Expert Electrical Rewiring for Older Homes & Extensions
Over time, electrical wiring degrades, insulation cracks, and older installations struggle to cope with modern household power demands. Frayed wiring, frequent tripping, or outdated rubber and lead-cabled systems pose severe fire and shock hazards.
At Altrics Electrical Services, we specialise in full and partial house rewiring designed to modern BS7671 standards. Whether you are modernising a period property in High Barnet or wiring a new home extension, our NICEIC-approved electricians ensure your entire electrical network is safe, concealed, and fully certified.

Frequently Asked Questions About House Rewiring
How do I know if my house needs a full rewire?
Answer: Common signs that a property needs rewiring include fuse boxes with old re-wireable fuses, discoloured or sparking sockets, light switches that buzz or get hot, and wiring older than 25 to 30 years that fails an EICR safety inspection.
How long does a full house rewiring project take to complete?
Answer: A full domestic house rewire typically takes between 5 to 10 working days, depending on the size of the property and whether the house is occupied or vacant during the renovation work.
Can you do a partial rewire for a kitchen extension or single room?
Answer: Yes. If your property's main wiring is healthy but you are adding a kitchen extension, loft conversion, or individual room upgrade, we provide expert partial rewiring that seamlessly integrates with your existing system.
