Rural homes north of Lewes
What we expect to find in a small hamlet
We will not pretend to know every house in North End. Like most small rural settlements in this part of Lewes district, it is likely to be a mix of older cottages and later houses, many altered or extended over the years. That usually means an older board, wiring of different ages and circuits added as the house changed.
Each job starts with a look at the board, the meter position and the earthing, and finishes with a full test. Inside 48 hours you receive a clear schedule of circuits and an emailed Electrical Installation Certificate, both useful for insurance and for any future sale.
- Board, meter and earthing checked
- Wiring of different ages tested
- Schedule of circuits provided
- Certificate within 48 hours

Moving a fuse box out of the way
In older rural homes the fuse box often ended up wherever the supply first came in: under the stairs behind the vacuum cleaner, high over a front door, in a porch or even in an outbuilding. A board in a place like that is hard to reach in a power cut and awkward to keep dry and clear.
When we replace the board we can move it to a better spot, such as a utility room or hallway wall, for an extra £250. If you want an existing board moved without replacing it, send us a photo and we will quote it. Either way, the meter itself stays where it is.
- Relocation with new board, add £250
- Moves quoted from a photo
- Easy to reach in a power cut
- Meter left in place
Getting to you
How we get to North End
Our installers drive out from Brighton & Hove along the A27 and through Lewes, then north into Hamsey parish. If moving the board is part of the plan, add a note of where you would like it to the photo you send, and the quote will be fixed. An urgent fault calls for a phone call, and we aim to come out that day.

North End questions
Asked in North End
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Somewhere dry, easy to reach and not hidden behind furniture or storage. A hallway, utility room or ground floor cupboard with the door kept clear works well. We avoid putting a board right down at floor level or out of reach above a door, so anyone in the house can reset it safely in the dark.
Every circuit has to be extended from the old position to the new one, joined in an accessible enclosure, and the meter tails often need lengthening too. That takes extra time and materials, which is why relocation adds £250 when it is done with a new board. The price is agreed before we start.
A wooden backboard on its own is not an emergency, but it usually means the board is decades old, with rewireable fuses and no RCD protection. Those are the real concerns, along with tired connections. Replacing it with a modern non combustible consumer unit deals with all of them in one visit.
