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.
Often it is easy to connect an electrical device, whether it is a domestic appliance, tv or lamp. You just put the plug into the socket and it works. But sometimes it is more complicated. For having a new power socket or light switch you need to know about power cables, what the meaning of their colours are and how to connect those in a safe and lasting way. A light switch is a bit more complicated than a power socket. And when you need two or more switches for one light then it gets even more difficult. And also when you have a number of powerful lamps involved then you should ask a professional electrician for advice and assistance. Because then – like for washing machines, dishwashers and electrical water boilers – you always need to check whether the group unit has sufficient power for those lamps. In those cases we always recommend hiring an electrician.
Connecting electrical devices
For calculating the capacity of your domestic electrical power supply system and for installing extra capacity you need to make use of an expert electrician.
Home repair service MrFix gets you a qualified electrician for this kind of expertise. They will connect your electrical systems and devices in a professional and safe way. We work quickly, conveniently and at fair rates.
Request an electrician hassle-free
It’s simple: fill out the web-form and we will match your job with the right professional within three hours. Easy, right?
How to request an electrician:
- Select the “JOB TYPE” and summarise the job under “JOB SUMMARY”
- You can add 1 or 2 photos from your PC, tablet or smartphone. This is not required but can be helpful!
- Make your “DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF JOB” as detailed as possible: please specify type of device and power consumption (number of Watts). And for installation: measures, space available, obstructions or other limitations.
- Choose if you prefer “An expert ASAP” or “First a quote”. If you choose “First a quote” then we will provide the expert’s estimate except if the job is bigger than ~€500 / 1 day of work. In the latter case we quote his fixed price, usually after a (paid) inspection visit.
