I asked an electrician I've used before for a quote on replacing the fronts of some sockets and changing some light fixtures. Fairly sure it will be comfortably under a days work. He has quoted for every specified part of the work, £100 here £150 there, and so the final quote is over £1k. Can I politely ask what his day rate is instead? Or should I just find someone cheaper?

I watched my FiL rewire a socket for us and had no idea how easy it would be. Watched lots of YouTube to make sure I was going to be doing it all ok going forwards.

The key to rewiring sockets / light fittings etc (apart from turning off at the CU) is taking a photo of the wiring in place and replicating. Can't be easier.
