Signs I need a rewire electrician Brighton.

If you’re ever concerned about the electrical wiring at your property. Don’t hesitate to give the team at Oval Electrical a call. We’ll give you our expert advice and arrange an initial call out to investigate. We often get calls from clients who notice outlets and sockets becoming loose from the wall or electrical wiring coming through gaps in light fixtures.  

Some typical signs which could indicate a rewire might be needed include flickering lights, electrical humming sound, outlets hot to the touch or frequently tripping circuit breakers.

Could outdated wiring be a problem?

Yes! Older electrical wiring, especially if wiring is 25-30 years old is a major safety concern. Over time electrical wiring can become loose, outer insulation can wear away but most importantly, outdated wiring can fail to meet current safety standards.

Oval Electrical can quickly establish the quality of electrical cabling at your home in Brighton and give you recommendations on next steps.

What happens during a rewire?

A rewire is essentially removing outdated and damaged electrical wiring. As the majority of cabling is concealed behind walls, flooring and the ceiling, it can get a little messy. As experienced rewire electricians, we work efficiently to keep the project moving. Alongside the cabling, outdated outlets and sockets are removed too. On some house rewire projects, we have had to upgrade outdated fuse boxes too.  

New electrical cabling and the back boxes for modern outlets and sockets are laid. Once plastering work is completed, all finishing is completed. After a series of intense and compulsory testing, we issue clients with an EIC to confirm work carried out by a competent professional and to confirm compliance with BS7671.
