Hello all you sources of DIY info, I have a (not so) quick question.
Firstly, can anyone recommend any reputable sparkies in the South London / Croydon area to carry out a complete internal rewire of a victorian terraced house.
Also, does anyone have a method of sticking a finger in the air and pulling out an average cost?
To give an idea of the extent of rewire required, the entire house is currently running from 2 fuses, half the house is running through a little plastic joiner block, I have found kitchen appliance flex used for the lighting main, holding a mains detector shows an entire wall as having residual current, basically, enough to make me not trust a single centimetre of the existing mains.
All the current sockets are surface mounted and I want them flush, with bucket loads in every room.
The house is a 3 bedroom, 2 downstairs rooms, 1 kitchen, 1 bathroom, 1 loft affair.... Oh, and I already have two, brand new, fully populated, split load, 15 way, RCD protected consumer units....
All and any help offered is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
