Rewiring in Crawley
A full or partial rewire replaces some or all of a property's electrical wiring, sockets, switches and consumer unit with a new installation to current standards, typically needed where existing wiring is old, unsafe or insufficient for modern electrical demand.
In Crawley, that covers Ifield, Three Bridges, Southgate, Furnace Green, Broadfield, Pound Hill, Maidenbower, Northgate, West Green, Langley Green, Tilgate, Gossops Green, Bewbush. Crawley combines postwar new-town neighbourhoods with older pockets around Ifield, Three Bridges and Southgate, and sits close to Gatwick Airport with strong transport links into London and along the M23. Housing stock ranges from 1950s–70s estate homes to Victorian terraces and more recent developments, which means project requirements vary considerably from one street to the next.

Property styles in Crawley
Crawley's housing mix includes postwar semis and terraces across the New Town neighbourhoods, Victorian and Edwardian houses around the older Ifield and Southgate areas, and newer estate housing on the town's edges. Many properties are well suited to rear or side-return extensions where garden depth allows, and loft conversions are common in the older stock.
Planning considerations
Crawley Borough Council is the local planning authority. Ifield village and parts of the old town centre fall within conservation areas, which affects permitted development rights and materials on visible elevations. Properties near Gatwick Airport may also be subject to safeguarding or noise-related planning considerations, which we check at feasibility stage.

FAQs
Rewiring in Crawley: FAQs
Do you provide rewiring across all of Crawley?
Yes, we cover the RH10 and RH11 postcode areas in full, including Ifield, Three Bridges, Southgate, Furnace Green, Broadfield, Pound Hill, Maidenbower, Northgate, West Green, Langley Green, Tilgate, Gossops Green, Bewbush.
How do I know if I need a full or partial rewire?
This is based on an EICR and the age and condition of the existing wiring, not assumed from the property's age alone. We assess the installation and recommend the appropriate scope.
Will a rewire mean redecorating afterwards?
Typically, yes — chasing cable routes into walls disturbs plaster and decoration, so some making good and redecoration is usually needed afterwards. We set out what to expect before work starts.
Do you cover both RH10 and RH11 in Crawley?
Yes, we work across both postcode areas, including the town centre, Ifield, Three Bridges, Southgate, Furnace Green and the surrounding neighbourhoods.
