A complete rewire involves replacing all electrical cables, sockets, switches, and the consumer unit (fuse box) throughout your property. For a typical 3-bedroom house in Central Scotland, expect 5-10 days work and costs of £3,500-£6,000 depending on property size and accessibility.

Commercial properties need testing every 3-5 years depending on use. If you have an old fuse box (over 15 years), notice flickering lights, tripping circuits, or burning smells, book an inspection immediately as these indicate potential safety issues.
