πŸ’‘ How Much Does Electrical Work Cost?

Electrical costs vary by project scope. A full house rewire runs $6–$10 per square foot ($9,000–$15,000 for a 1,500 sq ft home). A panel upgrade from 100A to 200A costs $2,500–$4,500. Adding a new 20A circuit costs $200–$400 per circuit including materials and labor.

Electricians charge $50–$100/hour depending on region and experience. Permits are required for most electrical work and cost $100–$500. Always hire a licensed electrician β€” DIY electrical work can void insurance, fail inspection, and create fire hazards.

Adding 4 new circuits: $300 materials + $800 labor + $150 permit = $1,250 total. Full rewire of a 1,500 sq ft home: $3,600 materials + $7,400 labor + $500 permit = $11,500.
