Rewiring for homes in Kingston

A consumer unit upgrade can sit inside a rewire package or be scoped separately. The circuits decide which applies, not preference.
Kingston sits under Kingston upon Thames (KT1). Building Regulations, freeholder rules and neighbour interfaces still shape method address by address on victorian terraces & modern developments.
