What a Westham board is wired to
Old walls, newer wiring, and everything between
Westham mixes very old buildings near the church and castle with twentieth century houses and bungalows on the roads leading away from the centre. In the older properties, wiring has usually been redone at least once, often in stages, so the board can be fed by cables of different ages. That is exactly why we test every circuit, not just the new board.
If testing turns up a problem on a circuit, such as low insulation resistance in an old cable, we explain it plainly and price any repair separately before doing it. Nothing extra happens without your agreement, and the board price you were quoted stays fixed.
- Mixed age cabling identified
- Insulation tested circuit by circuit
- Faults explained before any repair
- Quoted board price stays fixed

Care inside older and listed homes
Some of Westham's oldest homes are listed, and older cottages often have thick walls, low beams or panelling worth protecting. Swapping a board in the same place is normally a straightforward job inside a listed building, but new cable routes or visible trunking are a different matter. If your home is listed, it is sensible to check with Wealden District Council before anything visible changes.
Our approach is to use the routes the old wiring already takes, keep the new board where the old one was, and fit a compact metal enclosure that sits neatly. Where moving the board really is the better option, that costs £250 on top of a new board, and we talk it through with you first.
- Board kept in its current spot
- Old routes used, no fresh chasing
- Compact metal enclosure
- Relocation only by agreement, add £250

Westham questions
Asked in Westham
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691For a like for like swap in the same position, usually not, because nothing about the building's character changes. Consent questions come up when cables are rerouted through historic fabric or equipment is moved somewhere visible. The council's conservation officer is the right person to ask if you are unsure, and we are happy to describe the work so you can explain it to them.
Very often, yes. Older homes collect separate fused switches, timers and small add on boxes over the years. Where it is safe and sensible, we bring those circuits into the new consumer unit so everything is protected and labelled in one place. Anything that needs to stay separate, such as some immersion or heater controls, we tidy and label.
Usually. A modern consumer unit is often wider than an old fuse box but shallower, so we check the space, the wall it is fixed to and any cupboard door before we start. In an older cottage the board may sit on a timber backing or in an alcove, which we work with rather than cutting into the wall.
