How much do we charge?

At Ideal Electricians, we believe finding a reliable electrician in London should come with clear, honest and competitive pricing. Whether you need a pre-booked electrician, urgent electrical repairs or a 24-hour emergency electrician in London, we aim to make our electrical service charges straightforward and easy to understand before work begins. Our experienced electricians provide domestic, commercial and industrial electrical services across London, with rates based on the type of service and the time of your appointment.

Our minimum charge covers the first hour of electrical work, with any additional time charged in half-hour intervals. This means you only pay for the time required once the initial hour has been completed. If we finish your original electrical repair, installation or fault-finding job within the first hour, our electrician can also assist with other electrical tasks during the remaining time at no additional labour cost. This can be particularly useful for customers who have several small electrical jobs that need attention.

Materials and parts are charged separately from our labour rates. We use high-quality, genuine and certified electrical materials wherever possible to help ensure safe, reliable and long-lasting results. A 20% handling charge applies to materials supplied by us. While our electricians carry a selection of commonly required parts and materials, some specialist components may need to be sourced separately. If this is the case, we will arrange a convenient time to return and complete the work.

From emergency electrical repairs and consumer unit upgrades to EICRs, PAT testing and full rewires, our pricing is designed to offer excellent value without hidden costs. Once your electrical work has been completed, you will receive an invoice detailing the charges.
