House Rewiring Services in Bristol
Full and partial rewiring for homes of all ages. NICEIC approved, fully certified, and carried out with minimal disruption to your daily life.
What Does a House Rewire Involve?
A house rewire involves replacing all the electrical wiring, accessories, and the consumer unit in your property to bring it up to the latest BS 7671 wiring regulations. This is one of the most important safety upgrades you can make to an older home, eliminating the risk of electrical fires, shocks, and other hazards caused by deteriorating cables.
At MB Electrical, we carry out both full and partial rewires across Bristol. A full rewire replaces every cable, socket, switch, and the fuse board throughout the entire property. A partial rewire targets specific areas or circuits that have been identified as faulty or non-compliant during an inspection, leaving the rest of the installation intact where it meets current standards.
Many of Bristol's older properties — including the Victorian and Edwardian terraces found in areas like Clifton, Redland, and Bishopston — still have original or outdated wiring that presents a genuine safety risk. Our rewiring service covers everything from initial survey and design through to final testing and certification. We route cables carefully to minimise damage to period features and issue an Electrical Installation Certificate on completion so your property is fully compliant.
MB Electrical holds NICEIC Approved Contractor status — the highest tier of NICEIC accreditation. Unlike the Domestic Installer scheme held by many electricians, Approved Contractor status requires regular assessment of competence across domestic, commercial, and industrial electrical work, giving you confidence that every job meets the highest professional standards.
Signs Your Home May Need Rewiring
Our Rewiring Process
Survey & Quote
We visit your property to assess the existing installation, discuss your requirements, and provide a detailed fixed-price quote with no hidden costs.
Planning & Preparation
We agree on socket and switch positions, lighting layouts, and any special requirements. We cover floors and furniture to protect your home before work begins.
First Fix Wiring
New cables are routed through the property — under floors, through walls, and into the loft space. Backboxes are fitted for all sockets and switches.
Consumer Unit Installation
A modern consumer unit with RCD protection is installed, replacing your old fuse box to provide the highest level of safety.
Second Fix
Sockets, switches, and light fittings are connected and the installation is completed, ready for your plasterer to make good any chases.
Testing & Certification
Every circuit is thoroughly tested and inspected. You receive an Electrical Installation Certificate and the work is registered with the local authority through NICEIC.

He's always been friendly, professional and trustworthy and while not a budget option (never a good idea in my experience), is 100% worth his weight in gold for piece of mind."
