Electrical Safety Upgrades During House Rewiring
In addition to replacing outdated wiring, a house rewire presents an excellent opportunity to upgrade your home’s electrical safety features.
DH Electrical Services can install various safety upgrades during your rewiring project, such as Residual Current Devices (RCDs), which protect against electric shocks and reduce the risk of electrical fires by quickly cutting off power when an imbalance in the electrical current is detected.
We can also integrate hardwired smoke and heat detectors into your new electrical system, providing an early warning system in case of a fire and ensuring your family’s safety. Surge protection is another valuable upgrade that safeguards your appliances and electronics from damaging electrical surges, extending their lifespan.
Furthermore, our team will install a new consumer unit with modern, high-quality circuit breakers that offer better protection against overloads and short circuits compared to older fuse boxes, enhancing your home’s overall electrical safety.
Rewiring for Home Renovations and Extensions
If you’re planning a home renovation or extension, it’s crucial to ensure that your electrical system can accommodate the increased demand. DH Electrical Services offers bespoke rewiring services for home improvements, tailoring our approach to your specific needs.
For kitchen rewires, we can install additional electrical outlets and dedicated circuits for appliances like ovens, hobs, and refrigerators, ensuring your new kitchen meets current regulations and functions efficiently.
When it comes to bathroom rewires, our team is well-versed in the strict electrical safety requirements necessary due to the presence of water. We’ll install appropriate lighting, ventilation, and safety features, such as shaver sockets and pull-cord switches.
If you’re adding an extension to your home, our electricians will design and install the wiring, seamlessly integrating it with your existing electrical system while adhering to all safety standards and regulations.

North West House Rewires - Frequently Asked Questions
The duration of a house rewire depends on the size and complexity of your property. On average, a full rewire for a three-bedroom home takes approximately 5-7 days. However, our team will provide you with a more accurate timeline based on your specific requirements.
Some minor redecoration may be necessary after a house rewire, as we may need to access wiring through walls and ceilings. However, our team will take care to minimise any damage and leave your property clean and tidy upon completion.
The lifespan of electrical wiring varies depending on factors such as the quality of the original installation and the level of usage. As a general rule, if your home’s wiring is more than 25 years old, it may be time to consider a rewire to ensure safety and compliance with current standards.
