When finding a professional who can help maintain, repair or replace your electrics, experience matters. You need to rest safe in the knowledge that the electrician you choose has the qualifications and expertise to undertake work correctly and complete it to the highest standards. Budget is another deciding factor when picking an electrician.

In this blog post, we take a closer look at the costs of UK electricians, which factors influence their pricing, and where to start your search for an experienced, qualified, budget friendly professional.

The average cost of a UK electrician…

According to the latest findings, the average hourly cost of a UK based electrician is around £45. This hourly rate is much higher if your property is based in London, with electricians operating within or serving the capital charging up to £60 per hour on average. Day rates for UK electricians range from £300 to £360.

For emergency or out-of-hours electrical work, higher costs apply, with electricians completing urgent repairs generally charging between £60 and £80 per hour in the UK.

…and the factors influencing that final price

We’ve already touched on one factor that could impact costs for electrical work, yet location isn’t the only influence.

The skillset and experience of your electrician will have a bearing on cost, while the project itself will of course dictate the price. The size, specification and complexity of the job will all be considered carefully by the electrician providing your quote.
