A heritage rewire isn't a normal rewire. Wedmore's Georgian frontages and older lias-stone cottages have solid walls and original joinery that cannot be cut about, you can't drill through original cornice, and you can't bury cables under modern plasterboard tricks. Every cable route is planned through joist voids, behind original skirting, under floorboards or around chimney breasts. Lath-and-plaster walls get fished from above and below, never broken open. No surface trunking, ever. Brass plate accessories (Click Scolmore Definity / Forbes & Lomax / Hamilton, specifier-led) replace plastic. Dimming circuits installed throughout to match period lighting design. Full Listed Building Consent supporting documentation provided as standard.

Postcode coverage: BS28, covering Wedmore, Blackford, Theale, Mudgley, Sand and the surrounding Isle of Wedmore villages. Wedmore sits on a ridge above the Somerset Levels, with a conservation area around The Borough and Church Street and the Grade I Listed church of St Mary at its centre.
Stock is Georgian houses around The Borough, older lias and blue-stone cottages, and farmhouses and converted barns out across the Isle. Many are Listed or sit in the conservation area, so Listed Building Consent is usually needed for a full rewire. Wedmore falls under Somerset Council (former Sedgemoor district), and we provide the supporting note as part of the survey.
Most Wedmore heritage rewires take 8-14 working days on site for a 3-bed period house, 18-28 days for a 5-bed Listed property. We work alongside main contractors, architects and conservation officers, with phased programmes where the property stays occupied.

Final price depends on access, conservation-officer scope, existing wiring, fittings choice and time on site. Survey is free; written quote is fixed. Read the disclaimer below the cards before assuming.
For Grade I, Grade II* and most Grade II Listed properties, yes for any full rewire. We help draft the supporting note describing cable routes, fixings, accessory style and reinstatement. The Somerset Council (former Sedgemoor district) conservation team usually signs off straightforward heritage rewires within a few weeks; complex jobs may need a heritage statement.
We fish cables down through the void between lath and stud using rods, draw cords and access via floorboards above or skirting below. New back-boxes are cut neatly with a multitool, never with a chase grinder. Where a route is impossible without damage, we route via the floor void in the room above and drop in. Surface trunking is never used on heritage work.
Specifier-led, we'll fit whatever the architect or interior designer has chosen. Click Scolmore Definity (antique brass / aged brass screwless) is our value default. Forbes & Lomax (Invisible Lightswitch, Nickel Silver, Antique Bronze) is our specifier-grade default. Hamilton Hartland CFX, Hartland G2 and Sheer ranges are also regular fits. We hold trade accounts with all three.
3-bed Victorian terrace: 8-14 working days on site. 4-bed period home: 14-22 working days. 5-bed Listed Georgian: 18-28 working days plus snagging. Phased works available where the property stays occupied. We always agree the programme in writing before first-fix.
