What Does a House
Rewire Cost in 2026?

The cost of a house rewire depends on the size of the property, the age of the existing wiring, and the specification you choose — for example, whether you want spotlights, extra sockets, or smart wiring.

At Somerset Rewires Ltd, we provide fixed-price written quotes before any work starts. The prices below are typical ranges to give you a starting point, but your actual quote may vary depending on the specifics of your property.

What's Included &
What Affects Cost

What's Always Included

All labour, new wiring throughout, new consumer unit with individual RCBOs, smoke alarms to BS 5839-6, Part P notification to Building Control, your Electrical Installation Certificate, and all chases filled with bonding and filler ready for decoration.

What Can Add Cost

Spotlights, extra sockets, EV charger installation, smart home wiring, or complex wiring runs — for example, flat roofs with no loft access, thick stone walls in older cottages, or properties with unusually long cable runs.

Fixed-Price Quotes

We always provide a written fixed-price quote after surveying the property. The price you're quoted is the price you pay — no surprises at the end.

Free Survey

We'll visit your property free of charge to assess the work and provide an accurate fixed-price quote. No obligation to proceed.

Cost FAQs

Is a fixed-price quote guaranteed?

Yes — once we've surveyed your property and issued a written quote, that is the price you pay. The only exception is if you ask us to add extra work during the job.

Do you charge for a quote?

No. Surveys and quotes are completely free with no obligation to proceed.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept bank transfer. After the first working day we invoice for 20% of the total balance to cover initial materials. The remaining balance is collected on completion.

Why do rewire costs vary so much?

Property size, age, wall construction type, and specification all affect the price. A solid-wall Victorian terrace takes longer to chase cables than a modern plasterboard stud-wall house. We assess each property individually to give you an accurate figure.
