Home / Sunderland / House rewires in Sunderland
Full and partial rewires across Sunderland by our own NICEIC approved electricians, with plastering and decorating by the same firm so you are not chasing three trades.
A rewire is disruptive, and the biggest headache for most people isn't the wiring, it's the mess afterwards. Because our electricians, plasterers and decorators all work for ATKINSONS, we rewire and make good under one quote and one programme.
We plan the order of rooms so you can keep living in the house where possible, and we keep at least some power on at the end of each day.
Every rewire is tested, certified and notified to building control.
Sunderland cottages are ideal to rewire in one way: single storey, so there are no upstairs floors to lift. But their suspended timber floors and solid walls mean cable routes need planning, and many cottages have a loft room added later with wiring of its own.
For a guide price, UK price guides put a full rewire of a typical three-bedroom house at around £6,500, less for a cottage or two-bed terrace. See our rewire cost guide for more detail. We fix the price after seeing the property.
Our customer service centre is at North Sands Business Centre in Monkwearmouth, and our vans are across Wearside every day. Planning and building control are handled by Sunderland City Council.

In writing, in plain English. No surprises in the small print.
Tell us the work, the property, your timescale and budget through our quick form, and upload any plans or photos. Everything in one place from the start.
We review what you've sent and decide the best next step, whether that's pricing straight away or sorting drawings, planning or building control first.
Where it's needed, we come and look properly: access, structure, levels and anything affecting the cost. Your chance to ask questions before we quote.
A clear, transparent quote setting out what's included, assumed and excluded, with a payment structure. Confidence in what you're accepting, not a one-line price.
Once you're happy, we sort dates, materials, access and building control before anyone lifts a tool, so the job runs smoothly on site.
Our team arrives clear on the agreed scope, keeps the site tidy, communicates as we go and respects your home throughout.
UK price guides put a three-bed house at roughly £6,500 and a two-bed at around £4,500. Cottages are often cheaper. We give a fixed written price after a survey.
Typically three to seven working days for the electrical work, plus time for plastering and decorating.
Usually, yes. We work room by room and restore power at the end of each day wherever possible.
An EICR tells you for certain. Our guide to the signs your house needs rewiring covers the warning signs.
Yes. Making good is included in our rewire quotes, so you don't need a separate plasterer.
