Hi there,
I have just recieved a quote to re-wire the flat I have just bought. It is a very small one bedroom flat (40 square metres in total) and the wiring is very old, so a rewire is neccessary it seems.
I have just recieved a quote for £1790 for the job, 'whole electrical installation including parts, labour and certificate. Exclusing sockets, switches, and lights.'
This sounds very very expensive to me! I want to get a second opinion and some more quotes but just wondering if this is around what I should expect to pay?
The living room and bedroom will probably have 2/3 double sockets and wiring for recessed lights, the kitchen just needs wiring for spotlights and some sockets and some extra wire available for when I put a new kitchen in.
The flat really is very small and is also empty so I think this guy is taking me for a ride....
