    Depends on location of nearest socket to tap off, whether the wall is solid block or stud partition where the new socket is going on, floor boards may or may-not have to be lifted, is the house a bungalow or 2 story

    Hi, it's for a socket on an external wall, i'm guessing it could come either from the attic or under the floor boards across the room (its a small box room)...just looking for a rough number so I'm not shocked when i get a quote.....or to save both me and the electrician the bother of getting a quote if it too much

    id say around 60 to 80 euro, if you want the socket flush the wall will have to be chased a cheaper quicker way would be to have it surface mounted but this way doesn't look as good. probably best to get a sparks to have a look to see what circuit to take it off etc. Where do you live?
