Discuss What is a the going rate to replace an old plastic socket front to an chrome one? in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

It all depends, how well are the existing sockets terminated, sometimes the cores are cut ridiculously short inside the boxes then the L-N layout in the replacement sockets are configured opposite to the originals, then you get the kitchen accessories where some genius has tiled up to the edges so they're effectively grouted in. The list goes on.
