What happens on the day
We work systematically through the property to manage power disruptions and maintain clean working zones while replacing hidden cables and surface accessories.
- Initial walk-through and power isolationWe walk through the property with you to verify the positioning of all sockets, switches and fittings. We then disconnect and isolate the old circuits at the incoming supply point, making certain that redundant cables are completely dead before any pulling begins.
- Cable routing and accessory installationWe install fresh low-smoke zero-halogen cabling under floor voids and through partition spaces. Back boxes are installed, faceplates are connected for power points and switches, and heavy-duty cabling is run for cookers, showers, and immersion heaters.
- Consumer unit connection and circuit testingOnce the cabling reaches the main intake position, we terminate every circuit inside a new metal consumer unit fitted with individual protective switches. We test insulation resistance, earth continuity, and fault loop impedances across every single connected accessory.
- System handover and certificationBefore clearing the work area, we verify that each switch, socket and light operates correctly. We explain how the protective breakers operate on the consumer unit and issue an Electrical Installation Certificate to record the completed works.

WhatsAppCan I stay in the house while the rewire is taking place?
Yes, many homeowners choose to remain in the property. We isolate power zone by zone and reinstate temporary supplies to essentials like refrigerators and basic lighting at the end of each working day. Expect dust and restricted access to specific rooms while floorboards are lifted and walls are channelled.
How long does a complete house rewire usually take?
A standard flat or smaller terrace can take several working days, whereas larger multi-storey detached properties typically require up to two weeks. The duration depends heavily on whether the property is fully furnished or empty, and how easily cables can be routed beneath flooring.
What documentation will I receive once the rewire is finished?
You receive a full Electrical Installation Certificate that lists all measured test values for each circuit. As MX2 Electrical is NAPIT registered, we also notify local authority building control, who issue a Building Regulations Compliance Certificate directly to you.
Does a house rewire include plaster repair and decorating?
Our work covers all electrical aspects, including cutting channels, running cables, fixing back boxes, and installing faceplates. Filling deep wall chases, final surface skim plastering, floor refitting and repainting are handled separately by building or decorating trades once electrical testing is complete.
Can you rewire a single room, loft conversion or extension?
Yes. We frequently carry out partial rewires for home extensions, renovated kitchens, or converted attics. We check your existing fuse board to confirm it has sufficient capacity and safety devices to support the new circuits, upgrading the board if necessary.
