One of the questions we get asked quite a lot is what to expect during a rewire, and whether it's actually possible to stay in the house and sleep there while the work's being carried out.
This 4-bedroom property in Darlington still had much of its original wiring in use, so it was well overdue for a rewire.
The first part of the video shows the reality of a rewire while the work's being carried out. There is a lot of dust and mess involved, and whilst some customers do choose to stay in the property, we generally recommend staying elsewhere if possible while the work's being carried out.
Because we complete most rewires in around 3 to 4 days, that disruption is usually over a lot quicker than people expect.
The second half of the video shows the property after plaster repairs and our standard clean had been completed.
This full rewire was completed in just 4 days.
