EICR Inspection

“I'm based in Colchester and have been trying to find a good electrician that I can trust to complete an EICR on my property, following a bad experience with another company. After initially speaking with Elise for a quote, I felt at ease and the service provided was excellent. Highly professional and trustworthy.”

Solar PV Installation

“Can I say a big thank you to you for such a great job. We had 24 panels over three aspects of our rather difficult roof - being 100 year old converted bungalow the roof tiles were a little bit of a pain. The team handled it brilliantly and the solar skirts really finished the install off beautifully.”

Emergency Callout

“Excellent Emergency Electrician over Xmas. I had a complicated issue with a solar inverter cutting the supply to the house. Smart attended and worked their way through the issue and made a temporary repair to get us through Christmas. Andre was fantastic - highly recommend.”

EICR Inspection

“Excellent service from Future Smart, I was able to get an electrical installation condition report for a house sale arranged to suit my timing. They did a very thorough inspection, discussed the result after. The report was issued promptly.”

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about full property rewiring in Essex

A typical 3-bedroom house rewire in Essex takes 5–7 working days. A 4–5 bedroom property usually takes 7–10 days. Larger homes, listed buildings, or properties with complex layouts may take longer. We provide a detailed project timeline during your free site survey and work efficiently to minimise disruption to your daily life.

Not necessarily. Many of our Essex customers stay in their homes during rewiring. We work room by room to keep as much of your property liveable as possible. For extensive rewires, some customers prefer to stay elsewhere temporarily — we'll advise you honestly based on your specific property and circumstances.

Costs vary depending on property size, age, complexity, and specific requirements. As a guide: a 2-bed flat typically ranges from £2,500–£4,000; a 3-bed house from £3,500–£6,000; a 4-bed house from £5,000–£8,500. We provide detailed, transparent fixed-price quotes with no hidden costs after a free site survey. All quotes include materials, labour, testing, certification, and building control notification.

Key warning signs include: old rubber or fabric-covered wiring (pre-1970s), round-pin sockets, a fuse box with rewirable fuses, persistent circuit tripping, flickering lights, burning smells, discoloured sockets or switches, frequent blown fuses, or if your property hasn't been rewired in over 25–30 years. If you're buying an older Essex property, an EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) will confirm whether rewiring is needed.

We include basic making good (filling, patching, and sanding) in all our rewire quotes. For full plastering and decorating, we can either include this in your quote or recommend trusted local tradespeople in Essex. We always aim to leave your property clean and tidy, and we protect floors and furniture throughout the work.

Yes, absolutely. Every full property rewire includes a comprehensive Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) compliant with BS 7671:2018+A2:2022 regulations. We also handle all Building Control notification as required by Part P of the Building Regulations. You'll receive full documentation — essential for insurance, mortgage purposes, and future property sales.

Electrical installations typically last 25–30 years with proper maintenance. If your property hasn't been rewired in this time, has old rubber or fabric-covered cables, an outdated fuse box, or you're experiencing frequent electrical issues, a rewire is strongly recommended. We recommend an EICR inspection every 10 years for owner-occupied properties and every 5 years for rental properties.

Yes, we offer partial rewiring services for specific areas, rooms, or circuits — ideal for extensions, loft conversions, or kitchen renovations. However, if your property has old wiring throughout, a full rewire is often more cost-effective and safer in the long term. We'll give you honest advice during the free survey.

Yes — a full rewire with up-to-date certification can significantly increase your property's value and saleability. Many mortgage lenders and insurers require evidence of a modern electrical installation. An outdated or unsafe electrical system can reduce your property's value or even prevent a sale. A rewire is one of the most impactful home improvements you can make.

No planning permission is required for a standard house rewire. However, the work must be notified to Building Control under Part P of the Building Regulations. As NAPIT-registered electricians, we are authorised to self-certify our work and handle all Building Control notification on your behalf — you don't need to do anything.

Yes — many insurers will refuse to cover properties with old or unsafe wiring, or will charge significantly higher premiums. Some insurers require evidence of a modern electrical installation as a condition of cover. A full rewire with certification resolves this issue and can actually reduce your insurance premiums. We can provide documentation your insurer requires.

Yes, all our electricians are NAPIT-approved and fully qualified to BS 7671:2018+A2:2022 standards. We carry full public liability insurance and provide comprehensive certification for all rewiring work. Our team has extensive experience rewiring all types of properties across Essex, from Victorian terraces to modern new builds.
