Older homes in a small hamlet
Few houses, each one different
With so few homes, there is no typical Folkington house. What many share is age: older buildings that have been modernised in stages, with wiring added as each generation needed it. The fuse box might be in a cellar, a back lobby or an outbuilding, and it often protects circuits nobody has fully traced in years.
Tracing comes first. We identify what every circuit feeds, test it, and only then plan the new board, so nothing is left unprotected or mislabelled. You end up with a printed schedule showing exactly what each way controls, which matters when a property has grown in so many directions.
- Every circuit traced
- Boards in cellars and lobbies
- Printed circuit schedule

Respecting old fabric
Older buildings around Folkington may be listed, and even where they are not, owners rightly care about walls, beams and joinery. Swapping a consumer unit in the same position usually leaves historic fabric untouched. New cable routes, surface trunking or moving the board are different, and on a listed home they are worth clearing with the planning authority first.
Where cables do need to move, we use existing voids and routes wherever possible and keep fixings to a minimum. If the board is staying put, the new unit goes on the same spot. If you would like it moved somewhere less obtrusive, relocation is £250 extra alongside a new board.

Asked in Folkington
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691It can, as long as the space is dry, reasonably accessible and the board can be reached safely. Damp cellars are a problem for any switchgear, so we check for signs of moisture and corrosion. If the cellar is not suitable, moving the board is £250 extra with a new unit, or £395 as a separate job.
Of course. We cover every village and hamlet in Sussex at the same fixed prices, and a small place off the A27 is no harder for us to reach than a busy town. A picture of your fuse box by text gets you a price and a date in return.
Not for the board change itself. The new consumer unit connects to the existing circuits where they arrive at the old one. Floors or walls only come into it if a circuit has to be extended or rerouted, for example to move the board, and we would agree that with you in advance.
