Period houses, modern protection

Burwash has a great many older buildings, from timber framed houses to tile hung and weatherboarded cottages along the High Street, with later homes built around the edges of the village. In older properties the wiring has often been renewed in stages, so it is common to find a newer board feeding some circuits while older cabling survives on others.

That is why we test the whole installation with every board change, not just our new connections. If an old circuit fails its insulation test, we tell you before anything is switched back on, explain the options and agree any extra work with you first.

  • Mixed old and new wiring tested
  • Insulation results explained
  • Faults raised before switching on
  • Whole house certified

Changing a board in a listed Burwash house

Burwash has a conservation area and a good number of listed buildings, and the village lies within the High Weald National Landscape. Swapping a consumer unit like for like inside a listed house does not usually touch its character, but moving the board, running new cables through old timbers or fixing equipment to a historic wall can be a different matter.

Wherever possible we fit the new board in the same position and reuse existing cable routes, keeping fixings discreet. If you are thinking of relocating the board in a listed property, check with Rother District Council first. Relocation alongside a new board adds £250 once you have the go ahead.

  • Same position where possible
  • Existing cable routes reused
  • Discreet fixings
  • Relocation only once cleared
Getting to you

Burwash, along the A265 from Heathfield

Reaching Burwash is simple: we go through Heathfield, then east on the A265, passing through Burwash Weald on the way into the village. Fixed prices are agreed from photos, so the day we arrive is spent fitting rather than surveying. An urgent failure is worth a phone call straight away, as we aim to reach you that same day.

Burwash questions

Asked in Burwash

Still not sure?

Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.

Call 0333 360 8691

Usually not for a straight swap in the same place, because the work does not alter the character of the building. Moving the board, chasing walls or fixing new equipment to historic fabric may need consent, and that is a question for the conservation team at Rother District Council. We will describe exactly what the job involves so you can ask them.

Rarely. A board change is mostly done at the board itself: the existing circuits are reconnected to the new unit, and the old cables stay where they are. Cutting into walls only comes up if the board is moved or a new circuit is added, and we would agree that with you before starting.

Yes. The report it produces, an EICR, sets out the condition of the existing installation and costs between £175 and £350 according to property size. If you then go ahead with a new board, the EICR costs only £99 alongside it. In an older house where the wiring has been changed in stages, an EICR is a sensible first step.
