From our initial meeting and throughout his attendance Andy presented an utterly friendly and engaging manner. Equally, his professionalism shone through his steadfast approach to the work in hand concerning the re-wiring of my home. Communication was consistently clear and helpful eg keeping me informed of developments and ongoing progress, very re-assuring indeed.
Special thanks, also, to Steve's earnest contribution: not only for his positive and courteous attitude but also the due diligence and care consistently applied in terms of cleaning up after each stage in the whole process. Much admired and greatly appreciated.
Overall, I am very pleased with the entire experience and, as such, would happily recommend TM Hughes and Son to others.

Andy made re wiring our entire home easy and completed it within a quick timeframe. After a free quote, we worked out the plan for the wiring. Where some things were less possible, Andy called me and discussed. If you’re looking for someone who knows what they’re doing, this is your guy 👌. Cheers again.

Signs Your Loughton Home Needs Rewiring

Electrical wiring does not last forever. Many homes in Loughton have wiring that is no longer safe or works well. Here are some signs that your home may need Rewiring:

Common Electrical Problems

Regular power cuts, flickering lights, or fuses that trip often mean there’s a wiring problem. If fuses trip repeatedly, they may be faulty. Or your electrical system may struggle to handle the amount of power you are using.

Old Electrical Parts

Old fuse boxes with rewirable fuses do not provide the same level of protection as modern consumer units and RCD fuses. If your home still has an old fuse box with old sockets and switches, it’s time to rewire it.

How Old is your wiring

Your wiring will probably need replacing if your home has not been rewired in the last 25–30 years. Electrical safety standards have changed a lot, and older wires may not meet today’s rules. Homes built before the 1980s may still have rubber or lead-insulated wiring, which is unsafe and should be replaced.

Burning Smells or Burn Marks

Discoloured sockets, burning smells, or buzzing sounds from the Consumer Unit indicate electrical problems. These signs should never be ignored. They mean overheating and a possible fire risk inside the wiring.

Lack of Sockets

Older homes often have fewer electrical sockets, leading to too many extension leads. If your home does not have enough sockets to meet your needs, we can install extra sockets during the Rewiring.

Full & Part Rewiring in Loughton

Rewiring makes your electrical system safer, more reliable, and in line with today’s rules. Some homes in Loughton will need a complete rewire, while others only need some areas updated.

Full Rewiring

A full rewire replaces all electrical wiring, sockets, switches, and the consumer unit. Old wires are replaced with modern, fire-safe wiring during a full rewire. New sockets and switches are installed to improve reach and meet current electrical needs. The fuse box/Consumer Unit is upgraded to the latest model and includes RCD protection, making sure the system safely handles power loads.

Full Rewiring brings a home up to the latest UK wiring rules, making it safer and working better. Full Rewiring also allows for extra things such as extra sockets, modern lighting and smart home gadgets.

Partial Rewiring

Some homes do not require a full rewire. A partial rewire updates certain parts of the electrical system. Common reasons for a partial rewire include upgrading the Consumer Unit, rewiring individual rooms, or replacing broken wires. If a home extension or loft conversion is on the way, partial Rewiring makes sure the new space fits safely with the existing electrical system.

Why Rewiring Helps

Upgrading old wiring helps stop problems, helps things run better, and keeps you within safety rules.

Safety & Rules

Electrical safety is the most important thing when carrying out any rewiring work. Faulty wiring makes electrical fires, shocks, and power failures more likely. Rewiring protects the property and its people. Our Electricians make sure all rewiring projects in Loughton meet the latest safety standards and follow UK rules.

Following UK Wiring Rules

All rewiring work meets British Standard BS 7671 (18th Edition of the Wiring Rules). These rules make sure circuits are designed the right way. Wires are well insulated, and Consumer Units give good protection against electrical problems.

New Fuse Boxes for Better Safety

Old fuse boxes do not provide the protection today’s safety standards need. A modern consumer unit has safety switches called RCDs (Residual Current Devices). They cut power at once if an electrical problem happens. This prevents shocks and greatly cuts the risk of fire.

Fire-Safe Wiring

New electrical work uses wires with better fire resistance, cutting the chance of overheating.

Expert Testing and Paperwork

Every rewiring project gets a full check and test. Circuits are tested to make sure they work correctly and safely. Once the work passes all safety checks, an Electrical Installation Certificate (EIC) is issued. The certificate shows the home meets UK wiring rules. Written proof for homeowners and landlords.

Long-Term Safety

Rewiring improves how well an electrical system works, cutting the chances of faults and dangers. With modern wiring in place, homeowners in Loughton can use appliances, lighting, and technology safely without the risks that come with old wiring.

Rewiring All Kinds of Homes in Loughton

Every home is different, and some homes need special rewiring plans. Older houses, listed buildings, and homes being done up often have special electrical needs. Our rewiring services, made to fit each home, make sure each property gets the right approach for its exact needs.

Loughton has many different kinds of homes, from historic and period homes to modern developments and newly built houses. Many older homes in the area still have original wiring that no longer meets modern safety standards. At the same time, newer homes may need electrical upgrades to support newer technology and higher energy needs.

Whether replacing old wiring in a Victorian home, a mid-century house, or a modern property. Professional Rewiring makes sure your Loughton home stays safe and reliable in line with today’s rules.

Rewiring for Older Homes

Many homes in Loughton were built decades ago and still have original wiring that no longer meets today’s rules. These homes often need a full rewire to replace old wires, upgrade the Consumer Units and install extra sockets and switches. Careful planning makes sure the new wiring fits in smoothly while keeping the home’s character.

Listed and Older Homes

Listed buildings need rewiring work that follows heritage rules while improving safety and how well things work. Special methods cut down on mess and damage to original features. Traditional-style fittings can be installed to keep the home’s original look and feel. We have experience working with older homes. Making sure all electrical upgrades are safe and kind to the building’s history.

Rewiring for Extensions and Renovations

Home extensions and makeovers often need electrical upgrades to run new lights, sockets, and appliances. Partial Rewiring connects the new space to the existing system while making sure it meets today’s rules. A full rewire may be needed if the existing electrical system cannot handle the extra power.

Rewiring Kitchens and Bathrooms

Kitchens and bathrooms need special care with the electrics due to water and powerful appliances. Rewiring these areas makes sure circuits are rated the right way, sockets are placed safely, and lighting meets today’s rules.
