TMB Electrics provides electrician day rate labour for homeowners, landlords and businesses around Banstead. You book hourly time for mixed electrical work in the home or workplace, and leave with the testing and documents that job needs.

## Electrician day rate prices

General electrical labour starts from £80 an hour and buys the electrician's time on your mixed job. Parts, fittings and certificates sit outside that hourly figure.
- General electrical labour (day rate): from £80/hr
- From £80 an hour for general electrical labour.
- The rate is a starting price for time on site, not a full day fee.
- Materials and certificates are extra, and a rewire, fuse board or EICR uses that service's own starting price.

## When to book an electrician by the hour

You book TMB Electrics by the hour when the work is mixed, short, or not a single job like a rewire or EICR.
- **Several small jobs in one visit:** Several small jobs in one house can share booked hours instead of separate quotes for each task.
- **A fault that still needs tracing:** A tripping circuit or dead socket needs time on site before the repair can be priced as a single job.
- **Work beside another trade:** A kitchen fitter or builder may need an electrician on the clock while other work is still going on.
- **A workplace that must keep trading:** A shop or office can book hours around trading times so staff keep power while the work is done.

## What is covered

Hourly labour covers the electrician's time on the mixed job you booked, from arrival through testing.

### Included
- Time on site for mixed electrical labour
- Fault tracing, small repairs and fittings within the booked hours
- Testing of the circuits worked on
- A written price for extra hours before they begin
- A minor works certificate when the labour needs one

### Not included
- Materials, fittings and cable
- A full house rewire, fuse board change or whole property EICR, which have their own starting prices

## What happens on the day

TMB Electrics arrives, carries out the booked hourly labour, then tests the circuits and leaves any certificate that job needs.
1. **Arrival and the job list:** We walk through the sockets, fittings or faults you want done in the hours you booked.
2. **Labour in the booked hours:** We carry out the electrical work and stop to price extra time or parts if the job grows.
3. **Testing and paperwork:** We test the circuits we worked on and leave a minor works certificate when the labour needs one.

## What you get from hourly electrical labour

You are left with the mixed electrical work finished in the hours you booked, tested, and written up when a certificate is required.
- **The jobs on your list done:** Sockets, switches, fittings or traced faults are finished within the time you booked.
- **A clear record of hours used:** You know how many hours were used and what that time cost at the starting rate from £80 an hour.
- **Testing and the right certificate:** Worked circuits are tested, with minor works paperwork when needed, or Part P notification when the work is notifiable.

## Electrician day rate questions

People booking TMB Electrics by the hour ask about the rate, parts, commercial visits and labour discounts.

### How much is an electrician per hour with TMB Electrics?

General electrical labour with TMB Electrics starts from £80 an hour for mixed work on site. That starting price buys time on site, not materials or a full EICR. Extra hours are priced in writing before they start.

### Do you charge a full day or only the hours used?

TMB Electrics bills the hours used at the starting rate from £80 an hour, not a full day fee. A short mixed job can be an hour or two. A longer list runs to the hours actually spent on site.

### Does the electrician day rate include parts and certificates?

No. The £80 an hour starting price is for labour time only. Fittings, cable and certificates are extra and quoted separately. A consumer unit, rewire or EICR uses that service's own starting price instead.

### Can a shop or office book an electrician by the hour?

Yes. TMB Electrics does commercial hourly labour as well as domestic. Work is planned around the premises so testing and documents are left when the hours are done. A shop or office books the hours needed on site rather than a single installation price.

### Do maintenance plans reduce the electrician day rate?

Yes. Bronze takes 5% off labour, Silver 10% and Gold 15%. The starting electrician day rate before those discounts is £80 an hour. Gold also includes two emergency make safe visits a year, billed as that service rather than ordinary hourly labour.
