## Socket installation prices

- Further sockets and any other work found are priced on their own before they are done.

## Extra sockets for homes and landlords

Homeowners and landlords add extra sockets when a wall has no spare outlet left for the next appliance.
- **No spare socket left:** A desk, TV or appliance has nowhere left to plug in on that wall.
- **Extension leads on the floor:** A trailing lead is doing the job of a proper extra socket.
- **Kitchen worktop clutter:** Kettles, toasters and chargers share one outlet on the worktop.
- **A rented house with too few outlets:** Landlords add sockets so tenants are not running leads between rooms.
