How much does a rewiring project cost in Edinburgh?

Budgets for a rewiring project in Edinburgh generally land between £2,500–£5,500. Scottish costs generally sit below the UK average — Midlothian labour and materials are a real factor. Expect full house vs partial rewire and consumer unit upgrade and any EV charger to move the price most, along with property size and number of circuits. Getting two or three quotes is the best way to see a fair local price, which is exactly what our free matching service arranges.

Figures are a 2025 guide only — your matched installer will give you an accurate, no-obligation quote.

How long does it take?

On site, a rewiring project in Edinburgh generally runs to 3–10 days.

  • Use a certified electrician. Always choose a registered competent-person (e.g. NICEIC) for safety.
  • Plan around the disruption. A full rewire involves lifting floors and chasing walls — plan ahead.
  • Future-proof. Add extra sockets and data points now while walls are open.
