Gloucester's Victorian terraces, the long rows around Tredworth, Barton and Kingsholm in particular, are some of the most common rewires we carry out. Many still have their original fabric or rubber-coated cabling behind the plaster, or a fuse box with old rewireable fuses that gives no real protection at all. We go through the property room by room before we start, agreeing exactly where every socket, switch and light should sit.
Once the plan is agreed, we protect your floors, chase walls cleanly and make good behind us, so a typical three-bed terrace can usually still be lived in while we work. Every circuit is tested and certified, the work is notified to Building Control, and you finish with a new consumer unit and the full paperwork for your records, whether that is peace of mind, a sale or a mortgage requirement.
Built for terraced housing
We know Gloucester's Victorian terraces well: how they are built, where the old cabling usually runs, and how to chase and make good with minimal disruption.
Live-in wherever possible
We work room by room and keep power on overnight where we can, so a rewire need not mean moving out of your Gloucester home.
Fully certified and notified
Every circuit tested to the current regulations, certified under our NAPIT registration and notified to Building Control.
Your questions, answered
How much does a full rewire cost in Gloucester?
Most typical three-bed rewires in Gloucester cost between £3,500 and £7,000, with a partial rewire usually less. Every terrace is different, so you get one exact fixed written price before any work starts.
Do all the Victorian terraces in Gloucester need a full rewire?
Not always. We inspect first, and sometimes a partial rewire of the oldest circuits plus a new consumer unit is enough. We never recommend more work than the property genuinely needs.
How long does a rewire of a Gloucester terrace take?
Around one to two weeks for a typical three-bed home, depending on size and access. You get a clear day-by-day plan before we start so you know exactly what to expect.
