    I ain't no expert but have done loads of domestic elecs for myself. Assuming 2 days for a spark and a mate, £1000 should more than cover the labour. Add say another £1000 for materials and profit. Total 2 grand.

    Depends on the number of out lets each socket is normally £35 then if a new board with trips depending on type but with a rewiring more work is involved floor bords lifting chasers and plastering?
