Full & Partial Rewires
Future-proof electrical installations designed for modern living.
Full & partial house rewiring for renovations, period properties, extensions & family homes across Taunton, Somerset & the surrounding areas - carefully designed around the property and the way you live.
Considered rewiring
Designed for how you actually live.
Whether renovating a period property or creating a contemporary home, we carefully redesign your electrical installation to meet modern demands while respecting the character of the building.
As specialists in house rewiring in Taunton, we approach every full house rewire & partial rewire as a design exercise rather than a cable replacement job. Circuit arrangements, socket positions & lighting points are planned room by room, so the finished installation suits the way the property is genuinely used.
From electrical rewiring across Somerset for family homes & extensions, to sensitive period property rewiring where original fabric must be protected, each property rewiring project is planned around modern circuit requirements, future capacity & the standard of finish expected in a considered home.
Rewires we deliver
Every rewire is its own project.
01
Full House Rewires
A full house rewire in Taunton can involve replacing outdated wiring & redesigning circuits, sockets, switches & lighting so the wider installation suits modern requirements.
02
Renovation Projects
Electrical work coordinated with builders, architects & interior designers - designing sockets, lighting, controls & infrastructure properly while the renovation is under way.
03
Listed Buildings
Careful, discreet cable routes designed to protect the character of the property, carried out with any required permissions in place.
04
Home Extensions
New circuits, lighting & sockets integrated properly with the existing installation, whose condition & capacity may first need assessing.
Scope
Full rewire or partial rewire?
When a full rewire makes sense
Not every property requires a complete rewire. A full rewire may be appropriate where the existing installation needs widespread replacement, or where a major renovation provides the opportunity to redesign the whole system coherently.
When a partial rewire is enough
A partial rewire can be the right answer where work is limited to particular rooms, circuits, an extension or a defined area of the property. The right approach is determined after assessing the existing installation & the scope of the project - usually beginning with electrical testing & certification.
Lifestyle
Designed around the way you live.
Design thinking
Planning beyond the wiring.
A well-planned rewire is an opportunity to shape how the whole home works, rather than replacing cables like for like.
Socket positions
Power where furniture, appliances & daily routines actually need it - not simply where cables already run.
Lighting layouts
Considered circuits, switching & control, developed with our lighting design & installation team.
Kitchen & utility
Appliance circuits, island power, extraction & task lighting planned with the kitchen design.
Home office & connectivity
Dedicated power & data provision where people genuinely work, study & connect.
Exterior power & lighting
Garden, garage, outbuilding & approach lighting designed in rather than added later.
EV charging & energy
Capacity & routes provided for solar, battery storage & EV charging.
Smart home technology
Infrastructure for smart home installation so control can be added now or in future.
Future capacity
Distribution planned with headroom, alongside any consumer unit upgrade the installation requires.
Process
A calm, considered four-step rewire.
01
Survey
We assess the existing installation, the property itself & how you use it - understanding the building, its history & your requirements before anything is specified.
02
Design
A room-by-room electrical design covering circuits, socket positions & lighting, drawn up alongside your architect, builder or interior designer where relevant.
03
Installation
Delivered by our own electricians, carefully coordinated with other trades, with the property protected & the work sequenced around the wider programme.
04
Testing & Certification
Completed work is inspected, tested & certified, with digital records for your home file. See our electrical testing & certification service.
Rewiring questions
Common questions about house rewiring.
How do I know if my home needs rewiring?
Concerns such as recurring faults, damaged accessories or an installation that no longer suits how the property is used should be assessed professionally rather than assumed. An electrical inspection or EICR establishes the actual condition of the existing installation. Age alone does not determine whether rewiring is required.
What is the difference between a full & partial rewire?
A full house rewire replaces & redesigns the wiring throughout the property. A partial rewire is limited to specific rooms, circuits, extensions or areas where work is genuinely needed.
Can you rewire a period or listed property?
Yes. We take a conservation-led approach to older & character properties, planning discreet cable routes & minimising intervention into original fabric. Where consents or approvals are required for a listed building, these must be in place before work proceeds.
Should I rewire while renovating my home?
A major renovation is often a sensible moment to review sockets, lighting, circuits & future requirements, because access is already available & electrical design can be coordinated with the wider works.
Does a rewire include testing & certification?
Completed electrical installation work is inspected, tested & certified appropriately. See electrical testing & certification.
Do you carry out house rewiring across Somerset?
Yes. We undertake full & partial rewiring projects in Taunton, across Somerset & the surrounding areas.
Plan a rewire
Bring the electrics up to the standard of the rest of your home.
Every rewire begins with a careful site visit & an honest conversation about what the property needs, whether in Taunton, across Somerset or the surrounding areas. There is no obligation - just clear advice.
