FAQs

Common Questions

Can't find your answer? Give us a call on 07940 071963.

Common signs in Corstorphine include wiring over 30 years old, frequent blown fuses, inadequate sockets for modern living, or a failed EICR. Many 1930s semis still have original cloth-covered cabling, while post-war bungalows often have 1950s–60s wiring that needs replacement.

A typical 3-bedroom 1930s semi in Corstorphine takes 5–7 working days. Post-war bungalows are usually quicker at 4–6 days, while larger modern family homes may take 7–9 days. We'll give you an accurate estimate after the initial survey.

Corstorphine 1930s semis often have original cloth-covered cables, wooden back boxes, inadequate earthing and consumer units with rewirable fuses. Many have had partial updates over the years, creating a mix of old and new wiring that needs a full rewire for safety and consistency.

Yes — a full rewire is the ideal time to add circuits for kitchen extensions, loft conversions or garden rooms. We can include all additional circuits in the same quote and certificate, saving you money compared to separate installations.

Some redecoration is typically needed where cables are chased into walls. In 1930s semis with plaster walls, we cut and chase neatly, fill all chases and keep dust to a minimum. The extent depends on your property's specific wall construction and finishes.

Yes — if only certain circuits or areas need updating, we can carry out a partial rewire. This is often cost-effective for properties where the kitchen or extension has been updated but the original part of the house retains old wiring.

You'll receive an Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) covering the full rewire scope. This is self-certified by us as a registered Part P contractor and is fully valid for insurance, mortgage lenders and property transactions across Edinburgh.
