Older walls, older wiring
Strettington cottages and what sits behind the plaster
Flint and brick are familiar materials on older buildings across the coastal plain around Chichester, and cottages of that era were wired long after they were built, often then rewired in stages. In older Strettington homes you can find a mix of cable types under one roof, some modern and some much older.
The fuse box is often the oldest part of the system you can see. Swapping it for a modern board with RCD protection is a big safety step, but only if the circuits it feeds are sound, which is why we never fit a new board without testing everything connected to it.

What the testing turns up
When a Strettington board change uncovers old wiring
Modern RCD protection is far more sensitive than an old fuse box, so it can expose problems that were always there: damp in an outside light, a damaged cable in a wall, or an old circuit with poor insulation. That is the protection doing its job. Our testing finds these before the new board goes live, not after you have been left in the dark.
If we find a fault, we show you the readings, explain the options and price any repair before doing it. Small faults can often be put right on the day. Where a circuit needs rewiring, we make it safe and you decide when to tackle it.
- Faults found before switch on
- Readings shown to you
- Repairs priced before work
- Unsafe circuits made safe

Strettington questions
Asked in Strettington
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691We stop and talk to you. You see the reading, we explain what it means and what it would cost to fix, and nothing extra is done without your agreement. Any circuit that is unsafe to connect is left isolated and labelled, while everything else in the house carries on working as normal.
Rewireable fuses are not illegal, but they offer no protection against electric shock, and fuse wire is easily replaced with the wrong rating. A modern board adds RCD protection that can cut the power in a fraction of a second. £425 buys a dual RCD board, with surge protection part of that price.
Someone needs to let us in and be around at the end, when we walk you through the new board and the test results. In between you can go out if you prefer, though we may ring if testing turns something up. Bear in mind the power will be off for much of the 4 to 6 hours.
