Adding new sockets

[KarbyBugger]

We had an electric check in our house and it said some things need fixing - one point isn't earthed probably and two areas have weak power - so we want to get these fixed. We also want to add sockets, probably two double sockets per room (it's a 3 bed).

I was thinking maybe just go for a rewire as it's an older house but now that feels really disruptive and probably overkill. The last owners did the kitchen and bathroom and we don't want to replace those and only need one additional socket in the kitchen.

We can afford the rewire and haven't moved in yet but are we just going for pointless disruption? Could we just get the small fixes from the report and sockets added, with caveat that if they find old wiring, it will then cost more?

My sister and I had this paper in our bedroom! Painted a very odd blue.

Went round the house with the electrician, he explained our options and how they could do the rewire without damaging kitchen or bathroom (as these are 'done' rooms) and that the system is probably 40 years old - so we're going for the rewire. Having had it explained, I understand it a lot more and feel good about it now. So we'll be in the house by end of the month!
