What do electrical rewiring services include?

Electricians can replace cables, fittings, and distribution boards that are old or dangerous. Additionally, electrical rewiring may involve adding circuits to power a pool area or run a new appliance. An electrician can come in to check your existing connection and assess the work they need to do.  

Afterwards, the specialist can perform the rewire and conduct safety tests on all the wiring. A Tasker may conduct safety tests on circuits, fuse boards, and sockets. These tests ensure electricals are running properly and are compliant with building regulations. Below is a list of different ways an electrician can help you. 

Electrical rewiring for electrical issues 

An electrician may need to rewire your home if you always experience overheating sockets, flickering lights, or a blown fuse. In any case, an electrician can do full or partial rewiring on your property. For example, your technician can rewire your lights to address flickering or dimming fixtures. 

A major renovation, on the other hand, may need a fuse board upgrade. Taskers are here to help with minor to major electrical issues you may have. For other home repair tasks, we also help you find plumbers who can address leaking pipes, low water pressure, or other plumbing problems in your home. 

Electrical rewiring for home updates

If you live in an old home that has not been rewired in 25-30 years, it’s a good idea to have an electrician check your electrical system. Chances are, you’ll need to schedule a partial or full rewiring on your house. Old rewiring from the 1980s or 90s is not designed to handle the huge volume of modern household appliances.  

An electrician can ensure your wiring complies with present-day safety standards. When the work is done, you can have another Tasker take away the construction debris and vacuum up dust from the work areas. 

Electrical rewiring for home upgrades

Electricians can do rewiring for small upgrades or major renovations. Small upgrades include installing additional sockets in a room, so you don’t have to use too many extensions around the house. This upgrade can prevent sockets from overheating and reduce fire risks. 

If you’re converting a garage into a recreational space, you may also need electrical wiring. This upgrade enables your electrical system to carry extra loads. Other electrical services include lighting upgrades, light switch replacement, and fan installation. These offerings may vary from Tasker to Tasker. With electrical wiring updates, you may achieve a more attractive living space with a higher property value.

Electriction - rewire between switches

£80

Knightsbridge, Greater London

26th Sep 2025

Connect the empty switch of my 4 gang plate such that it turns and off the extractor fans in my bathroom. Details: I have a switch for the power of my extractor fans in the bathroom and a 4 gang switch for bathroom lights. Both switches are less than a meter apart on the same wall. Currently the extractor fans turn on when their power switch is on and I turn on the main bathroom light. When turning off the main bathroom lights the extractor fans keep running until I use their power switch. Should be an easy job. There already is a whole in the wall to access the back of the 4 gang switch from a previous job.

Great to work with. Responsive before arrival and got the job done as expected and without fuss. Happy to hire again.

Socket and rewiring

£200

Denmark Hill, Greater London, SE5

21st Jul 2025

I had someone round to fix a broken socket box, but they were unable to finish the job due to some issues that arose when he took the box off. I'm pasting what he said about it below. Please feel free to ask questions if necessary, and send quotes of your own. Please include in your quote and materials (for example, I still need a new socket box on there) "Hi Dominic, I’ve spoken to one of my team members, and after both looking at the pictures and from what I could make out on my earlier visit, we both believe the cable running from the fridge socket to the hallway socket needs to be rewired to start. Based on this, the electrician will then be able to test if the existing wire will need to be rewired. Both cables are also unearthed, which is dangerous and could cause multiple issues, such as insulation failure, potential shock, or worse."

Rewire lamps - change to UK wire, change bulb fixture + add a dimmer

£50

Bethnal Green, Greater London, E2

1st Jul 2025

Rewrite vintage Italian lamps - the fuze broke on one and the other never turned off. Bought at auction. If possible, I’d like to change to English wire, change the light bulb fixture (as currently takes R50 which doesn’t allow for warmer than 2700k) and add a dimmer onto the plug.

Excellent handyman. Knew exactly what was needed and ready to go the extra mile. Booked and within a few hours got my vintage Italian Murano lights rewired! Certainly recommend and will use again.
