Wolverton was built for the railway works, and the grid of terraced streets that came with it is the oldest planned housing anywhere in Milton Keynes. Those terraces are solid, but they were never designed around electricity, let alone around the number of things a modern household plugs in. Most have been wired and rewired several times over, often in a hurry.
John works in these houses often. Solid walls, cellars, shared party walls and rear extensions all shape where cables can sensibly go, and knowing that in advance is what keeps the job tidy. Whether you need a full rewire, a new consumer unit, an EICR before you let the house out or just some sockets that work properly, you get a clear price first and a certificate at the end.
Terraced streets understood
Solid walls and party walls change where cables run. We plan for that from the start.
Old work traced
Several generations of wiring is normal here. We find out what is really there.
Landlords covered
EICRs and remedial work for the many rented terraces in the town.
Your questions, answered
Are Wolverton terraces harder to rewire?
A bit. Solid walls mean more chasing and cellars or under-floor voids change the sensible routes. It is very doable, it just wants planning rather than improvising.
Do you do EICRs for rented houses in Wolverton?
Yes. A lot of the terraces are let, and the law says the fixed wiring is inspected at least every five years with a copy to the tenants. John tests, codes the findings clearly and quotes for anything that fails.
Can you add sockets without a full rewire?
Often yes. It depends on the condition of the existing circuits, which John checks first. If the wiring is sound there is no reason to replace it just to add sockets.
