Bexley

The London Borough of Bexley is a London borough in south-east London, England. It shares its borders with the London Borough of Bromley towards the south and the Royal Borough of Greenwich to the west. Across the River Thames to the north it borders the London Borough of Havering, the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham and there's a small boundary with the unitary authority of Thurrock in Essex to the north-east. There is a border with Dartford borough towards the east and Sevenoaks district towards the south-east, both being inside the ceremonial county of Kent. The London Borough of Bexley is within the Thames Gateway, an area designated as a national priority for urban regeneration. The borough covers a total area of 23.38 square miles. In line with estimates collected in the middle of 2014, it features a permanent population of around 239865 individuals. The map of Bexley shows that a sizable proportion of its area comprises suburbia. Some named places, like Albany Park and Barnehurst, are names provided to developments engendered by the building of the railways. A fair quantity came to exist when large estates and farmland had been broken up for the sole objective of suburban building. These include Blackfen, Lamorbey and part of Falconwood. Others just reflect the nature of the area, for example Lessness Heath, Longlands, which is a part of Sidcup, Northumberland Heath and West Heath. The local authority is Bexley London Borough Council. Regardless of the suburbia, there are still open spaces amongst the borough's streets and avenues. The Borough owns and maintains more than one hundred parks and open spaces, large and small; and there is still a part of the Erith Marshes bordering the River Thames. For all your residence upgrades, ensure that that you use trustworthy experts in Bexley to ensure you get the most effective quality.

FAQs

does a 1970s house need rewiring?

Unlike in houses constructed in the 1960s, where you’d probably need to rewire the entire house unless the wiring is the modern PVCu coated type, majority of houses built in the 1970s would not need to be rewired. Most often than not, what they’ll need is just a consumer unit as well as an earthing upgrade. If you happen to have a consumer unit change, the electrical professional you hire would have to inspect the most parts of the property regardless. With that answered, you may also wish to know just how often a house would need to be rewired.

 

First and foremost, in order to make sure that your wiring is safe there’s a need to ensure that a periodic inspection is carried out by a fully licensed and qualified electrician every 10 years. Meanwhile for rental properties with tenants, the landlord is required to carry out a periodic inspection at least every 5 years. This will make sure that the electrical works in the property are safe, up to date and suitable for continued usage.

 

In order to determine whether your house needs to be rewired, there are some signs or indicators you’d have to watch out for. If you notice one or even a combination of the following , then you should get in touch with a registered electrician:

  • Discoloured outlets and switches
  • Persistent burning smell
  • Outlets problems
  • Flickering lights
  • Tripping circuit breaker or blown fuses
  • If you happen to possess aluminium wiring
  • If you have continually experienced electrical shocks

 

It must, however, be said that rewiring a house is a messy and quite disruptive work. It’s also considered to be quite dangerous and recommended to be carried out only by a professional is well trained and experienced when it comes to tackling electrical works.

However, if you do not feel confident enough to pull this off, we’d strongly recommend you get in touch with a reliable electrical professional who can guarantee that a safe and effective work is done.

  • Firstly, you’d have to upgrade the main service panel to a minimum of 100 amps
  • Fit dedicated circuits in the service panel for all the home’s major appliances.
  • Allow for a space of about 6 to 8 feet between electrical outlets throughout the house in order to cut out the need to run extension cords which could be a fire hazard.
  • Install only three-prong type to avoid electrical shocks when fitting new outlets.
  • Using ground fault circuit interrupters, fit outlets in the bathrooms, kitchen as well as outdoors. These outlets will shut themselves out so as to prevent electrical shock when wet.
