WHY REWIRE?

An electrical cable, on an average, starts degrading after approximately 50 years in service. An older wiring system may not always be dangerous but poses a potential risk to fire. Safety is the only reason for you having your house rewired as electricity is dangerous for you and your loved ones. Therefore, home rewiring is one of the tasks that can not be overlooked

REWIRING YOUR HOME IN LEICESTERSHIRE

Home rewiring may be one of the most difficult tasks among all the maintenance tasks but is really vital for safety. Keeping this in mind, it is generally recommended to replace the cables or wires with new electrical installations after every 25 years. If the wires are sub-standard or installed in the wrong way, they can cause fire and electric shocks.

C & M Electricals has the solution to this problem. Our certified electricians do the rewiring of your home so that any potential problem related to it is eliminated and your wiring system is safe and certified. For this, a lot of time is spent on the preparation of the site of work so that work goes on smoothly and safely. This preparation includes lifting the floorboards, chasing the walls, sinking new sockets and then running the new cabling again to a new consumer unit. After completing the wiring, the floorboards are screwed or nailed. Back boxes are mounted after routing the cables properly. A capping over the cables is also installed so that it gives a neat look.
