The fuse box is the weak point we find most often in Motherwell's older homes, from the Ladywell terraces to the semis at Forgewood. An old board with rewireable fuses or no safety switches simply can't cut the power fast enough when something goes wrong.
We test every circuit before the changeover so there are no surprises, fit a quality board with surge protection as standard, label it clearly and walk you round it before we leave. Every upgrade is tested and certified to BS 7671, and most are finished in a day.
Circuits tested first
Every circuit is inspected before the swap, so hidden faults in older Motherwell wiring are found and priced honestly up front.
Protection on every circuit
Each circuit gets its own safety switch, so a fault in one room never blacks out the whole house.
Surge protection built in
Your TVs, computers and appliances are protected from damaging power spikes as standard.
Your questions, answered
How much does a new fuse box cost in Motherwell?
A new consumer unit in a typical Motherwell home usually costs in the region of £500 to £900, depending on the board and any remedial work the tests flag. We confirm one fixed price before any work starts.
Why does my new fuse box trip when the old one never did?
Modern boards catch faults the old one silently ignored — that's exactly the protection you're paying for. We test every circuit at changeover, so anything the new board flags gets found and fixed properly.
