Linlithgow has some of the oldest homes on our patch. The streets around the High Street, the Cross and the Palace are full of stone houses and much of the town centre is a conservation area. Many of these homes were last rewired decades ago. Rubber or fabric cables, fuses you rewire by hand, warm sockets or lights that flicker all point to a rewire.
Solid stone walls and old plaster need a careful plan. We agree where every socket and switch goes, then pick cable routes that stay out of sight and do the least harm. Floors are covered, walls are made good and each room is left tidy every evening. The whole house is tested when we finish. Most full rewires of a three-bed house in Linlithgow cost between £4,000 and £7,500. You get one fixed price in writing after we see the house.

Your questions, answered
Can you rewire a listed house?
Yes, with care. Some work may need listed building consent, so check with West Lothian Council first. We plan routes that avoid cutting into original features.
How do I know if my house needs a rewire?
Signs include rubber or fabric cables, old fuses, warm sockets and too few sockets. If you are not sure, we can test the wiring and tell you honestly.
Can we live in the house while you rewire?
Usually, yes. We work room by room and try to keep the power on at night. For bigger jobs an empty house can be quicker and we will say so.
