Choose Between a Partial or a Full House Rewire

Partial Rewire – If half or most of your electrical system is in good condition, a partial rewire may be a cost-effective solution for you. We can upgrade or replace specific parts of your electrical system to enhance its efficiency and safety, especially if you have outdated wiring in a particular room or if a part of it has been damaged by water or fire during renovations. If you’re unsure about which part of your electrical system needs improvement, please contact us, and we’ll be more than happy to help.

Full House Rewire – If your electrical system is beginning to show its age or you haven’t had a rewire in the past 25 to 30 years, it may be time to consider a full house rewire. This process can reduce the risks of faulty connections, electrical shocks, and fires, ensuring the safety of you and your family. We can rewire your home at competitive rates while adhering to all safety procedures, guaranteeing that your wiring and electrical system remain safe for many years to come.

Signs that your House Needs an Urgent Rewire

Some common signs that may indicate the need for an urgent rewire include frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering or dimming lights, and outdated or damaged wiring. If you notice any of these issues, you should get in touch with one of our experts. Generally, houses should be rewired every 20-30 years, depending on the age and condition of the electrical system. If you are unsure about the condition of your wires, we can inspect your home’s wiring to ensure that it is up to code and functioning correctly, ensuring a safe living environment for you and your family.

How much does a House Rewire Cost?

A full house rewire cost can vary significantly, depending on several factors. These factors include the size of the property – larger homes generally require more work, materials, and time, as well as the property’s age. Additionally, if you wish to add new, modern lighting while rewiring your home, this will also influence the overall cost.

On average, our full house rewire cost ranges from £2,500 to £12,500, with most homeowners spending between £3,500 and £5,500.

We take pride in providing high-quality services at affordable prices. Please contact us for a free, tailored quote that fits your property and budget.

The Electrical Rewiring Process

We begin with a detailed inspection of the existing wiring, during which our experienced electricians assess its condition and identify any potential hazards. Next, we create a customised plan for the rewiring, focusing on efficiency and minimising disruptions to your home.

During our next visit, we will carefully remove outdated or damaged wiring to make way for new, high-quality wires that meet today’s safety regulations. Once the cables are replaced and securely installed, we connect them to outlets, switches, and your breaker box. To finish, our team conducts rigorous testing on the new system to ensure everything is working correctly and safely.

To prepare, we kindly ask that you clear access to key areas like outlets, switches, and your breaker box.

It’s not necessary to vacate your home, however, staying elsewhere may be more convenient due to the disruption and potential power outages during the house rewiring process.

The duration of the project will vary depending on whether you are opting for a partial or full house rewiring service. On average, a full house rewire typically takes between 3 to 8 days, depending on the size and complexity of the property. Our goal is to minimise disruption to your daily life by carefully planning the project and providing efficient solutions.

Generally, a house should be rewired every 25 to 30 years. However, this can vary based on the condition of the existing wiring and any previous upgrades or maintenance performed.

Improves Safety – The most important benefit of electrical rewiring is that it eliminates any doubts about electrical issues or problems. You are also more likely to find cheaper home insurance if you show that you have regularly serviced your cables.


Increases Property Value – 
Rewiring a house can significantly increase your home sale value. In some cases, it could be increased by hundreds, or even thousands if it has been signed off by an inspector. If you’re planning to sell your property, consider updating the wiring to make it more appealing to potential buyers. Outdated systems can be a turn-off for many buyers.


Modernises Your Home – 
After getting an electrical rewiring service for their property, clients may notice that the new system has increased capacity to handle all their modern appliances and electronics. Many older homes were initially wired with a 60-amp service, a threshold that cannot handle several modern appliances running simultaneously. Modern cable upgrades the capacity to handle 100 amps or more.

Rewiring a house reduces the risk of faulty electrical systems by replacing old, hazardous, and non-compliant components, such as cables, to make your home a safer place. This procedure helps reduce the risk of electrical shocks, faults, and fires as well as minimises the possibility of power outages. Updating your home’s electrical system can also help you save money on your bills, as the system becomes more efficient.

Paul turned up promptly to view the job required and issued a written quotation within two days.

The team have done an excellent job including putting all the carpets back in place, tidying up, and vacuuming everywhere, and even shampooing the carpets were required to bring them back to their original condition. He and his team are hard-working, working 8 am till 6 pm every day to complete the job. Paul and his team are very competent; therefore I would highly recommend them to carry out any electrical work.

Goodwill Electrical are a truly skilled and friendly team, who worked continuously to complete the works and were very respectful of the property and contents. During the quotation visit, I was not sure of best ways to achieve some aspects of what was wanted or needed throughout my 1930’s semi. Paul explained options and gave informative advice. Excellent workmanship and very clean and tidy after the job was finished.

What a like about Paul is his kind disposition and willingness to help with the urgency of the situation as well as his professionalism and good manners. He was loyal to his quote throughout the job and there were no “hidden extras”. His communication about the nature of the work involved was excellent. He was on time every day.

There are not enough words to express how pleased I am to have found him. I will call him again for any future jobs.

I asked Paul to check the wiring in my house after I was told by a different electrician that we would need a full rewire. Paul told us that we don’t need a rewire and that our electrics are absolutely fine. I’m so glad we checked with Paul as this would have been one very expensive mistake if not! He also didn’t charge us anything for the call out after seeing that nothing was wrong with the electrics. If we ever do have any problems we definitely know who to call now though.

Thanks again Paul.

We required a hard wiring inspection to be done urgently on our property. I am so pleased I found Goodwill Electrical when I did a search. I did an online enquiry and Paul got back to me straightaway to discuss the work, a quote and date.

After completing the inspection and the remedial work required, they have now also fitted a car charger for us.

We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Goodwill Electrical. They are prompt, courteous and professional and we will certainly use them again without hesitation.

I’m now much more knowledgeable about what is involved in fitting these devices and the price and work involved……much more than I anticipated.

Thank you for your help and advice, I’m much clearer now on what’s needed going forward.
