Wick homes
Semis, terraces and their later alterations
Much of Wick is twentieth century housing: semis and terraces alongside houses and bungalows from the same decades. Over sixty or seventy years these homes have usually been through at least one rewire or partial rewire, a new kitchen or two and perhaps an extension, each of which leaves its mark on the fuse box.
The usual picture is a board from the 1980s or 1990s with a single RCD, or none, and circuits that have been extended by various hands. Splitting the circuits across two RCDs, from £425, brings the home up to date, though RCBOs on every circuit, from £625, are the better choice where trips have been a regular nuisance.

Homes with many owners
Several owners, several electricians, one fuse box
Where a house has passed through several owners, electrical work may have been done by many different people over the decades, not all of them qualified. Typical signs are extra sockets spurred from odd places, cables buried in walls without protection, and earthing and bonding left behind when everything else in the house was modernised.
That is why every board change includes a full test. It gives you an honest record of the home's condition, whether you have just moved in or have lived here for decades. Anything we find beyond the board is explained and priced separately, so you decide what happens next.
- DIY additions identified
- Earthing and bonding brought up to date
- Findings explained before any extra work
- Every result recorded on your certificate

Wick questions
Asked in Wick
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Start with a test of the whole installation. If the board is old, booking a replacement means the test comes included and the most important issue is dealt with at the same time. If the board itself is fine, a standalone EICR from £175 gives you a full picture of what was done and what, if anything, needs putting right.
That pattern points to earth leakage from several appliances adding up, or to one appliance with a developing fault. A single RCD sees the combined leakage of everything it protects. Spreading circuits across two RCDs helps, and an RCBO board, where each circuit has its own residual current protection, usually puts an end to it. We test before suggesting anything.
Yes, if you can leave a key or have a neighbour let us in. Expect to be without power for most of the four to six hours, so keep fridge and freezer doors shut and move anything delicate if you are worried. When you get home everything is working, labelled and tested, and the certificate is in your inbox within 48 hours.
