When Do You Need a New Consumer Unit?

You may need a consumer unit replacement if your fuse box contains rewireable fuses, frequently trips or overheats, or does not include RCD protection. A replacement may also be necessary if you are renovating or extending your property, or if an electrical safety report has identified defects. Upgrading your consumer unit significantly reduces the risk of electric shock and electrical fire.

Where do I start with Amrit and Kenny...! We struggled with getting electricians for a full house re- wire, If we rang one company they would want us to move out for 2 weeks or If we rang another company they would want us to remove all our furniture out to a storage ! Contacted Amrit, he did not want us to move out or remove anything out of the house, Amrit and Kenny completed the full house re- wire In 3 full days, what speed they did It In unbelievable ! As others were quoting us 1- 2 weeks on average.. They gave us such a good price we could not say no ! Glad we found Legacy Elec genuinly !

Jan High

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish! I've always found it hard and get quite anxious choosing trades people, but so happy I contacted these. I scrolled about searching and reading lots of reviews first. They were friendly and welcoming from the very start, responding straight away to the initial enquiry and provided a quote within minutes, offering a date and time to suit. Amrit and Freddie arrived on time, both friendly and polite and completed all of the jobs quickly and professionally. They offered guidance and ensured I was happy with everything, even down to length of light drops, bulbs, positions etc. Nothing was too much trouble for them. They tidied up as they went along, and made me feel relaxed asking questions about future things I wanted doing too. I would highly recommend them, and they will definitely be my go to for any electrical jobs big and small in the future. They also provide a 6 month guarantee on all work. Recommending to family and friends too. A big thank you to both of them. I'll be back in touch again.
