I bought a 2 bedroom flat in 2007 and have now looked to getting our old fuse board replaced. The electrician said he didn't want to touch it as it looked very unsafe and suggested the place may need fully re-wired. The electrics have not been touched since moving into the property. Roughly for a 2 bed flat how much will a full re-wire cost £2k?? and should I have been sold a place with such dodgy wiring in the first place? I guess its my own fault and should have had it checked out when I first moved in and I shouldn't have been so trusting. I think the women who sold it did a number on us as we found that she was aware of existing leaks in the roof which we have since sorted.
