When the building is older than anything electrical
A hamlet this size is made up of a handful of cottages, farmhouses and larger houses, many built long before mains electricity reached the countryside. Their wiring has arrived in stages: a first installation, later rewires, then kitchens, bathrooms and heating controls. The fuse box often sits wherever the original supply came in, sometimes a cupboard, sometimes a porch or an outbuilding.
Old or newer, every house gets a board built to one modern standard, covering each circuit with RCD or RCBO protection, adding Type 2 surge protection, then testing the installation in full. Dual RCD boards start at £425, and full RCBO boards, which suit larger or extended homes, from £625.
- Boards in porches and outbuildings replaced

Specified for WoolbedingHistoric fabric, modern protection
Historic fabric, modern protection
Old walls, new board, minimal disturbance
Woolbeding sits within the South Downs National Park, and some of the older buildings in and around the hamlet are listed. A straight consumer unit swap normally reuses the existing cables and position, so it rarely touches historic fabric. Where new cable routes are needed, or the board has to move, we plan them with you first so you can check whether consent is required.
Planning and listed building matters in the national park come under the South Downs National Park Authority, so if your home is listed and you want the board relocated, which adds £250, a quick word with them first is sensible. We favour existing routes, floor voids or neat surface runs, and explain each option.
- Existing cable routes reused where possible
- Relocations planned before any work
- Neat surface runs where needed
- Making good discussed beforehand
Getting to you
Getting to Woolbeding
From the centre of Midhurst, Woolbeding is barely a mile and a quarter. We reach it through Midhurst and never add a travel charge. We work out your fixed price from a few pictures of the consumer unit and meter, and you then pick whichever day suits. A board that is burnt, crackling or refusing to reset needs a call straight away, and we then aim to be out that same day.

Woolbeding questions
Asked in Woolbeding
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Usually not for a like for like swap in the same position, because nothing historic is altered. Moving the board or running new cables through old walls is different and may need listed building consent. We will set out exactly what the work involves, so you can confirm with the planning authority before we book a date.
It can, if the outbuilding is dry and the board is properly enclosed, and sometimes it is the only sensible place because that is where the supply arrives. If you would rather have it in the house, we look at where the meter and incoming cable are and quote the relocation, which adds £250 to a board change.
We test every circuit before connecting it. Older wiring that passes those tests works perfectly well on a modern board. If a circuit fails, for example because its insulation has broken down, we explain the result and the options before going any further. We will not connect a circuit we believe to be unsafe.
