Old village, newer houses

From downland cottages to modern homes

Washington combines an older village centre with houses added through the twentieth century and since, so the electrics here range widely. Older cottages may still have early fuse boxes, while newer homes often have a first generation consumer unit that now looks dated. Both commonly lack surge protection and full RCD cover, which today's wiring regulations expect.

We check your board and meter from photos and recommend the simplest option that meets the regulations. Many smaller homes are well served by 10 ways of dual RCD protection at £495, while larger houses with several heavy circuits gain flexibility from a 12 way high integrity board at £575.

  • Older fuse boxes replaced
  • First generation units upgraded
  • Full RCD cover throughout
  • Surge protection on every board

Adding an electric car charger

With the A24 on the doorstep, Washington is a practical base for people who drive to Worthing, Horsham and beyond, and more of them are switching to electric cars. A home charger draws a heavy, continuous load for hours at a time. A charger needs a protected circuit to itself, which neither an old fuse box nor a full board without spare ways can offer.

If you plan to charge at home, it makes sense to replace the board first, or at the same time. We fit consumer units with spare ways and check your main fuse and meter tails, so your charger installer finds a suitable connection waiting rather than discovering a problem on the day.

  • Spare way for a home charger
  • Main fuse and tails checked
  • Board ready before the charger
  • Heavy loads properly protected
Getting to you

Reaching Washington from Brighton

Washington is a short run for us: west on the A27 to Shoreham, then up the A283 through Steyning, or along the A24 from Worthing if that is quicker on the day. For an urgent fault, a phone call often gets an installer out to you the same day; for a fixed price, your board photos by text are enough.

Ideally the board goes in first, or on the same day as the charger. That way the charger has a proper protected way and the installer is not left working around an outdated fuse box. We do the board work at fixed prices and leave a labelled spare way and clear test results for whoever fits your charger.

Usually not. From clear pictures of the fuse box, the meter and the cables running between them, we can give you a fixed price by text. If anything in the pictures is unclear, we ask for another one rather than guessing, so the figure you agree to is based on what is actually there.

Our 6 year guarantee covers our workmanship, meaning the way the new board was installed, connected and tested. The work is carried out by our own directly employed installers, never subcontractors, and we carry £5m public liability insurance while we are in your home.
