Fuse boxes in Chiddingly's period homes

Around a medieval parish church you expect old houses, and Chiddingly has its share of period cottages and farmhouses alongside later homes. In older buildings the board is often tucked into a corner chosen long ago, with cables threaded through thick walls, past low beams or under old floorboards, and earlier wiring may have been fixed with little thought for the building.

We treat the building with respect. New cables follow existing routes wherever possible, fixings avoid old timber faces, and we agree any visible change with you before we start. Dust sheets go down before the tools come out, and we leave the space as we found it.

  • Existing cable routes reused
  • Minimal disturbance to old fabric
  • Changes agreed before we start
  • Dust sheets and a tidy finish

Changing a board in a listed home

Replacing a board in the same spot rarely affects a listed building's character, but moving it, chasing into old walls or running new surface cables could. Listed building consent covers works that affect a building's special interest, so if your Chiddingly home is listed, it is worth thinking about this while the work is being planned rather than afterwards.

We help by keeping the new unit where the old one was wherever possible, planning cable routes that avoid historic surfaces, and giving you a clear written description of the work for any conversation with the council. Building Control is notified under Part P as normal.

  • Board kept in its existing position
  • Routes planned around historic fabric
  • Written scope for the council
  • Part P notification included
Getting to you

How we reach Chiddingly

Our installers have a reasonable drive out from Brighton & Hove, though the last part runs along narrow country lanes. Send a picture of the board and we will fix the price, then you pick a date. Where a fault has left the house without power, phone us and we will give help the same day if at all possible.

For a straight swap in the same position, usually not, because it does not alter the character of the building. Moving the board, cutting into historic walls or adding visible new wiring is different and may need consent. If your home is listed, check with the council's conservation officer before anything beyond a like-for-like change. We will describe the work clearly to help.

Not always. We test every circuit as part of the board change, and some older wiring tests better than its age suggests. If circuits fail, we tell you which ones and why, so you can choose between targeted repairs now and a fuller rewire later. The new board is sized to work with either route.

Modern consumer units are compact metal enclosures, and most sit neatly inside an existing cupboard or recess. Where the old board was boxed in, the new one can usually go in the same space. If it will be on show in an old room, tell us beforehand and we will talk through the best position with you before the day.
