Several decades of housing
From rewireable fuses to first generation RCD boards
A village this close to a city usually holds homes from several eras, from older cottages to houses built after the war and more recent infill. The boards we find vary just as widely: rewireable fuse carriers on wooden backs, 1990s units with a single RCD covering every circuit, and plastic consumer units that predate the current rule on non-combustible enclosures.
Whatever is there now, every replacement follows one pattern: a metal consumer unit, a test of every circuit, Type 2 surge protection, then your Electrical Installation Certificate, which reaches your inbox inside 48 hours. The entry point for a smaller home is £425, which buys a 6 way board with dual RCD protection.

Buying or selling in Donnington with an old fuse box
A home survey will often flag an old fuse box, a plastic consumer unit or missing RCD protection, and that can unsettle a sale late in the day. Photos let us price the work quickly, most new boards go in during a single 4 to 6 hour visit, and the emailed certificate follows within 48 hours, so the paperwork is ready for the solicitors.
If you would rather have the full picture first, a standalone EICR costs between £175 and £350, scaled to how big the property is. Booked alongside a board change it is £99, because we are testing the whole installation anyway.

Donnington questions
Asked in Donnington
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Often, yes. Board photos sent by text can usually be priced the same day. Fitting and testing most boards fills 4 to 6 hours; within two days you have the Electrical Installation Certificate in your email, and Building Control hears about the job from us under Part P. Tell us your deadline when you book.
Not automatically, but it gives no RCD protection against electric shock, fuse wire can be replaced with the wrong rating, and a wooden backing is combustible. Most people choose to replace it rather than keep patching it. Replacement costs £425 upwards with dual RCDs, or £625 if every circuit is to have its own RCBO.
The new metal consumer unit, Type 2 surge protection, connection of your existing circuits, a full test and inspection of the installation, notification to Building Control and your certificate. Wherever you are in Sussex, travel costs nothing extra. The only possible extras are repairs to faulty circuits, which we always explain and agree with you first.
