What changes the price of fuse board replacement
Consumer unit replacement starts at £450. That buys taking out the old fuse board, fitting a new consumer unit and testing the circuits that run from it.
- The starting figure is for a straightforward swap on a typical domestic board.
- A metal enclosure, extra circuits or a board in a tight cupboard can add labour time.
- We give a written price before any work starts.

“Ten years on Colchester housing stock and I have seen most of it: terraces where the lighting circuit has been extended once too often, boards fitted before RCDs were standard, new builds with sockets nowhere near the kitchen. I check the earthing, the bonding and whether the supply will carry another load before I price anything, because the age of a house settles nothing on its own.”

WhatsAppHow much does fuse board replacement cost in Peterborough?
Lighting Electrical charges from £450, confirmed on survey, not a lead-generation estimate.
How much does fuse board replacement cost?
Consumer unit replacement starts at £450. A larger board, a metal enclosure or awkward access can take the labour above that starting figure. We confirm the written price before we isolate the supply.
How long is the power off?
A straightforward domestic swap is usually done in one visit. The supply stays off from isolation until the new consumer unit is tested and switched back on.
Do I need a certificate for a new consumer unit?
Yes. Replacing a fuse board is notifiable electrical work. Applicable paperwork is issued and notified through NAPIT so the record sits with the local authority.
Can you change a fuse board in a rented house?
Yes. Landlords book this after an EICR or when tenants report tripping fuses. Use the published phone or online booking; appointment scope is confirmed and applicable paperwork follows the work, including access arranged with the occupant.
