Bungalow consumer unit upgrades — Pontypridd (CF37–CF38)

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.

Call for PontypriddGet a quote

Most bungalow properties across Pontypridd were rewired 1980s–2010s; loft cabling is easy but often overdue for a CU upgrade. That single fact drives the consumer unit upgrades conversation more than any brochure spec ever does — we're inheriting a wiring generation, not starting from scratch.

The quote we send is calibrated to that inheritance: what's testable, what needs remedial work, what's genuinely fine as it stands. No wholesale "modernise everything" pitch when the existing installation is sound.

Construction & access

Wiring generation & likely findings

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 we spec

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.

What we build into every quote

  • Certificate at the end, delivered the same evening, in the format your next EICR or agent will expect.
  • Materials matched to the stock: metal-clad 18th Edition CU, plus SPD retrofit.
  • Cable routing planned around cavity brick, generous single-storey plan, easy loft access — no chasing walls that don't take a chase, no mid-job "we couldn't get through".
  • Common bungalow findings we flag before quoting: old CU in a hallway cupboard, still plastic split-load.
