Chiddingly parish, Heathfield postcode

Fuse Box Replacement in Gun Hill

Gun Hill has a slightly confusing address: the hamlet is in Chiddingly parish, yet its postcode is TN21, Heathfield. It lies north west of Hailsham. Owner occupiers and landlords of let cottages alike can have an old fuse box changed for a fixed fee, or book an inspection that comes with a plain written report.

Bringing older Gun Hill boards up to date

A hamlet like Gun Hill is a handful of rural homes rather than a street, and the electrics reflect when each was last updated. Plenty of country properties still run on rewireable fuses or an early RCD board. These met the rules of their day but lack the protection expected now, particularly on socket circuits that might power garden tools or outdoor equipment.

Our replacement brings the board up to the current 18th Edition standard: RCD or RCBO protection on every circuit, a metal enclosure and Type 2 surge protection. Every circuit beyond the board is tested too, and you receive the results in writing.

Landlord inspections and five-yearly EICRs

Every rented home in England needs a fresh Electrical Installation Condition Report within five years of the last one, and tenants receive a copy, as does the council if it asks for one. In rural parishes a let is often a single cottage, an annexe or a converted outbuilding, and the owner may not live nearby. An old fuse box frequently leads to remedial items on the report.

On its own an EICR is priced between £175 and £350, scaled to how big the property is, but it drops to £99 when booked alongside a new board. If remedial work is needed, we quote it in writing so you can complete it within the 28 days the regulations allow.

  • Standalone EICR from £175
  • £99 when done with a new board
  • Remedial work quoted in writing
  • Reports emailed for your records

Pass the report to us along with a picture of the board. We quote a fixed price for the replacement and any other listed items, carry out the work, and issue an Electrical Installation Certificate within 48 hours. That certificate, kept with the original report, gives you the written confirmation the regulations require for your tenant and the council.

Postcodes follow Royal Mail delivery routes rather than parish boundaries, so homes in one parish can share a post town with somewhere else entirely. For us it changes nothing: Gun Hill is in Chiddingly parish and Wealden district, and our fixed prices are the same whichever postcode you have.

Yes. Most board changes take four to six hours, and circuits come back on as each is tested. All we need is for the tenant to be told the supply will be off for part of the day, and for us to have access to the board, meter and sockets in each room. Certificates and test results are emailed to you.
