Homes that have outgrown their boards

Upper Dicker's homes include older cottages and houses alongside later properties, and many have been extended or improved over the years. Each kitchen refit, conservatory, garden office or loft room usually means another circuit. When the board runs out of space, extra units get bolted on beside it, and the cupboard under the stairs fills with boxes and cables.

One consumer unit, large enough for the house as it is today plus a spare way or two, takes the place of the whole collection. The options run from a dual RCD board with ten ways at £495, through a high integrity board with 12 ways at £575, to full RCBO boards starting at £625. Every circuit is tested and labelled before we leave.

Moving the fuse box somewhere sensible

Older homes often have the fuse box high above a front door, behind coats in a cramped cupboard, or in a spot an extension has since made hard to reach. That matters when something trips at night, and it matters even more for anyone with limited mobility. A board change is the natural moment to put the consumer unit somewhere easier to see and reset.

Moving the board as part of a replacement adds £250, covering the new cable run from the meter. If your board is fairly new and you only want it moved, a standalone relocation is £395. The meter itself belongs to your supplier, so we tell you if that would need to move as well.

  • Relocation with new board, add £250
  • Standalone relocation £395
  • Easier reach for resetting trips
  • Meter questions answered honestly

We fit the new consumer unit in the agreed spot and run new cables from the meter to reach it. A short move, such as to another wall in the same hallway, usually adds £250 to the board price. Longer moves depend on the cable route. Photos of the current spot and the one you have in mind let us say what is practical.

Count the circuits you have now, add the ones you are planning, then leave a spare. We work this out with you from your photos, and we would rather fit a board with a little room than one that is full on day one. A slightly larger board now usually costs less than adding units later.

Very little. We lay dust sheets, protect the floor near the board and take the old board and packaging away with us. If the new unit is a different size, small gaps around it are filled tidily, though any repainting is left to you. Most boards are finished within four to six hours.
