A handful of rural homes
Small hamlet, very individual boards
A hamlet of this size has no standard house type, so there is no standard fuse box either. Each property has been wired and altered by different owners over the years. That shows up at the board: a cartridge fuse unit in one home, a crowded plastic consumer unit in the next, sometimes a separate box added later for a garage or garden supply.
Because the homes differ so much, we price from your photos rather than from assumptions. Most of what we need shows up in clear pictures of three things: the board, the main earth cable and the meter. Anything a photo cannot show, we point out in the quote instead of springing it on you on the day.
- Quotes priced from your photos
- Extra garage boxes brought onto one board
- Main earth and bonding checked
- Fixed price agreed before we travel
Specified for Houghton GreenLetting near Rye
Letting near Rye
Cottages let to guests or tenants
Rye draws visitors all year round, and some homes in the surrounding parishes are let, either to long term tenants or as holiday cottages. Private long lets in England need a fresh EICR at intervals of no more than five years. Holiday lets sit outside those regulations, but insurers and booking agents often ask to see a recent report.
If an inspection flags the old board, we can replace it and retest the whole property in a single visit, and the Electrical Installation Certificate reaches you within 48 hours. An EICR costs £99 alongside a board change, and we can usually work around changeover days if you tell us your bookings.
- Landlord EICRs from £175
- Board change and EICR in one visit
- Dates fitted around guest changeovers
- Certificates emailed for your records

Houghton Green questions
Asked in Houghton Green
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691There is no fixed legal interval for holiday lets in the way there is for long tenancies, but you still have a duty to keep guests safe, and many insurers and agents expect a current EICR. On its own, a report is priced between £175 and £350, according to how big the property is. If the board needs replacing, we quote that separately.
In most homes, yes. The circuits already arrive at that spot, so keeping the position is quickest and least disruptive. Where the existing spot is awkward, damp or hard to reach, moving the board during the same visit adds £250, and the new position is agreed with you first.
No. The price list is the same everywhere in Sussex, and we add nothing for mileage to the TN31 villages and hamlets around Rye. The board you choose is the only thing that changes the price, which runs from £425 for dual RCD protection on 6 ways up to £1,295 for a 14 way board with arc fault detection.
