Old village, mixed ages
From period cottages to later village homes
Rotherfield has grown outward from its old core, so the village holds everything from centuries old cottages and houses near the church to post war and more recent homes on its edges. In older buildings the wiring has usually been replaced at least once, but the fuse box and meter often stayed where an early installer put them, sometimes in a cramped cupboard or on an old wooden board.
Thick walls, uneven floors and old timbers make new cable routes harder, so we look closely at photos before quoting. Most board changes need no new cable runs at all, which suits older homes well. From £425 you can have dual RCD protection, and the whole installation is tested before we pack up.

Working in listed and character homes
Rotherfield has a good number of listed buildings, and its historic centre is valued for its character. Replacing a consumer unit in the same position is normally a straightforward electrical job, but anything that would cut into historic walls, beams or panelling needs more thought, and sometimes a conversation with the council's conservation team first.
We keep the new board in the existing position wherever that is safe, reuse existing cable routes and avoid chasing into old plaster. Where moving the board would genuinely help, we agree surface or concealed routes with you first. If you are unsure about consent, it is worth checking with Wealden District Council before booking.
- Existing position kept where safe
- No chasing into old plaster
- Routes agreed before work
- Consent questions raised early

Rotherfield questions
Asked in Rotherfield
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Usually not for a straight swap in the same position, as it does not alter the building's character. Moving the board, running new cables through historic fabric or fixing equipment to important features may be different. The council's conservation officer has the final say, so if your home is listed, a quick check beforehand is sensible.
It mainly affects new cable runs, and a board change happens almost entirely at the board itself. If the existing tails and circuits reach the new unit, the job takes the usual four to six hours. Extra time is only needed if a cable must be extended or rerouted, and we would tell you beforehand.
Yes, as long as the space is dry, easy to reach and not packed with clutter. Boards in homes must now have a non combustible enclosure, which in practice means metal, and the cupboard door should open easily so you can reach the switches in a hurry. We check the space from your photos.
