Homes from several eras

Faygate houses and the boards behind them

Unlike the brand new homes at neighbouring Kilnwood Vale, Faygate's houses were built at different times over many years, so the fuse boxes here are as varied as the homes. One house may still have rewireable fuses on a wooden backed panel, the next an early plastic unit with a single RCD, and another a separate box added later for a garage or extension.

Smaller homes often need nothing more than a dual RCD unit, and those start at £425. To stop one tripping circuit switching everything else off too, choose full RCBO protection, from £625, so each circuit has a device of its own. Once we have seen a picture of the board, the fixed price is confirmed.

Surge protection for a connected household

Plenty of homes now run a router, a work laptop, a smart TV and a boiler with its own electronics, all of them sensitive to brief voltage spikes. Such spikes may come from switching on the wider network or from lightning hitting overhead lines some way off, and nothing in an ageing fuse box stops them reaching your sockets.

On each board we fit in Faygate, Type 2 surge protection is standard, so there is nothing extra to add. If your consumer unit is already modern and in good order but has no surge device, a retrofit costs £165 and is usually a short visit, with the board tested afterwards.

  • Type 2 surge device included
  • Surge retrofit £165
  • Sensitive electronics protected
  • Board tested after fitting

It is included on every board we fit, so it never appears as an extra on your quote. A Type 2 surge device limits the short voltage spikes that can damage electronics, often caused by switching on the network or a distant lightning strike. It will not save equipment from a direct strike on the house, but it covers the far more common events.

Usually not. Clear pictures showing the consumer unit, meter and main fuse are normally all it takes to fix the price. If anything in the photos is unclear, such as an extra box in the garage or an unusual supply, we will ask a few questions or arrange a quick look before confirming.

Expect a typical board change to last four to six hours, with the supply switched off for much of it while we connect and test. Keep fridge and freezer doors shut and they will hold their temperature. We switch everything back on, check it all works, and email the Electrical Installation Certificate within 48 hours.
