Typical rates for electricians in Reading start from around £60-£80/hour for standard domestic work. Emergency or out-of-hours service may cost more, and there may be a call-out or diagnosis fee.
Larger jobs (rewires, full consumer unit replacements, EV charger installations) often come with fixed or day-rate quotes. We always give you a written estimate and explain any additional material or regulatory cost.
Check that the electrician is registered with recognised bodies like NAPIT or NICEIC, and asks for BS 7671 compliance and Part P registration for domestic work. Request to view their certifications and insurance.
Look for customer reviews (Google, Checkatrade etc.), request references, and confirm they issue proper certificates (EIC, EICR etc.) when work is complete—this helps with insurance or future property sales.
Electrical emergencies include loss of power, burning smells, sparking sockets or switches, exposed live wires, or water contact with electrics. Any of these require immediate professional attention.
If unsafe, turn off power at the consumer unit, and call an electrician who offers 24/7 emergency service. Don’t attempt DIY work on dangerous faults.
After work you should receive the appropriate certificate: e.g. Electrical Installation Certificate, Minor Works Certificate, or EICR report if relevant. Also any Building Regulations compliance and notices if the work was notifiable under Part P.
For commercial jobs you may get as-built drawings, test data, warranties. Keep all documents safe; they matter for insurance, letting, resale.
Some minor tasks (like replacing a switch or fitting lamps) are ok if they don’t touch the fixed wiring. But most significant domestic electrical work is regulated under Part P of the Building Regulations.
Work like new circuits, consumer unit changes or wiring in bathrooms usually requires a registered electrician. DIY mistakes can lead to safety risks, insurance or legal issues—and may affect property sale.
