Part of Wadhurst's built-up area
Village housing on the edge of Wadhurst
Unlike the scattered hamlets elsewhere in the parish, Durgates is part of Wadhurst's built-up area, with homes closer together and a broader range of ages. That range is mirrored in the fuse boxes. Older properties may have had the wiring renewed but not the board, while houses from the 1970s and 1980s commonly have consumer units without any RCD at all.
On a PME supply, the norm in built-up areas, the job includes checking the size of the main earth and the bonding to gas and water pipes. Anything undersized is flagged and priced before we start.
- Boards with no RCD replaced
- Main earth size checked
- Gas and water bonding verified
- PME supplies assessed properly

Letting a house in Durgates
A rented home in England needs a fresh Electrical Installation Condition Report every five years or sooner, with each new tenant given a copy. An outdated fuse box often leads to a report coming back unsatisfactory, and the landlord then has 28 days, or less if the report says so, to complete the remedial work.
If you let a property here, we can replace the board and carry out a full EICR on the same visit for £99 extra, so you finish the day with a new certificate and a current report. Standalone EICRs cost £175 to £350, with HMOs from £350.
- EICR for £99 with any board
- Remedial work done in one visit
- Reports emailed for your records
- HMO inspections from £350

A single photo by text is enough for a fixed price plus a booked date. Ring instead if the power is off, and we will aim for a visit the same day.

Durgates questions
Asked in Durgates
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691A C2 code means potentially dangerous, so the installation is unsatisfactory and needs remedial work. If the board itself is the issue, replacing it is usually the cleanest fix. If you send us a picture of the board together with the page of the report that mentions it, we can quote a fixed price and then provide new paperwork when the work is complete.
Yes. Electricity is off for a good part of the four to six hours, so it helps to warn tenants beforehand and ask them to keep the fridge and freezer shut. We are used to working in occupied homes and leave the property safe and switched back on before we go.
It meets current regulations and is our lowest priced option, from £425. The drawback is that one fault can trip half the circuits, which for a tenant can mean a phone call in the evening. Spend from £625 on full RCBO protection and only the circuit with the fault switches off, which usually means tenants ring less often.
