What matters for full property rewires on a post-war semi is the condition of this installation, not the average condition of installations generally. On this stock the sensible answer is metal-clad 18th Edition CU with RCBO per circuit — matched to the wiring generation, not a lift-and-shift from a new-build brochure. Age alone does not condemn an installation. Plenty of older Swansea wiring tests perfectly well; some newer work does not. The alternative — ignoring priced against your post-war semi's — tends to cost more later.

Whether the property is owner-occupied or let in Swansea, the technical work is identical — only the paperwork's recipient changes. It is the kind of detail that separates a tidy job from a callback. Whether this is urgent or simply overdue, the sequence for full property rewires on a post-war semi does not change much.

What we build into every quote

Certificate at the end, delivered the same evening, in the format your next EICR or agent will expect. We will confirm it in writing.
Materials matched to the stock: metal-clad 18th Edition CU with RCBO per circuit, plus SPD retrofit. It affects sequence more than cost.
Where the property has been altered or extended, fixed price at quote stage, calibrated to c.1945–1965 construction is the common finding.
Certificate at the end, delivered the same evening tends to appear alongside other signs rather than alone.

Construction & access

Photographs of anything hidden are taken as standard, because you should not have to take our word for what is above the ceiling. It gets photographed if it will be hidden afterwards.

Wiring generation & likely findings

Certification and paperwork are part of the job, not an optional extra at the end. Prices are fixed after the survey, so the number you approve is the number you pay.

Materials we spec

On a post-war semi you should expect us to flag: kitchen refit added post-rewire, socket circuit no longer matches the original ring layout; bathroom shower feed on a 6mm radial with an isolator hidden above the ceiling; outside tap or outside socket added on a spur without RCD protection. The most useful thing you can tell us on the first call is what changed immediately before you noticed the problem. It rarely changes the price, but it does change the plan.

FAQs — post-war semi in Swansea

What's specific about full property rewires on a post-war semi?+

Two things: kitchen refit added post-rewire, socket circuit no longer matches the original ring layout, and the wiring generation — rewired 1990s–2010s. Both go on the quote, not the invoice.

What if the property has had DIY work done?+

It gets tested like anything else. Wiring generation on record (rewired 1990s–2010s) so the quote is often the result of well-meant work that was never verified.

What if you find something unrelated?+

It gets reported, not quietly fixed. You decide whether it is dealt with now or later.

Can you give a price over the phone?+

A realistic range, yes. A firm figure follows the testing, because certificate at the end, delivered the same evening and a simpler cause look identical from the outside.

Do you cover Swansea for full property rewires on a post-war semi?+

The relevant point here: yes — Swansea and the surrounding SA1–SA7 postcodes are part of our regular working area, including Neath and Llanelli, and Swansea Council notification is handled by us where the work requires it.

Do you work on commercial premises too?+

Yes, across SA1–SA7 and the wider area. The testing regime differs but the approach is the same.

Nearby coverage

The cost drivers here are access and condition rather than parts. Diary planned for the access constraint is the one that moves a quote most. We would say the same to a family member.
