Common Electrical Work in Eastbourne
Victorian & Edwardian Properties
Many Eastbourne homes feature original Victorian and Edwardian architecture (built 1880s-1920s). These period properties often have outdated electrical installations with rubber insulation, limited earthing, and no RCD protection. We specialise in sympathetically rewiring these properties while maintaining period aesthetics.
Modern Coastal Homes
Coastal properties need special attention due to salt air corrosion on metal components. We ensure enhanced protection with appropriate cable grades and sealed connections for durability.
Holiday & Rental Properties
Eastbourne's tourism industry means many properties are holiday lettings. We provide EICR testing on a faster schedule and understand the requirements for guest accommodation safety.
Period Property Challenges
- Rewiring through period walls - Careful routing to maintain aesthetics
- RCD protection installation - Modern safety for old wiring
- Socket upgrades - Discreet modern sockets in period settings
- Listed building approvals - Understanding conservation requirements
