Fix electrics and install new consumer unit

£350

Welling, Greater London

4th Oct 2026

We had some electrics installed but it’s overloading the breaker. Need to install a new consumer unit near the old one, to power the 4 flats above (separate it from the current fuse box) The previous electrician basically ran everything for 4 flats from just one of these breakers running off that one socket. These 4 flats should run from its own consumer unit, which we have a spare one of.
