Village homes and woodland plots
A crossroads village with country houses around it
Flimwell sits around a crossroads on the A21, and its homes range from houses near the main road to more scattered properties along the lanes and among the woods beyond. There are older cottages and later houses alike, and the further a home is from the village centre, the more likely it is to be fed by an overhead line and to rely on its own earth rod.
Wherever your house sits, the board change includes a full test of the existing installation. Your Electrical Installation Certificate is sent within 48 hours, and Building Control is told about the work through Part P, so a record is ready for when you come to sell.

Why surge protection earns its place out here
Overhead lines running through wooded country are exposed to falling branches and the faults they cause, to lightning nearby, and to the switching that happens when the network restores supply. Each of these can send a brief voltage spike into the house. Modern electronics, from boiler controls to televisions and routers, are far more sensitive to spikes than the appliances older fuse boxes were designed around.
Each board we install in Flimwell comes with a Type 2 surge protector at no extra cost. It will not stop a direct lightning strike, but it limits the everyday transients that shorten the life of electronics. If your current consumer unit is sound, a surge device can be retrofitted for £165.
- Type 2 surge protection included
- Retrofit option £165
- Electronics better protected
- Overhead supply checked

Flimwell questions
Asked in Flimwell
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Unplug everything you can, then try the RCD again. If it holds, plug things back in one at a time to find the culprit. Still tripping with everything unplugged means the fault lies in the fixed wiring or the board, so leave it switched off and give us a call. We will talk you through what is safe while you wait.
It is a sensible order. A solar installation connects to your consumer unit, and installers generally want a modern board with suitable protection and a spare way. If yours is old or full, replacing it first avoids a separate add on unit. We can leave a labelled spare way and confirm the earthing so the solar installer has what they need.
Someone needs to let us in, and to be around at the end, when we walk you through the new board and how its protective devices work. In between, the power will be off for much of the 4 to 6 hours most jobs take, so many people choose to go out and come back later.
