Living at Offham
A few homes on the lane north of Arundel
There are only a few properties at Offham, strung along the lane with the river on one side and rising ground on the other. Homes in a spot like this are usually older and individual, and their wiring has been updated in fits and starts over the decades, so we assume nothing until we have seen the board and tested the circuits.
In older houses we still sometimes meet rubber insulated or lead sheathed cable hidden behind later work. It is not always visible, which is why the test results matter. If a circuit is not safe to reconnect, we tell you on the spot and leave it isolated rather than put it on the new board.
- No assumptions about old wiring
- Old cable types identified
- Unsafe circuits left isolated

Damp, flooding and where the board sits
Homes close to the Arun and its water meadows live with damp air and, on the lowest ground, the chance of standing water in a wet winter. Electrical equipment and moisture do not mix, and a board mounted low on an outside wall or in a damp outbuilding can corrode and trip without warning.
Where a consumer unit sits low down or in a spot prone to damp, we check whether raising it or moving it somewhere drier makes sense during the same visit, at £250 on top of the board price. Where it is already well placed, we simply replace it and test insulation resistance carefully on every circuit.
- Board height reviewed
- Relocation with new board, add £250
- Insulation resistance tested
- Outbuilding supplies checked for damp

Offham questions
Asked in Offham
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Usually, yes. Moving the board to a higher or drier spot when it is replaced costs £250 on top of the board price, which covers extending the circuits to the new position. Moving the meter itself is a job for your energy supplier or UK Power Networks, so we plan the new position around where the meter stays.
Water getting into an outdoor socket, garden lighting, an outbuilding cable or a damp junction box is the usual culprit, and the RCD is doing its job by cutting the power. When we change the board we test each circuit separately, which often pins down the one at fault, and an RCBO board means a wet garden circuit no longer knocks out the whole house.
Mostly we just need a clear path to the board and meter, plus any outbuilding that has its own supply. Let us know about anything that must not lose power for long, such as a freezer. Keeping pets away from the work area helps too. We bring the board, parts and test equipment, and take the old unit away with us.
