What sits behind the meter cupboard door

In a hamlet the size of Wickstreet, homes are typically rural properties that have been extended, modernised and rewired in stages. We often find boards that were adequate for the house as it once was but struggle now, with several circuits doubled up on one fuse, or new circuits added through a separate box whenever an extension went on.

Our fixed price covers removing the old board, fitting a metal consumer unit with surge protection, testing every circuit and certifying the work. If testing shows a circuit needs more than a new board can fix, we explain what we found and price it separately before going any further.

  • Add-on boxes removed

Timing the board change with building work

Rural homes are often renovated in phases: a new kitchen one year, an extension or loft room the next. Each phase usually adds circuits, and a full or outdated fuse box can hold up the electrician just as the builders need power. Changing the board early in the project, with spare ways for what comes next, keeps the later stages simpler.

Tell us what you are planning when you send photos. The board can be sized for the finished house, larger projects suit a full RCBO unit of 14 to 16 ways from £795, and spare ways are left labelled and ready. Notification under Part P gives you paperwork for the project file.

Finding Wickstreet

We reach Wickstreet through the lanes of Arlington parish. Small hamlets can be hard to find, so we confirm directions with you when booking. Photos of the board let us agree a date that works with your builders. An urgent fault calls for a phone call, and we will look to come out that same day.

Usually before, or early in the build. The new board gives the extension's circuits somewhere protected to connect to, and the builders can work from properly protected supplies. If the board has to move as part of the works, we can relocate it at the same visit for an extra £250.

Yes. A properly installed board with labelled spare ways is easy for any qualified electrician to add to, and they certify their own new circuits. You keep our Electrical Installation Certificate, which shows the board and the existing circuits were tested and found in good order before anything new was added.

Start by sending photos, which we turn into a fixed price. Once you accept, we offer dates that fit around your project. If your builders have a firm start date, mention it early. Most boards take four to six hours, so the work rarely holds up other trades for long.
