What a hamlet like this tends to have on the wall

In a small rural hamlet such as Smock Alley, homes tend to be individual houses and cottages of different ages rather than a uniform estate. Their boards follow suit. One house might still have a wooden backed fuse box with rewireable fuses, the next an early consumer unit with no RCD, another a plastic board fitted perhaps twenty years ago.

None of that changes our approach. We test the whole installation, explain the results in plain English and then fit the board that suits your home. A certificate is emailed to you inside 48 hours, and we notify Building Control on your behalf.

Dual RCD, RCBO or arc fault: which suits you

From £425, a dual RCD board shares your circuits between two RCDs, which means a single fault can cut power to roughly half the house. At £625 and up, a full RCBO board protects every circuit on its own, so the faulty one is the only one to go off. That matters in a country home, where a trip overnight can leave a freezer, pump or heating without power.

The highest level of protection comes from an RCBO board with arc fault detection, priced from £1,095 for a 10 way board. These devices pick up dangerous sparking from damaged cables or loose terminals. We explain the trade offs honestly and never push the dearest option when a simpler board will do.

  • Dual RCD from £425
  • Full RCBO from £625
  • RCBO and AFDD from £1,095
  • Honest, no pressure advice

Smock Alley questions

Asked in Smock Alley

Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.

Call 0333 360 8691

Rewireable fuses are not dangerous in themselves, but they give no protection against electric shock, can be repaired with the wrong wire and are slow to operate. A modern board adds RCD protection and surge protection, which makes it one of the most worthwhile safety upgrades for an older home.

In most cases, yes. Send us clear photos by text showing the fuse box, the meter and the main earth cable, and we work out a fixed price from them. If anything in the photos is unclear we ask a few questions rather than guess, and the agreed price covers the board, testing and certification.

Someone needs to let us in at the start and be around at the end, so we can show you the new board and how to reset it. In between you are free to come and go. Most board changes take four to six hours, and the supply is off for much of that time.
