House rewiring cost guide

What affects the cost of rewiring a house and what to consider before asking for a quote.

Why online rewire prices are only a starting point

Search demand around house rewiring cost is high, but a fixed online price is rarely enough to plan a real domestic rewire. A quote needs to account for the condition of the existing installation, access, the number of rooms and whether the work is part of a refurbishment.

Questions that shape the scope

  • Is the property occupied during the work?
  • Is this a full rewire or only certain rooms and circuits?
  • Are you adding sockets, lighting points or garden room power?
  • Does the consumer unit need changing as part of the project?
  • Are there existing faults that need identifying first?
