    Benefits of rewiring your home

    Thames Valley Electricians in Bracknell are your local and trusted electricians who can help provide EICR’s and rewiring services to properties in Bracknell.

    If you are noticing signs of electrical faults in your home and think you may need a rewire it is important to speak with an electrician immediately. If the outcome is a rewire, you may then be asking yourself, when do I have the time to do it? Can I live in my home during a rewire? Will it be safe? Thames Valley Electricians are trusted electrician who can help you decide if a lived in rewire is possible for you.

    Can I live in my home during a Rewire?

    Living in your house during a rewire can be a stressful experience, however, with some carful planning and a clear mindset it can be done. With strong communication between the homeowner and electrician you will be able to build a plan on how to live in your home amongst the mess.  It is essential to tell your electrician you would like to remain in the property whilst the work is being carried out. This way your electrician will be able to give advice on safety precautions and let you know any no-go areas. 

    Rewiring a home is a complex project. Living in your home during this time may be uncomfortable and stressful, which is why it is recommended to leave the property during the process. Thames Valley Electricians in Bracknell understand that not everyone can leave their homes during a rewire, which is why we take care of our messes and will accommodate your living situation as best as we can. 

    The Process of a Rewire

    The process of a rewire is broken down into two main stages. The first stage is the messiest and most complex. This is when the cables and wiring are removed and the new circuits, cable and wiring is installed. During this stage floorboards will need to be lifted and walls may need to be channelled. 

    The second fix may take place after your home is plastered and the damages is rectified. This is when the fittings and switches are connected in preparation for the system going live. Once your system is live, you can be assured of a safe and compliant electrical system. A full installation on an average size home would typically take 6-10 days to complete. If you would like more information on the timeframe of a rewire in your home, Thames Valley Electricians would be happy to come out for a free no obligation quote.

      ​Fantastic experience! Luke and his guys rewired my entire house and were a pleasure to deal with. They were great communicators, punctual and finished the job right on schedule. The work was neat, tidy and professionally executed.

      Unlike other trades we had approached Luke responded the same day and arranged to come and assess what was needed for the repair and sent his estimate. Having booked to complete the works all was left in working order. I would strongly recommend him. Good job

      We recently had our bathroom rewired and couldn’t be happier with the service. Luke was incredibly accommodating from start to finish, taking the time to understand exactly what we wanted and making thoughtful suggestions along the way.

      I highly recommend Luke. He installed spotlights in our bedroom and dining room and did a great job. Professional, reliable, and very tidy, with excellent attention to detail. We’re really happy with the results and wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.

      Luke is great at communicating, explaining what the problem is and resolving it. We had already called out another electrician and had been quoted an astronomical price for the “problem”. Luke came round to provide a second opinion.

      Luke recently visited to investigate two faults, one involving a circuit breaker that had tripped and wouldn’t reset, diagnosed as a faulty switch which Luke replaced and the other involving underfloor heating that would not come on, diagnosed as a faulty thermostat control that Luke also replace
