Does your Caerphilly house actually need rewiring?

Age on its own is not the answer, and neither is the look of the fuse board. What decides it is the condition of the wiring itself: the state of the insulation, whether the circuits have a protective conductor throughout, whether anything has been extended badly over the years, and what an inspection finds when the circuits are actually tested.

That inspection is an EICR, and its codes are worth understanding before anyone quotes you. C1 means danger present and C2 means potentially dangerous — either makes the report unsatisfactory, and so does FI, which means further investigation is needed. C3 is a recommendation and the report is still satisfactory. "It came back with C3s so it needs rewiring" is a sales line, not a finding.

Plenty of houses that get quoted for a full rewire need something much smaller: a consumer unit change, one circuit replaced, or a fault traced and corrected. A rewire is disruptive and expensive enough that it is worth knowing which of those you are actually looking at first.

Frequently asked questions.

What services do you offer?

Absolutely! We understand that Electrical emergencies can happen at any time. That's why we offer 24/7 emergency Electrical services. Whether it's a tripped RCD or a faulty consumer unit, you can rely on us to respond quickly.

How old does wiring have to be before it needs replacing?

There is no age at which wiring automatically fails. Rubber-insulated cable and old rewireable fuse boards are genuine warning signs, but the decision comes from testing the circuits, not from the year the house was built. An EICR tells you what condition the installation is actually in.

My EICR came back with C3 codes — do I need a rewire?

No. A C3 is a recommendation for improvement and a report whose worst finding is C3 is still satisfactory. Only C1, C2 or FI make a report unsatisfactory. It is worth reading the codes before agreeing to anything major.

Which villages around Caerphilly do you cover?

Caerphilly town plus Bedwas, Trethomas, Llanbradach, Abertridwr, Senghenydd, Machen, Ystrad Mynach and Nelson. Work in any of them that falls in a kitchen, bathroom or outdoors is notifiable to Caerphilly County Borough Council — we self-certify it, so you do not have to.
