When Do You Need a Rewire?
Many homes in North Yorkshire were built decades ago with electrical systems that no longer meet modern safety standards. Signs that your property may need rewiring include:
- Frequent blown fuses or tripped circuit breakers
- Flickering or dimming lights
- Burning smell from outlets or switches
- Discoloured or warm outlet covers
- Two-pin sockets or round pin plugs
- Rubber, fabric, or lead-sheathed cables
- Property over 25 years old with original wiring
