cavity brick, generous single-storey plan, easy loft access. Loft-run cabling makes rewires and CU upgrades genuinely easy — a bungalow is often the cheapest full house to rewire.
The awkward part of consumer unit upgrades on a Mountain Ash bungalow isn't the install — it's the route. Loft-run cabling makes rewires and CU upgrades genuinely easy — a bungalow is often the cheapest full house to rewire.
We map the route at survey, mark it up on a photo, and price against that specific plan. Nothing gets discovered mid-job that could have been priced at quote stage.

Wiring generation on this stock is typically rewired 1980s–2010s; loft cabling is easy but often overdue for a CU upgrade. On a bungalow you should expect us to flag: old CU in a hallway cupboard, still plastic split-load; no SPD, no per-circuit RCBOs; extension added over the years with a mixed-vintage sub-board.
Materials and methods we spec on bungalow work: metal-clad 18th Edition CU; SPD retrofit; outbuilding sub-board with a dedicated RCD. Everything is priced on the quote — nothing added on invoice.
Focus on the hall cupboard, the consumer unit location, and the intended cable route. Usually 15–30 minutes on-site or a short photo set.
Priced against your bungalow's specific construction, not a template. Route sketched, materials listed, no line-item surprises.

NICEIC certificate, photo evidence of hidden work, Part P where applicable — all emailed the evening the job signs off.
From M4 J32 (about 18 miles south) the Mountain Ash area, bungalow addresses cluster in specific streets — we know the layouts before we walk in, which shortens the survey and firms up the quote.
Not unless the quote says so. On period stock in particular we route through floors, lofts and non-original plaster; cornices, dado rails and original panelling stay intact.
Common enough that we work on this stock most weeks. Edwardian terraces in Penrhiwceiber, ex-NCB cottages in Miskin, and post-war estates in Abercynon — the bungalow is a recognisable slice of that mix.

Bungalow stock isn't confined to Mountain Ash — the same construction era shows up across Aberdare and Pontypridd. We consolidate diary days across the postcode.
If you take one thing from this page: the awkward part is the routing, not the install. On a bungalow, loft-run cabling makes rewires and cu upgrades genuinely easy — a bungalow is often the cheapest full house to rewire — that's what the quote should reflect.
Calling is faster than a form when the bungalow has quirks (old CU in a hallway cupboard). Two-minute triage, honest read on lead time, booked into the diary the same call.
