Cottages by the river
Older walls, newer wiring and the board in between
Homes in a hamlet like Iping are individual rather than uniform: older brick and stone cottages alongside larger houses set in their own grounds. Most have been altered over the years, so the wiring is often a patchwork, with a kitchen, bathroom or extension added to a board that was never designed to carry it. That board is usually where we start.
Rewirable fuses, or an early consumer unit without a single RCD, are simply put right with a dual RCD board, starting at £425. Homes with several outbuildings or outdoor circuits benefit from full RCBO protection, from £625, because one fault then cannot switch everything off. Either way, Type 2 surge protection is included.

Damp walls and circuits that trip in wet weather
Older cottages near a river can hold moisture in their walls, and damp finds its way into the places electrics least like it: back boxes on outside walls, garden sockets, lights on outbuildings and cables run through cellars or under floors. On an old board with a single RCD, the result is often a whole house trip after heavy rain, with no obvious cause.
Our insulation resistance tests show which circuit is leaking to earth before we connect it to a new board. Damp outdoor fittings can then be dealt with properly rather than masked, and an RCBO board means a wet garden light trips on its own while the rest of the cottage stays lit.
- Insulation resistance tested on every circuit
- Outdoor and outbuilding circuits checked
- Leaking circuits found, not masked
- Wet weather trips kept to one circuit
Getting to you
From Brighton to Iping
The usual route from Brighton is across on the A272, through Midhurst and out past Stedham, and the distance adds nothing to your bill. Pictures of the consumer unit and meter are enough for us to quote a fixed figure and book a date. Ring us if the board feels hot, smells of burning or keeps tripping; getting to you that same day is the aim.

Iping questions
Asked in Iping
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Possibly, but the board is usually the messenger rather than the cause. Water getting into an outside light, a garden socket or a cable in a damp wall will trip an RCD. We test each circuit to find the leak and explain what we find, and with an RCBO board, one damp circuit only switches off itself.
In most cases the new consumer unit goes where the old fuse box was, connected to the same cables, so there is no chasing of walls. If the old board leaves a different outline on the wall we tidy it as neatly as we can, and we tell you in advance if any making good is likely to be needed.
An old fuse box is something buyers and their surveyors tend to ask about. Change it before you sell and you will have an Electrical Installation Certificate in your inbox within 48 hours, plus confirmation that Building Control has been notified of the work under Part P. Both are documents a buyer's solicitor will want to see, and they answer the question before it is asked.
