Homes in Mount Pleasant

Typical homes of Newhaven's east side

Mount Pleasant is a small, mainly residential area in the north east of Newhaven, sharing the BN9 postcode and Lewes District with neighbouring Denton. Its homes are typical of this side of the river: houses and bungalows built as the town spread through the twentieth century, many of them extended or modernised by successive owners.

In homes of this kind, the board might be the original fuse box with rewireable fuses, an early MCB board without RCDs, or a newer unit fitted during a refurbishment. We identify which from your photo, explain what it lacks, and quote a fixed price for the right replacement before anyone visits.

  • Photo identification first
  • Rewireable fuses replaced
  • Early MCB boards upgraded
  • Price agreed before the visit

When the board needs to move as well

Plenty of fuse boxes end up somewhere inconvenient: high above the front door, behind coats in a cramped cupboard, inside a kitchen unit that is about to be ripped out, or in a garage that is being converted. If you are renovating, the board change is the ideal moment to put it somewhere better.

Moving the board when we fit a new one adds £250 to the price, while relocating an existing board on its own costs £395. We check how far the meter tails can sensibly run, keep the new position clear of water and heat, and make sure the main switch is easy to reach in an emergency.

  • Relocation with a new board, add £250
  • Standalone move £395
  • Main switch easy to reach
  • Garage conversions planned around

Yes, and timing it with a kitchen refit saves a second round of mess. Ideally we come once the old units are out and before new ones go in, so the cables can be rerouted while walls are open. Moving the board as part of a replacement adds £250. Tell us your fitter's schedule and we will work around it.

No. The meter belongs to your energy supplier and the cut-out to UK Power Networks, so both stay where they are. We run new meter tails from the meter to the board's new position, within the limits the regulations allow. If you want the meter itself moved, that is arranged through your supplier, and we can explain how to ask.

We will not leave an unsafe circuit connected. Testing sometimes uncovers faults the old fuses never revealed, such as damaged cable or neutrals shared between circuits. We explain the problem, make the circuit safe and give you a price to fix it, so you can decide without pressure. Everything else is switched back on as normal.
