Northampton grew fast in the Victorian shoe-trade years, and the terraces that went up then are still a big part of the town. Far Cotton, Kingsthorpe, Abington and the streets around the town centre are full of them. They are good, solid houses, but the wiring in them has usually been patched by several owners over several decades, and patched wiring is what eventually starts tripping.
John rewires homes across the town, from those terraces to the post-war semis in Duston and the newer family houses out towards Wootton. He surveys first and tells you honestly whether you need a full rewire, a partial one or just a new consumer unit. Cables go into the walls, the gaps are made good and you get an electrical certificate with the work notified to Building Control.
Survey before the sell

Certified and notified
A full certificate at the end, with Building Control notified through NAPIT.
Your questions, answered
How much does a rewire cost in Northampton?
It depends on the size of the house, how many circuits you need and how easy the access is. That is why the survey is free. You get a clear written quote with a fixed price rather than a number over the phone.
Can I stay in the house?
Usually yes. The work goes room by room and power and hot water stay on where the job allows. Empty houses are quicker, so if you are between tenants or moving in, say so.
Do I need a full rewire or just a new board?
Testing tells you. If the cables are sound, a new consumer unit may be all you need. John will not sell you a rewire your house does not want.
