Electrician prices for adding new socket
Changing an existing single socket to a double socket is straightforward and shouldn't cost too much. However, the price of additional mains sockets to your room can vary enormously. It all depends on whether the ring main needs extending and how easy it will be to do so. Therefore, prices like this are an example only.
