Questions about rewires and EICR remedials in Epsom

Is a full rewire disruptive?

Yes. It means lifting floorboards and chasing walls, so it is best done in an empty house or room by room during voids.

Do you cover all of Epsom?

Yes. We work across Epsom and the KT17, KT19 and KT21 postcode areas, plus the rest of Surrey. Nearby places we also cover include Ewell, Banstead, Sutton.

Does a shared house in Epsom need an HMO licence?

In England, a mandatory licence is needed for 5 or more people from 2 or more households. Smaller HMOs can need a licence where the council runs additional licensing, which is common in towns with many shared houses. Check the council’s website for the address.
