Why upgrade?

An older consumer unit is not automatically unsafe, but it may lack the protection and reliability available from a modern installation. Upgrading can provide individual circuit protection, surge protection and clearer fault isolation, helping prevent one problem from affecting several circuits.

Efficient installation, minimal disruption

Most domestic consumer unit replacements can be completed within a day, depending on the condition of the existing installation and any faults identified during testing. Circuits are clearly labelled and the work area is left clean and tidy.

Consumer unit upgrade FAQs

How much does a consumer unit upgrade cost?

The price depends on the number of circuits, the condition of the existing installation and whether any faults or additional work are identified. We provide a clear written quotation after reviewing photos or completing a site survey.

How long will my power be switched off?

Most domestic consumer unit replacements require the power to be off for several hours. The exact time depends on the size and condition of the installation, and this will be discussed before work begins.

Do I need a full rewire as well?

Not necessarily. Electrical testing will help determine the condition of the existing wiring. If any faults or remedial work are identified, these will be explained and quoted before additional work is carried out.

Will I receive certification?

Yes. The installation will be inspected and tested, with the appropriate electrical certification provided on completion.
