Housing in South Bersted

Several generations of housing within a short walk

South Bersted has its own name and identity, but today it is joined to Bognor Regis, so within a few streets you can pass older houses, interwar semis, postwar homes and later infill. Each era tends to come with its own style of wiring and its own kind of fuse box, and many have been altered more than once since they were built.

Expect cast iron or wooden fuse boxes in the oldest homes, early MCB boards with no RCD in postwar ones, and plastic consumer units in later houses. Before quoting we look at the earthing and the size of the meter tails as well, because a new board is only as good as the supply it connects to.

  • Rewirable fuses replaced
  • Meter tails checked for size
  • Earthing and bonding upgraded where needed
  • Every circuit tested and labelled

Two boards, a timeswitch and a set of storage heaters

If your South Bersted flat or bungalow has electric storage heating, it may well run on Economy 7 or a similar off peak tariff. That often means two fuse boxes side by side: one for the house and one for the heaters and immersion, sometimes with an old timeswitch or teleswitch in the mix, and frequently neither has any RCD protection.

When we replace the main board we can replace the heater board too, or tidy the arrangement, keeping the off peak circuits on the correct side of the meter so your heaters still charge at the cheaper rate. If you are thinking about a heat pump or panel heaters later, say so and we will leave suitable spare ways.

  • Economy 7 circuits kept on the cheap rate
  • Old timeswitches assessed
  • Immersion heater circuit tested
  • Spare ways for future heating changes
Getting to you

Booking a visit in South Bersted

From Brighton & Hove we head west on the A27 and drop down towards Bognor, roughly 24 miles in all, with no travel charge. Send us a picture of the board and the meter next to it by text, and back comes a firm price with a few dates to choose from. A board that has failed or smells of burning gets priority, often the same day.

Not always. If the heater board is in good condition and tests well, it can sometimes stay, but very often it is as old as the main fuse box and has no RCD protection. We look at both from your photos, tell you honestly whether one or both should go, and price each option separately so you can choose.

Every circuit is checked for insulation resistance, polarity, earth continuity and how quickly the protective devices disconnect a fault. A new board connected to a damaged circuit could trip repeatedly or mask a danger, so testing is part of doing the job properly rather than an extra. Every result is written up on your Electrical Installation Certificate, sent to you by email no later than 48 hours afterwards.

Some early fuse boxes and fuse carriers did contain asbestos, usually in small pads or backing boards. If we see material that could be asbestos, we will not disturb it. We stop, explain what we have seen and advise you on having it tested and safely removed before the board change goes ahead, so nobody is put at risk.
