Does Your Home Need Rewired?
It's not always obvious when a home needs rewiring. Older electrical installations can continue working while no longer providing the level of safety, protection or capacity expected in a modern home.
Here are some common signs that it may be time to have your home's electrics professionally assessed.
Old Fuse Box
Older fuse boxes or consumer units can be a sign that the electrical installation hasn't been upgraded for many years. Modern consumer units offer additional protective measures that may not be present in older installations.
Old Wiring
Older cable types, deteriorating wiring or an electrical installation of unknown age may warrant further investigation. The age of the wiring alone doesn't automatically mean a full rewire is required, but its condition should be properly assessed.
No RCD Protection
RCD protection provides additional protection against electric shock. Older electrical installations may have limited or no RCD protection, which can be a sign that the installation would benefit from further assessment or upgrading.
Not Enough Sockets
Homes built decades ago weren't designed around the number of electrical appliances we use today. Too few sockets and heavy reliance on extension leads can be a sign that the electrical installation no longer suits the needs of the household.
Frequent Electrical Problems
Repeatedly tripping circuits, flickering lights, buzzing accessories, damaged sockets or other recurring electrical problems should be investigated rather than simply ignored or repeatedly reset.
Bought an Older Property?
If you've recently purchased an older home and don't know the age, history or condition of the electrical installation, having it assessed can give you a much clearer understanding of what — if anything — needs upgraded.
What's Included in a House Rewire?
Every home is different. We'll assess the existing electrical installation, discuss how you use the property and provide a clear scope based on the work your home actually requires.

Frequently Asked Questions
Some of the questions Glasgow homeowners ask us about domestic rewiring and electrical upgrades.
How do I know if my house needs rewired?
The condition and age of the electrical installation need to be considered rather than relying on one sign alone. Our free initial safety check can help establish whether further testing or upgrading should be considered.
Does an old fuse box mean I need a full rewire?
Not necessarily. An older consumer unit can indicate that an installation hasn't been upgraded recently, but the condition of the existing wiring also needs to be assessed.
Can you carry out a partial rewire?
Yes. Where appropriate, individual circuits or parts of a property may be rewired without replacing the entire electrical installation.
How long does a house rewire take?
This depends on the size, layout, condition and scope of the property. We will discuss the expected programme with you before work begins.
Will I receive electrical certification?
The completed electrical installation will be inspected and tested and the relevant certification provided.
What areas do you cover?
ADR Electrical provides domestic rewiring and electrical services throughout Glasgow and surrounding areas.
