Houses in South Heighton

An old village with newer neighbours

South Heighton has an older centre of flint built cottages and houses, but most of its homes are later: twentieth century semis, terraces and bungalows that spread out from the village as Newhaven grew northwards. Beneath the hill, the village is also known for the HMS Forward tunnels, a naval headquarters during the Second World War.

In the later homes the board usually sits in the hall, under the stairs or in a utility area, with the meter on an outside wall or in a nearby cupboard. Many have already had at least one upgrade, so we check what is really there rather than assume, then quote for a board that suits the house.

  • Earlier upgrades assessed
  • Board sized to the house

Power for the building at the end of the garden

Homes on the edge of a village often come with space outside, and that space gets used: a detached garage, a workshop, a summerhouse or a garden office. Each one needs a properly protected supply from the house. Too often these buildings are fed by an extension lead or an unprotected cable clipped along a fence.

When we replace your board, we can include a dedicated way for an outbuilding, protected by its own RCBO and ready for a correctly sized armoured cable. Where the cable has already been laid, testing it is included in the work. If not, we price the cable run separately, so you can see exactly what each part costs.

  • Dedicated outbuilding circuit
  • Armoured cable tested
  • Extension lead feeds retired
  • Garden office ready

Yes. We fit a dedicated way with its own RCBO for the office supply, which keeps a fault out there from affecting the house. The cable to the office must be suitable for burying or fixing outside and sized for the load, including any heater. If you already have one, we test it. If not, we quote for it alongside the board.

A high integrity board has two RCDs plus some ways that take individual RCBOs, so essential circuits such as a freezer or an outbuilding can be protected without sharing an RCD with anything else. At £575 for 12 ways, ours sits sensibly between dual RCD, from £425, and full RCBO, from £625.

Yes. Mains powered smoke and heat alarms are reconnected to the new board and tested before we leave. They normally sit on their own circuit or on a lighting circuit used every day, so a fault would soon be noticed. If yours are battery only or past their replacement date, we will mention it.
