A scattering of homes
Farmhouses and cottages by the river
Hamsey itself is a quiet scattering of homes near the river, with the old church standing on its rise in a loop of the Ouse. Rural houses and cottages like these have often been rewired in parts over the years, and the way the circuits are laid out can be hard to read from the board alone.
Tracing and labelling every circuit is built into the work, so the new board makes sense to you and to anyone who works on the house later. Prices start at £425 for a dual RCD board and £625 for a full RCBO board, fixed before we begin.

Where should the board sit near a flood plain?
Parts of the Ouse valley around Hamsey are low lying meadows, and the river has flooded this valley before. Not every home here is at risk, but if yours is on lower ground, the position of the consumer unit matters. A board mounted near the floor in a hall or cupboard is among the first things to be soaked if water gets in.
Where it makes sense, we can fit the new board higher up the wall or in a drier part of the house, so it stays clear of standing water and can be switched off quickly. Moving the board at the same time as replacing it adds £250 to the price.
- Board raised clear of likely water
- Relocation with new board, add £250
- Quick isolation if water rises
- Meter position talked through
Getting to you
Hamsey visits and emergencies
To reach Hamsey we follow the A27, go through Lewes and head north on the A275 past Offham. A few photos of the board are enough for us to fix the price. Should the board be damaged or wet, keep well clear of it and phone us. We will come the same day where we can.

Hamsey questions
Asked in Hamsey
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691It is worth considering. Raising the board above the level water could reach, and running circuits down from above, means the electrics can be checked and restored sooner after a flood. We will look at the layout and tell you honestly whether moving it is practical, and what it would cost, before you decide.
If you can reach the main switch without standing in water, turn it off. If you cannot, keep away and call UK Power Networks on 105 so they can isolate the supply. Do not use any circuits until an electrician has tested them, because water can leave damage that you cannot see.
No. Prices are fixed, and travel is never added on anywhere in Sussex, so a home by the river at Hamsey pays the same as a house in the middle of Brighton. The price depends on the board you choose and any extras, such as relocation, all agreed before we start.
