Key Factors That Affect Flat Rewiring Costs

There are many factors that affect the overall cost to of rewiring, and we’re here to make this as simple as possible.
When determining the cost of rewiring a flat, we consider several key factors:

  • Access — the ease of access to electrical wiring areas, including whether there are any obstructions.
  • Occupancy — whether the flat is occupied or vacant during the rewire job.
  • Property Type — the nature of the property, whether it’s a flat or another type of dwelling.
  • Position — the location of the flat, whether it’s a top, a middle, or a bottom consumer unit, and the type of building it’s in (e.g., detached, semi-detached, or terraced).
  • Building Structure — the construction material of the building, such as plasterboard, which is easier to work with, versus solid concrete, which can be more challenging and time-consuming.
  • Building Age and Features — the period and age of the building, including any delicate or decorative features like ornate cornices, high skirting boards, or finished floors that may require careful handling.
  • Electrical Plan — the details of the electrical system, such as alarm systems, including the types of fixtures and extras you choose. This includes decorative plug sockets, additional light fittings, or downlights.
  • Logistics — any logistical challenges, such as parking availability and the overall location of the flat.

We strive to offer the best value for high-quality work, ensuring your flat is safely and efficiently rewired without breaking the bank.

Working on existing wiring and electrical components can pose many dangers for unqualified hands, so this is not recommended. Faulty wiring and old wiring can lead to electrical fires, shocks, and other hazards. Additionally, any DIY house rewiring job must comply with the Government Competent Person Scheme, a requirement that only NICEIC-qualified specialists can fulfil.

Rewiring with additional safety equipment can increase the value of your flat by ensuring it meets current safety standards and modern electrical needs. While upgrading electrical systems and rewiring will pose additional costs in the beginning, it can make the property more attractive to potential buyers later.

Yes, any rewiring work must comply with current building regulations. These regulations ensure that each electrical installation is safe and meets national standards. Our professional electricians will ensure that your rewiring project adheres to all necessary regulations. We will also provide you with an electrical installation condition report for added peace of mind.

We provide certification for all rewiring work, confirming that it complies with the relevant regulations. Additionally, our electricians are certified and trained to meet the highest safety standards. Once our local electricians have completed the job, we will provide you with a final installation certification. This certification not only ensures compliance with current regulations but also offers peace of mind that your property is safe and up to code.

Yes, having public liability insurance is essential for any electrical work, including rewiring a flat. It provides protection in case of accidental damage or injury to clients or third parties resulting from the work performed.

Our total cost to rewire includes a fast and efficient service designed to minimise disruption to your daily routine. Beyond concerns like “How much to rewire a flat in Glasgow?”, many customers are also anxious about potential interruptions. Thankfully, our skilled team can complete a full rewire in just 1-2 days.

We can also handle smaller tasks like installing electrical sockets and light switches in just a few hours.

Furniture removal and cleanups are included in our services, so there are no extra costs. This ensures that your space is left tidy and free of debris after the rewiring is complete. We will vacuum, clear debris, and wipe down all surfaces, so you can enjoy a hassle-free experience.

However, we do offer a further professional builders’ clean after rewiring a flat. While this is usually not necessary, some customers choose this option to avoid any cleaning of their own.

Signs of poor wiring or faulty connections include frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering lights, discoloured or warm outlets, and a burning smell.

Our goal is to provide excellent service while ensuring the cost remains competitive.
