What changes the price of emergency call-out
The starting price of £90 an hour for an out of hours emergency electrician covers our attendance, the first checks on the failed circuit or board, and making the property safe enough to leave.
- That figure is a starting price, not a fixed or guaranteed total.
- Use the published phone or online booking. The hourly rate applies when we attend outside opening hours.
- If the fault needs parts or a later visit, we quote that work in writing before we start it.

“Ten years on Colchester housing stock and I have seen most of it: terraces where the lighting circuit has been extended once too often, boards fitted before RCDs were standard, new builds with sockets nowhere near the kitchen. I check the earthing, the bonding and whether the supply will carry another load before I price anything, because the age of a house settles nothing on its own.”

How much does an electrician make in scotland?
Our rate for this work is £90 per hour. The price moves with access, the age and condition of the existing installation, and how much making good the job leaves behind — all of which we confirm before work starts.
How much does an emergency electrician cost?
Out of hours emergency electrician attendance starts at £90 an hour. That starting price buys the visit, the first tests and making the property safe. Extra parts and later work are quoted in writing first.
Do you come out at night and at weekends?
Use the published phone or online booking. Booked work sits in opening hours. When you need us outside those hours the out of hours rate of £90 an hour applies.
Will you replace the fuse board on the same visit?
Only if the board can be made safe and we have already given you a written price. A consumer unit replacement starts at £450. Many emergency visits isolate the failed board and book the replacement for the next working day.
