Do you offer both whole-house and partial rewiring?
Yes. WSH offers whole-house and partial rewiring. The existing installation and proposed changes are
assessed to define which circuits are replaced, what can remain and how the work is set out in the
quotation.
Can you tell whether my house needs a full rewire from photos?
Photos and an existing report can help with the first conversation, but they do not establish the
condition of concealed wiring. Where a site assessment is needed, we agree its purpose, timing and any
charge before arranging it.
Can we stay in the house while it is rewired?
Occupied-property arrangements are agreed in the quotation for your project. Tell us which rooms and
essential services need to stay in use, along with access constraints. Do not assume every room or
circuit can remain usable throughout the work.
Can you work alongside our builder?
Coordination with your builder and the electrical work stages are agreed in the quotation. Share the
programme and contact arrangements so first fix, second fix and the responsibilities of other trades can
be considered together.
Does a rewire quote include plastering and decoration?
Opening-up, making good, plastering and decoration are not automatically included in the electrical
price. The quotation records the agreed inclusions, exclusions and who is responsible for each part.
Can lighting, data and smart controls be planned with the rewire?
Yes, these can be considered as part of the electrical brief while cable routes and room layouts are
being planned. The agreed scope identifies the fittings, data points and controls included, with
compatibility and everyday manual operation considered before products are chosen.
Who carries out testing and certification?
Electricians working for WSH carry out the electrical work, testing and certification. We confirm the
electrical scope and any required specialist responsibilities before work starts, including the records
to be provided at handover.
How much does house rewiring cost, and how long does it take?
The quotation and programme depend on the circuits, installation condition, point quantities, fittings,
access, occupation and other work at the property. Whole-house and partial rewires use a written project
quotation; small-job hourly rates do not price the rewire. Scope and work stages are agreed for the
property before work starts.
