Working in Stoke Bishop
Stoke Bishop lies between the Downs and the river, with Sneyd Park to the south and the University of Bristol's Stoke Bishop halls of residence on its northern side. It is an area of substantial detached and semi-detached houses, many from the late Victorian period to the 1930s, set in gardens large enough for garages, garden rooms and long drives.
Size brings its own electrical story. A big house has often been extended more than once, with circuits added from whichever board was nearest, and sometimes more than one board. We take the time to map an installation like that before quoting, and the estimate is always free.
Large homes in Stoke Bishop
The first job in a larger house is usually finding out what is actually there. An EICR tests every circuit, identifies which board feeds which room and records what needs attention, graded so you can see what is urgent and what can wait. For a five bedroom home it is £350 + VAT, and from £400 + VAT for six or more, confirmed after a quick chat.
What follows depends on the findings. Sometimes it is a board change and a handful of remedial items; sometimes the report makes the case for a phased rewire.
Phased rewires
A rewire in a large family house does not have to happen all at once. We can plan it floor by floor, or leave rooms that were rewired more recently, so the work fits around the household and the budget. The survey sets the route for each room, including how to protect cornices, panelling and original ceilings.
Several boards, one clear picture
Where an extension, an annexe or a garage has its own board, we make sure each one is correctly protected, correctly fed and labelled, so anyone working on the house later can see exactly what each switch controls. Main board replacements start from £680 + VAT, with £780 + VAT for the 8 to 12-way board most houses need.
Drives and longer charger runs
Houses set back from the road often need a longer cable run to the parking space. We price the run up front: £780 + VAT including the charger for up to 10 metres, £880 + VAT for 10 to 15 metres and £980 + VAT for 15 to 20 metres, with anything longer surveyed and quoted as one plan.
