Consumer unit upgrades in Ashford and Kent

Planning a fuse-box upgrade or adding new circuits? We assess the existing installation and your plans before recommending a consumer-unit replacement.

A new consumer unit should suit the installation it protects. Azure considers existing circuits, earthing, protective devices and planned changes before scoping an upgrade. Age or appearance alone does not establish what work is needed, and replacing the board will not resolve every wiring fault.

An inspection report, damage, planned alterations or uncertainty about existing protection may prompt an assessment. Tell us about new circuits, an extension or other proposed changes. We review the wider installation and explain any separate remedial work before you commit.

REVIEW THE EXISTING INSTALLATION

Share your postcode, property type, existing inspection report and plans. A clear external photograph can help initial discussions, but do not remove covers or open the consumer unit. We confirm what needs checking on site.

The agreed installation is followed by appropriate inspection, testing and certification, with notification where applicable. We explain the new equipment and any outstanding recommendations. A consumer-unit upgrade does not automatically mean a full rewire.
