Connecting light switches - Rate
MrFix rates are fair and transparent. For electricians we charge a fixed rate of €80 per hour including VAT and call-out charge.
When it comes to electricity one should be very careful. And in many cases it is wise to ask a professional to do the job. For having a new power socket or light switch you need to know about power cables, about the kind of cable you should use and about the meaning of the different colours of the cables.
When you need two or more switches for one light then it gets really difficult. Then with electrical cables it is extremely important that they are fixed in the right lasting way.
Many fires are caused by sparks from loosely connected cables! So it is not only knowing what to do but also about how to do it.
Home maintenance and repair service MrFix gets you a qualified electrician for your job. They will do it in a professional and safe way.
They work quickly, conveniently, efficiently and at fair and transparent rates.

It’s simple: fill out the web-form and we will match your job with the right professional within one hour.
How to make a clear request:

Tip from MrFix
Electrician Bodhi has two pieces of advice for the do-it-yourselfer regarding safety. Bodhi: ‘Occasionally test if the earth leakage switch still works. You can do this via the test button, often indicated with a T (for test.) Are you going to work with electricity yourself? Then always disconnect the power to the distribution board. Working with electricity can be life-threatening.”
It can have dramatic consequences. Read for example: Fire caused by washing machine has big consequences.
This happens when the electricity of your washing machine is not connected properly or when too many appliances are connected to one distribution board. Prevent this and call in an electrician in good time.
MrFix for every repair job
Beside an electrician MrFix can also arrange a qualified Painter, Plumber, or Handyman.
See the Help / FAQ page or call us on 020-675 0333 (Mon-Fri 10:00-14:00h & 15:00-19:00h and Sat & Sun 13:00-17:00h) for further information.

Tip by the expert
Safety first! Never work on an electrical installation with live electricity. Turn the power off first using the main switch or the fuse switch of the relevant circuit.
