hello all...whats the typical cost for a new consumer unit fitted and the old wired fuse box removed im in a semi detached house in leicester.....i have checked previous posts on here but i cant find anything

thanks in advance :)
 
Ball park, around £500.

That’s dependant on geographic location, awkwardness of where the board is, number of circuits….
Possible extra costs if there is an underlying fault that could prevent RCDs from operating.

Split rcd boards are cheaper, and you could request not to have surge protection fitted, but most electricians these days go for full RCBO boards,
