How much does Electricians cost in Manchester? (2026 price guide)

A basic call-out to fix a socket or switch typically costs £70-£120 for the first hour, while rewiring a full three-bedroom house usually runs £3,500-£6,000 depending on access and finish. A consumer unit (fuse box) replacement typically costs £250-£450, and installing an EV charging point usually runs £800-£1,200.

Costs are shaped mainly by the scope of work, property size and age, how accessible the wiring is (older properties with solid walls often cost more), and whether certification is needed for Part P building regulations compliance. Urgent or emergency call-outs, particularly evenings and weekends, typically attract a call-out premium on top of standard rates.

Always confirm an electrician is registered with a body such as NICEIC or NAPIT, since this ensures work is certified and often required for home insurance or resale purposes.
