional and reasonably priced.
Simon Costello
Great communication and super service.

Frequently Asked Questions

It depends on the size of the property, how accessible the wiring is, and whether the property is occupied. As a rough guide, a full rewire can range from a few thousand pounds upwards. We always provide a proper quote after seeing the job.

Most standard house rewires take between 5 to 10 days. Larger properties or more complex jobs can take longer. If you’re living in the property, we can often split the work into stages.

Not always, but it can make things quicker and less disruptive. If you do stay, we’ll work room by room where possible and keep things safe and manageable.

If your wiring is over 25 years old, or you’re noticing issues like tripping electrics, flickering lights or outdated fuse boards, it’s worth getting it checked. We can carry out an inspection and let you know where you stand.
