What Should You Prepare Before a House Rewire?
Good preparation can help the rewiring work run more smoothly. The required preparation will depend on the property, its construction and the planned electrical work.
Clear Working Areas
Move furniture and personal items away from walls, floors and other areas where electricians may need access.
Protect Valuables
Keep valuable or delicate belongings away from working areas to help protect them from dust and accidental damage.
Plan Socket Locations
Consider where you use appliances and whether additional or repositioned sockets would make the new electrical layout more practical.
Review Lighting Needs
Think about existing lighting points, switches and areas where improved lighting could be useful before installation starts.
What Can Affect Your Rewire Preparation?
Property Access
Limited access to walls, floors or ceilings may require additional preparation before new wiring can be installed.
Furniture Position
Large furniture can restrict working areas, so rooms may need to be cleared before electrical work begins.
Wall Construction
Different wall types can affect how electricians access and route new cables throughout the property.
Floor Coverings
Carpets, flooring and other coverings may need consideration where access is required beneath or around them.
Existing Electrical Equipment
Older electrical accessories and equipment may need to be identified before the new installation is planned.
Room Usage
Consider how each room is used so socket, lighting and electrical requirements can be discussed before work starts.
Access to the Consumer Unit
The consumer unit should remain accessible so it can be assessed and worked on safely when required.
Temporary Disruption
Electrical supplies may need to be switched off during parts of the project, so plan around temporary interruptions where necessary.
