What our customers say
Signs your fuse board needs replacing
Consumer units don't last forever. Whether your EICR recommended an upgrade or you've spotted the warning signs yourself, here's when a replacement is the right call.
Your EICR flagged it
Condition reports often recommend replacing the consumer unit. If your EICR came back with a C2 or an upgrade recommendation, we'll quote the work it asks for.
Rewireable fuses or an old board
Wooden-backed boards and rewireable fuse cartridges were standard decades ago. A modern board replaces them with proper circuit protection.
No RCD protection
Older boards protect the wiring, not the person. Upgrading adds RCD or RCBO protection that cuts the power in milliseconds if something goes wrong.
It keeps tripping, or never does
Nuisance tripping is frustrating, but a board that never trips is often worse. Both point to protection that no longer matches how you use the property.
You're adding circuits
EV charge points, extensions, new kitchens and heat pumps all need spare ways and capacity at the board. We upgrade so the new work is safe from day one.
Buying, selling or letting
Solicitors, lenders and letting agents increasingly ask for an up-to-date board. A certified upgrade removes the objection before it becomes one.
Every upgrade, done to current standards
Modern RCBO protection
Every circuit gets its own RCBO, so a fault on one circuit no longer plunges the whole property into darkness.
Surge protection fitted
Type 2 surge protection is fitted at the board as standard, protecting TVs, computers and everything else plugged in.
Earthing and bonding brought up to standard
We check and upgrade earthing and bonding so the new board is protecting a system that meets current regulations.
Tested, labelled and certified
Every circuit is tested on completion, the board is labelled, and you receive your electrical installation certificate.
