At House Rewiring Birmingham we provide complete domestic electrical services throughout Stourbridge and its surrounding

communities. Our team carries out full and partial house rewiring, fuse board and consumer unit replacements, EICR

testing and every other domestic electrical service across the town — from the Grade I and II listed buildings around

the town centre to the Victorian terraces and cottages scattered across Norton, Oldswinford and Pedmore, and the

post-war suburbs of Wollaston, Wordsley and Amblecote. Stourbridge sits about 10 miles west of Birmingham, easily

accessible via the A456 and A491, which keeps every DY8 postcode comfortably within our everyday working area — a

genuinely local team with no call-out premiums and no long waits for an appointment. Experienced domestic electricians

deliver safe, fully certified installations to BS 7671 and Part P building regulations, with tidy workmanship and honest

fixed quotes on every job.


Stourbridge has a distinctive and layered housing story that makes it a natural focus for rewiring today. The town

emerged as a market centre in the 13th century, but its defining character was shaped by the glass industry — introduced

by Hungarian and Lorraine refugees in 1556 and dominating the town through the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. That

industrial heritage means Stourbridge is home to converted works buildings, period terraces built for workers and

managers, listed structures dating back centuries, and Victorian-era expansions that wired entire streets at once.

Alongside this sits extensive 20th-century suburban growth — estates built from the 1920s onwards now reaching rewiring

age, with original circuits and consumer units showing their fifty to seventy years. Add Stourbridge's isolation from

motorway access, sitting on the southwestern edge of the Black Country with countryside close by, and you have a town of

real character with profound electrical rewiring needs across every building type. At House Rewiring Birmingham, we

bring every Stourbridge home — from the Grade I listed church to the post-war semi — up to modern electrical standards —

carefully, tidily and at a fair fixed price.

Rewiring Stourbridge’s Housing Stock

From Grade I and II listed buildings around the market centre to Victorian worker terraces, converted industrial properties and sprawling post-war suburbs, Stourbridge’s housing reflects centuries of industrial heritage and modern growth — and we know how to rewire every single type.

Grade I & II Listed Buildings and Town Centre Properties

Stourbridge’s heart contains Grade I listed St. Mary’s Church, Grade II listed St. Thomas’s Church and Town Hall, and numerous other period structures dating back to the market town’s medieval origins and its 17th-century glass industry boom. The Talbot Inn in the High Street, dating from the early 1600s, reflects the wealth and character of the era.

We rewire these prestigious buildings with meticulous care, preserving original features and working sensitively within listed building constraints. Every installation respects the historical integrity while meeting modern safety standards.

Victorian Terraces and Industrial-Era Worker Homes

Much of Stourbridge consists of Victorian and Edwardian terraces and semi-detached homes built during the 19th and early 20th centuries for glass workers, managers and tradespeople. These characterful streets are scattered across Norton, Oldswinford and Pedmore, with their original brick facades and period interiors now requiring modern electrical safety.

We rewire these homes affordably and efficiently, typically completing a full rewire in five to seven days, leaving the Victorian character intact and modern safety standards in place.

Post-War Suburban Homes and 20th-Century Estates

From the 1920s onwards, Stourbridge expanded into sprawling suburbs — estates built in Wollaston, Wordsley, Amblecote and Wollescote during the mid-to-late 20th century. These homes were wired in batches during the 1950s-70s, and that entire generation of wiring is now fifty to seventy years old, well beyond its design life and lacking modern RCD protection.

These estates often have straightforward, repeated layouts, so rewires are frequently quicker and more affordable than homeowners expect.

Converted Industrial and Modern Detached Homes

Stourbridge’s glass industry legacy lives on in converted lofts, studios and residential properties created from old works and outbuildings. Alongside these sit newer detached homes built more recently on the town’s edges. Both call on us for full rewires, consumer unit upgrades, extension wiring and specialist installations.

Whatever the age or type of your home, the work is certified to the same standard, with paperwork ready for surveyors and solicitors when needed.

What Our Stourbridge Customers Say

Homeowners and landlords across Stourbridge trust House Rewiring Birmingham.

House Rewiring in Stourbridge FAQs

How much does a house rewire cost in Stourbridge?
Pricing matches our Birmingham rates, with no premium for Stourbridge postcodes. A full rewire of a two-bed home starts from around £3,500–£4,500, with three and four-bed homes costing more depending on size and specification. Listed buildings may require additional planning for conservation considerations, which we discuss at the free survey. Every job begins with a fixed written quote.
Can you rewire Grade I and II listed buildings?
Absolutely — and it’s one of our specialties in Stourbridge. Listed building work requires care, sensitivity and understanding of planning rules. We handle all the technical and regulatory sides, source cables and accessories that sit sympathetically in period properties, and work carefully to preserve original features. Most rewires are approved without issue; we’ll walk you through the process at your free survey.
My Victorian terrace has original wiring — does it really need replacing?
Very likely. Victorian and Edwardian wiring in Stourbridge is now one hundred to one hundred and thirty years old, far beyond its design life, with no RCD protection and insulation that has degraded invisibly. An EICR gives you a definitive, test-based answer; if the wiring is still healthy, we’ll happily tell you so. But in most cases, a full rewire is the safe and sensible route.
Which parts of Stourbridge do you cover?
The whole of Stourbridge and its surrounding areas — the town centre and listed buildings, Norton, Oldswinford, Pedmore, Wollaston, Wordsley, Amblecote, Wollescote, Stambermill and Stourton. If you’re in the DY8 postcode, you’re comfortably inside our everyday working area.
Do you have experience with converted industrial properties?
Yes. Stourbridge’s glass industry heritage means several residential properties have been converted from old works, lofts and outbuildings. These can present unusual wiring layouts and challenges. We’ve worked on several industrial conversions in the area and understand exactly how to approach them safely and sympathetically. Discuss any specific concerns at your free survey.
