Do I Need A Rewire?

Determining the need for an electrical rewire depends on several factors. Here are some points to consider:

  • Worn-out or Eroded Electrical Wires: If the insulation on your electrical wires is damaged, exposing the wires themselves, this is a significant safety hazard. It’s crucial to have these wires replaced and rewired to prevent electrical faults and potential fires.
  • Exposed Wires and Safety Hazards: Exposed wires are a significant safety concern as they increase the risk of electric shocks and injuries. If you notice any exposed wires, it’s crucial to address the issue promptly and rewire the affected areas if necessary.
  • Old and Poor Wiring: Outdated electrical systems with inadequate wiring can pose various risks. They may not meet current safety standards and might struggle to handle the electrical demands of modern appliances and devices. Rewiring can bring your system up to code, ensuring compliance with safety regulations and improving overall performance and reliability.
  • Multiple Additions and Alterations: If your property has undergone multiple additions, renovations, or alterations over the years, it’s possible that the electrical system has become fragmented and may require rewiring to ensure proper integration and functionality.
  • Signs of Electrical Issues: Persistent issues like discolored sockets and switches, burning smells from faulty wires, flickering lights, tripping fuse boards, sparks, or electric shocks should not be ignored. These can indicate underlying electrical problems that may require rewiring to address the root cause.
  • Damaged Insulation and Other Anomalies: Cracked or damaged insulation on wires, as well as the presence of green goo (corrosion) from cables or switches and sockets, are signs of potential electrical issues that may necessitate rewiring.

To accurately determine if a rewiring project is necessary, it’s recommended to have a professional electrician conduct a thorough inspection of your electrical system. They can identify any potential hazards or deficiencies and provide expert advice on whether a rewiring is required and the extent of the project.

Remember, electrical safety is paramount, and addressing any concerns promptly is essential to protect yourself, your property, and others from potential hazards.

Rob and the Team were nothing short of incredible when they installed my solar array (13 Panels) and Battery Storage (Tesla PW3 + DC Expansion).Not only has the installation been a really smooth process, with clear communication throughout, prompt arrival timings and flexible around our plans, but the end product is something I'm extremely happy with.The aftercare from RMD has also been amazing, completing minor collateral damage repairs (the expected odd broken tile) but also checking in on how the system was running, and checking I was still happy with the install. Also took the time to talk me through the equipment, isolators etc. Cable runs were also logical and blended in to the other utilities around my property.By the end of it, they felt like part of the family. Would hire them back for any of my electrical needs in a heartbeat
