Question

has anyone got a rough idea on how much a sparky....?

Answer 1

Nobody can tell you, as you're not giving enough information.



A cooker socket must be on it's own breaker in the fuse box.



So your job may entail putting a new wire from the fusebox all the way to the kitchen, if you don't have one already there somewhere.



That wire can't just trail across the floor, so it's going to cost a bit to get it done properly so that it is behind the plaster on the wall and under the floorboards over the full distance of fusebox to cooker.



However, if you already have one there, and just want him to replace the existing one with a new one in the same place, then of course that would be cheaper.

Answer 2

this job is covered by part p regs so you can't do it your self but assuming you already have a cooker its just a matter of moving or extending the wiring so shouldn't be to expensive

Answer 3

Your wife is right, In the UK it is now illegal for unqualified people to undertake electrical installations of this nature, The works must be carried out by a qualified electrician and a certificate issued on completion of the work. As to the provision of your new cooker point there are so many variables it's best to get a couple of quotes then decide. The last thing you want is a 30amp shock.

Answer 4

if you need a new point fitted and the kitchen doesnt have one fitted then it could be £150

if you need an existing point moved to a new position the it will be about 50-100

if you already have a cooker fitted and you are replacing it with a new one in the same place then it should be £35 - £50



really depends on the spark though,

try to get one personally reccomended through a friend or relative

Answer 5

i'm assuming your uncle is talking with reference to using a bullet to place the canine down for the reason that he would be unable to have the money for the holiday to the vet. some vets will take money in case you ask, a shot is so lots greater non violent for dying than a bullet. After 15 years, a minimum of provide the canine that lots. Or, bypass beg acquaintances, kin, sell your workstation, and so on and take the canine to a vet and notice what the vet says. I comprehend you're able to desire to be youthful, yet arise for the canine.

Answer 6

jayktee

has the best answer

i am a fitter and this is what i would charge

but please use a trusted electrican not the bloke dowm the pub, the shock from this outlet is 3 time that of your ring main

Answer 7

I would suggest you use a proper sparky,first because every new work in a house must,according to health and safety regulations,be carried out from a qualified person and they can issue you with a certificate at completion.I am not disputing your ability,just if you ever came to sell the house and someone spotted this,It could cause a significant reduction to the asking price.Never mind that the socket you talking about is something like 640 volts,I think,so very deadly indeed if wired up wrong.If you have to have a wire from fuse box to behind the oven I would think it about a days work,plus materials.Wire can be attached to top of skirtings,through door frames and behind kitchen units for the cheapest option.

Answer 8

most electrical contract companies charge about 15 to 20 quid an hour, a one man band or someone on side should charge less... HOWEVER make sure he is niceic or eca approved in case of problems later as regs changed last year and he will have to be part p approved now and issue u a cert to say work complies etc same as gas (corgi ) etc etc

Answer 9

60 notes

Answer 10

If its a dual fuel range then the ovens will be about 7kw, if its all electric then it will be a much heavier load and will cost a bit more than I have suggested below.



A lot depends on the length of cable and access to floorboards and a route to conceal the cable, but if it was about 10m, and there was a suitable spare way in the board, I would be charging about £120.00 + VAT. But you should get 3 quotes.



PS. A cooker does not have a socket, it is hard wired to an isolator or connection point,



MCB- £7.00

6²mm t/e cable £12.00

Isolator and box - £11.00

Labour - £80.00-100.00

Answer 11

i cant imagine that it will be any more than £20 because its not a big job.
