Homes and wiring in East of England
The East of England combines fast-growing commuter towns with market towns and a large rural area. New estates generally have modern installations that mainly need additions – outdoor sockets, garden lighting and EV chargers – while older cottages and farmhouses are more likely to need rewiring, earthing upgrades or a new consumer unit. Longer travel distances can affect call-out times in the countryside.
