How messy is a rewire

How messy is a rewire? Don’t panic if you’re considering a rewire at your home in Bristol but are worried about the amount of dust that might accumulate months down the line.

Allied Electrical Services use clever, innovative technology to keep dust at bay. We provide a professional finish, guaranteed to tick all the boxes.

What is a house rewire?

During a house rewire in Bristol, outdated and damaged wiring is replaced alongside switches and outlets. Older wiring is less accommodating to the demands of electrical power in modern homes, causing problems such as short circuits.

You’re probably wondering, how messy is a rewire? There will be some dust and debris as existing cables will be lifted out and new wiring will be laid. 

The team find it incredibly helpful if clients move large bulk furniture out of the way and anything that can’t be removed should be covered securely to prevent the build up of dust.

Why are rewires so messy?

The majority of electrical wiring at your home in Bristol is hidden within walls, flooring and ceiling spaces. As rewire electricians, we do need to open up these confined spaces to assess the quality of existing wiring, remove outdated wiring and to lay modern cables.

Whilst we lift up carpets, cut into brick walls and open up the ceiling, there will unfortunately be quite a lot of dust and fall out.

Don’t lose all hope if you’re still thinking how messy is a rewire? Here at Allied Electrical Services, we offer a standard full repair service so all you have to do is start decorating once we’ve finished with rewiring your home.

Yes, that's right. Our services include the use of a dustless chaser and full repair, so you won’t need to pay for additional traders such as a plasterer.

How messy is a rewire? Not messy at all!

Allied Electrical Services are highly experienced rewire specialists, we offer a unique service which sets us aside from the average electrician. If you’re based in Bristol, you’ll be pleased to know we use a dustless chaser. A state of the art tool which combines cutting open walls and drawing up any dust through a vacuum system at the same time.

Allied Electrical Services, rewire specialists

Whenever the team is asked “how messy is a rewire?”, we’re completely transparent and do say that a little bit of dust is inevitable. However, we can’t stress how important a rewire is in keeping your home safe and free of risks. Modern wiring will not only meet industry standards, but will reduce the possibility of electrical fires and electric shocks at your home in Bristol.

As NICEIC approved electricians, you can be confident that all wiring work is in line with BS7671.

Call Allied Electrical Services today to discuss a rewire at your home in Bristol.
