Electrician prices in Singapore: how we collected the data
Every figure on this page is a rate that an electrical company in the HomezyPro directory prints on its own website or price list. We did not request quotes or adjust any number. Each line is that company's lowest rate for the job, quoted as printed with its unit, and each table row links to its source. Where a company prints a range, we show both ends. The counts show how many companies publish a line for each job. A small count means a handful of price lists, not the whole trade. Our method is set out in how HomezyPro sources prices.
Call-out charges
FROM THE HOMEZYPRO DIRECTORY
Published call-out rates
For the most common unit (per visit), the lowest published call-out rates from 4 companies run from S$40 to S$300 per visit, per visit, before any repair. Each figure is one company's own advertised rate with its conditions, not a quote.
See 4 published call-out rates and sources
| Company | Service as listed | Rate | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fix My Heater | Transport & inspection fee (waived when repair proceeds) | S$40 per visit | fixmyheater.sg |
| Sin & Goh Electrical Engineering | Basic attendance / call-out fee | S$40 to S$80 per visit | wireman.com.sg |
| Yeobuild HomeRepair | Call-Out Charges | S$70.85 per visit | yeobuild.com.sg |
| Mirza M&E Engineering Pte.Ltd. | Call-out | S$300 per visit | mirzaengineering.com.sg |
Four companies publish a call-out line, and all four price it per visit. Their lowest published rates run from S$40 to S$300 per visit. The two middle rates differ, so there is no single middle figure. What the fee buys varies. One S$40 per visit line is a transport and inspection fee that is waived when the repair proceeds. Another prints S$40 to S$80 per visit for basic attendance, a third prints S$70.85 per visit and the fourth prints S$300 per visit. When you weigh up an electrician call out fee in Singapore, the waiver can matter as much as the number. Our electrician call-out fee guide covers the rest.
Power points
FROM THE HOMEZYPRO DIRECTORY
Published power point installation rates
For the most common unit (per job), the lowest published power point installation rates from 7 companies run from S$28 to S$90 per job (middle rate S$75), for one 13A socket point. The middle figure is a real published rate, not an average.
See 9 published power point installation rates and sources
| Company | Service as listed | Rate | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Skyteam Electrical Pte Ltd | Additional wall sockets (3-pin, 13A) | S$28 per job | skyteamelectrical.sg |
| AVV Engineering Pte Ltd | Replace Power Socket | From S$30 per job | avvelectrical.com |
| Electrician24 Singapore | Power Point Installation | S$60 to S$120 per job | electrician24.sg |
| Yong Jin Solutions Engineering Pte Ltd | Power socket installation | From S$60 to S$130+ per point | yongjinelectrical.sg |
| Mr Electrician Pte Ltd | Single Power Point | S$65 | mrelectrician.sg |
| Saikon Contractors | Single 13A socket | S$75 per job | saikon.com.sg |
| Lito Electrical Service | Additional power socket point | From S$80 per job | litoelectrical.com |
| 81 Electrical | Double power point (13A x2) | From S$90 per job | 81electrical.com |
| Spower Electrician Services | Supply and install single or double 13A power socket (non-conceal) | From S$90 per job | spower.com.sg |
Nine companies publish a power point line. Seven of them price it per job. Their lowest published rates run from S$28 to S$90 per job, and S$75 per job is the middle company's rate: one real price list, not a blend of several.
Read the service names before the numbers. The S$28 per job line is for additional 13A sockets. "Replace Power Socket", from S$30 per job, swaps an existing socket rather than adding a new point. One company prints S$60 to S$130+ per point, and another lists a single power point at S$65, printed without a unit. The two S$90 per job lines are for a double socket and for a non-concealed supply and install. Our power point installation cost guide explains what moves the price.
Power trip troubleshooting
FROM THE HOMEZYPRO DIRECTORY
Published power trip troubleshooting rates
For the most common unit (per job), the lowest published power trip troubleshooting rates from 3 companies run from S$50 to S$50 per job (middle rate S$50), to trace and fix one power trip. The middle figure is a real published rate, not an average.
See 3 published power trip troubleshooting rates and sources
| Company | Service as listed | Rate | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lito Electrical Service | Power Trip Troubleshooting | From S$50 per job | litoelectrical.com |
| Repair.sg | Resolve power trip | From S$50 per job | repair.sg |
| Sin & Goh Electrical Engineering | Power trip troubleshooting | S$50 to S$200 per job | wireman.com.sg |
Three companies publish a power trip troubleshooting line, all priced per job, and all three lowest published rates are S$50 per job. One of them prints a range of S$50 to S$200 per job, which shows how far a bill can move once the fault is traced. Ask whether the rate covers only finding the fault or the fix as well, because a damaged socket or a faulty appliance may be a separate item. See power trip repair cost for more.
Isolators
FROM THE HOMEZYPRO DIRECTORY
Published isolator rates
For the most common unit (per job), the lowest published isolator rates from 5 companies run from S$60 to S$170 per job (middle rate S$120), for one isolator. The middle figure is a real published rate, not an average.
See 5 published isolator rates and sources
| Company | Service as listed | Rate | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fix My Heater | ELCB / Isolator Switch | S$60 to S$100 per job | fixmyheater.sg |

| Yong Jin Solutions Engineering Pte Ltd | Aircon isolator installation | From S$120 to S$180+ per job | yongjinelectrical.sg |
| 81 Electrical | Aircon isolator (15A / 20A) | From S$160 per job | 81electrical.com |
| Saikon Contractors | 20A isolator point for aircon compressor | S$170 per job | saikon.com.sg |
Five companies publish an isolator line, all priced per job. Their lowest published rates run from S$60 to S$170 per job, and S$120 per job is the middle company's rate. Most lines are written for aircon: one prints from S$120 to S$180+ per job, another from S$160 per job, and a 20A compressor isolator is S$170 per job. The S$60 line, which runs to S$100 per job, covers a breaker and an isolator switch together.
Older flats may need a permit. HDB says a new 15A power point or 20A isolator needs an HDB permit in flats with a 30A main switch. Flats with a 40A main switch, or flats upgraded under the Main Upgrading Programme (MUP) or the Home Improvement Programme (HIP), need no permit. A 20A isolator is allowed only for aircon installation. Flats have had 40A main switches since 1994. Our isolator installation cost guide has more detail.
DB box replacement
FROM THE HOMEZYPRO DIRECTORY
Published DB box replacement rates
For the most common unit (per job), the lowest published DB box replacement rates from 4 companies run from S$280 to S$320 per job, to replace or upgrade the DB box.

| Mr Electrician Pte Ltd | MCB & DB Box SP 40A 18P | S$450 | mrelectrician.sg |
Five companies publish a DB box replacement line. Four of them price it per job, and their lowest published rates run from S$280 to S$320 per job. The two middle rates differ, so no middle figure is shown. The fifth line, S$450, is printed without a unit. Some ranges are wide: one company prints S$280 to S$480 per job, and another prints S$300 to S$600 per job for an upgrade. One S$320 per job line is labelled for a 2-room flat, so ask that company what it charges for your flat type. The DB box replacement cost guide covers what changes the figure.
Whole-home rewiring
FROM THE HOMEZYPRO DIRECTORY
Published whole-home rewiring rates
For the most common unit (per job), the lowest published whole-home rewiring rates from 5 companies run from S$1,500 to S$2,800 per job (middle rate S$1,890), for a whole flat or house; each company's lowest package, usually its smallest flat type. The middle figure is a real published rate, not an average.

|---|---|---|---|
| Electrician24 Singapore | Full House Rewiring | From S$1,500 per job | electrician24.sg |

| Active Power Electrical Engineering Pte. Ltd | Our HDB Electrical Rewiring Cost (Singapore) | S$2,800 per job | activepowerelectrical.com |
Five companies publish a whole-home rewiring line, all priced per job. Their lowest published rates run from S$1,500 to S$2,800 per job, and S$1,890 per job is the middle company's rate. Each figure is that company's smallest package. Two lines name a 3-room HDB flat: one prints S$1,800 to S$2,500 per job and the other from S$2,500 per job. These entry packages may not describe a 5-room flat, a condo unit or a landed house, so ask for the package that fits your home. Any HDB rewiring price you receive should state the flat type and the number of points it assumes. Our HDB rewiring cost guide goes further.

Compare electriciansReading an electrical quote
Start with who will do the work. According to the Energy Market Authority (EMA), electrical work at home, including installing, repairing or modifying wiring, should be carried out or supervised by a Licensed Electrical Worker (LEW). EMA says electrical work in an HDB flat needs a Licensed Electrician, the class of LEW approved for loads of up to 45kVA. In a landed house, the work also needs a Licensed Electrical Worker.
Next, separate parts from labour. A socket price might cover only the faceplate, or it might also include the cable, trunking and breaker. A rewiring package should say how many points it includes and whether a new DB box is part of it. Before work starts, ask how anything outside the quoted scope will be charged. The electrical quote checklist lists the lines to look for.
Questions
How many electricians publish a call-out charge?
Four companies in the directory publish a call-out line, and all of them price it per visit. Their lowest published rates run from S$40 to S$300 per visit. The two middle rates differ, so there is no middle figure. One company waives its fee when the repair proceeds.
Why do rewiring prices vary so much?
Because each package covers a different home and a different scope. The five lines show each company's smallest package, and two of them name a 3-room HDB flat. Flat size, the number of points and whether a new DB box is included all change the job, so ask for a price for your own flat type.
Is the call-out charge on top of the repair?
Sometimes. One published line is a transport and inspection fee that is waived when the repair proceeds. Other companies print a call-out or attendance charge with no such note. Before the visit, ask whether the charge comes off the repair bill or is added to it.
Do published prices include GST?
Not always. This page shows each rate exactly as the company printed it, and we do not add GST. Before you agree to a job, check whether the quote says GST is included, and ask for the total amount you will pay.
Does a power point price include the cable run?
Not necessarily. Some lines cover only the socket, and one is labelled non-conceal. In an HDB flat, new wiring is not embedded in walls or plaster. It runs in surface trunking, above a false ceiling or behind carpentry. Ask how much cable and trunking the price includes.
Do I need an LEW for these jobs?
Yes. EMA says electrical work in an HDB flat needs a Licensed Electrician, the class of LEW approved for loads of up to 45kVA. In a landed house, use a Licensed Electrical Worker. Ask to see the licence before any wiring work starts.
