  • One written fixed price for the full scope — no open-ended hours.
  • Deposit of 10–20% at most; balance after you inspect the work.
  • Any extra work agreed and priced in writing before it starts.
  • A full rewire of an empty 3-bed is about 5–8 working days for two electricians.
  • Making good plaster is often excluded — check.
