Fuse Box Replacement in Guestling Thorn
Guestling parish takes in the small hamlet of Guestling Thorn, out to the west of Winchelsea. Where there are only a handful of homes, old boards tend to be left alone for a very long time. A modern consumer unit can take over from one at a fixed price, with nothing charged for the journey.

Few homes, long histories
When a board has not been touched for decades
In a hamlet the size of Guestling Thorn, homes change hands rarely and electrics tend to be left as they are while they keep working. That is how rewirable fuses with fuse wire, cartridge fuse units and boards with no RCD protection survive. None of them will stop you boiling a kettle, but none will protect you from an electric shock either.
Replacing one is a well practised job. Out goes the old board, and in goes a modern one with RCD or RCBO protection, clear labels and Type 2 surge protection, followed by a test of every circuit. Four to six hours covers most jobs, and the certificate lands in your inbox within 48 hours of us finishing.

Specified for Guestling ThornOld cables, new sensitivity
Old cables, new sensitivity
Why older wiring can trip a brand new board
A board with RCD protection is far more sensitive than an old fuse box. If a cable has deteriorated, an appliance leaks a little current, or a neutral and an earth are touching somewhere in the house, the old fuses never noticed. The new board will. That is a good thing, but it is why testing before switching on matters so much.
We test each circuit before connecting it, so problems come to light while we are on site rather than the night after we leave. Anything we find is explained in plain terms and priced before any extra work is done. Plenty of older installations pass without trouble; we simply do not assume they will.
- Insulation resistance tested
- Borrowed neutrals identified
- Faults priced before any work
- No nasty surprises after we leave

Guestling Thorn questions
Asked in Guestling Thorn
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Working is not the same as protecting. An old fuse box only protects the cables against overload, while a modern board with RCDs cuts the power in a fraction of a second if someone touches something live. It also adds surge protection and makes faults far easier to trace. The upgrade costs from £425 for a dual RCD board.
We stop, explain what we have found and show you the readings if you would like to see them. Small faults can often be put right on the day once you have agreed a price. Anything bigger is written up so you can decide, and we never leave a home in an unsafe state.
Yes, and at exactly the same prices as anywhere else in Sussex. There is no call out fee and no travel charge, however few houses share your lane. A photo quote takes a few minutes to arrange by text, and you choose the date that suits you.
