Full & Partial Rewires — Price on Survey
Rewires vary enormously depending on property size, age, construction type and access. A period property in Blackheath with lath and plaster walls is a very different job to a modern 1980s house in Chislehurst. We don’t publish from-prices for rewires because a figure that’s accurate for one property could be significantly misleading for another.
We’ll visit the property, assess the full scope and provide a detailed written fixed-price quotation. No obligation.
Why the Cheapest Quote Isn’t Always the Best Value
There are plenty of electricians in SE London who will quote less than us. Here’s what you’re getting when you choose Inspect Electrical — and what you might not be getting with a lower quote.
NICEIC Approved — Annually Assessed
Not self-declared. Our qualifications, workmanship and documentation are independently assessed by Certsure LLP every year. That assessment costs time and money — and it’s reflected in our pricing.
Proper Certification — Every Time
All notifiable domestic work is certified and notified where required. Your electrical certificate or report provides important evidence that the work or inspection has been properly documented. A job without proper certification may be queried by insurers or conveyancers.
Fully Insured via Allianz
Public liability, employer’s liability and professional indemnity. If anything goes wrong, you’re covered. Not all electricians carry adequate insurance — always check before work starts.
30+ Years Experience
Over 30 years of hands-on electrical work across domestic, commercial and educational environments in SE London. Experience means fewer surprises and better outcomes.
Written Fixed Quotes
The agreed scope is quoted in writing before work starts. If anything unexpected is found once work begins, we explain it clearly and agree any additional cost before proceeding.
You Know Who’s Coming
Alan or Lucy carry out the work — not a subcontractor you’ve never met. 5-star Google rated by local homeowners and landlords. Your home is in good hands.
A note on very cheap EICR quotes
A thorough EICR on a standard house takes 2–4 hours. If you’re seeing quotes significantly under £150, it’s worth asking how long the inspection will take and whether the electrician is NICEIC or NAPIT registered. A rushed inspection or an inadequately documented report may be queried by letting agents, local authorities or insurers — meaning you may need further inspection or clarification.
Pricing FAQs
Questions we get asked regularly about pricing and quotes.
How much does an electrician cost in Chislehurst or Blackheath?
It depends on the job. The prices above are realistic starting points for SE London. For an accurate figure, we provide a fixed written quote after assessing the specific job — at no charge and with no obligation.
Why do EICR prices vary so much?
Property size, number of circuits and age of installation all affect the time required. A 1-bed flat is a quicker inspection than a 4-bed Victorian house. Very cheap quotes often reflect a shorter inspection time — which may mean a less thorough report.
Do you give fixed quotes before starting work?
Yes — always. Every job gets a written fixed-price quotation before we book anything. If anything unexpected is found, we explain it clearly and agree any additional cost before proceeding.
Is the price different for older properties?
Often yes. Period properties — particularly pre-war houses with lath and plaster walls — can take longer to inspect and rewire. We’ll flag this in the quotation. The prices above are starting points for standard properties.
Do you charge for quotes?
No. Written quotes are provided free of charge and with no obligation. For larger jobs such as rewires we’ll arrange a site visit to assess the scope properly before quoting.
Are certificates included in the price?
Electrical certification is included in the quoted price for work that requires it. Where domestic notification is required, this is handled through our NICEIC registration. You’ll receive your certificate digitally on the day or the next working day.
