Quoting software for UK electricians

Create clear, professional electrical quotes from rough site notes. TailoredQuote drafts the scope, structures the work, adds your branding, and creates a PDF ready to send. You stay in control of every price.

Why electricians need better quoting

Electrical work is one of the most regulated trades in the UK. Every domestic installation must comply with Part P of the Building Regulations, and customers expect your quote to reflect that level of professionalism. A vague quote that says “rewire house £4,500” does not inspire confidence in a trade where safety and compliance are paramount.

TailoredQuote’s AI drafts the scope for you. Type your site notes in plain English, the AI structures the quote with line items covering circuits, accessories, testing and certification, and you review and set every price before sending. The AI drafts — you decide.

What your electrical quote should cover

A professional electrician’s quote should include:

• Consumer unit upgrade — replacement board, RCBOs or dual RCD split-load, surge protection device
• Full or partial rewire — cable routes, containment, first fix and second fix separated
• Lighting circuits — LED downlights, pendant points, dimmer switches, external lighting
• Socket circuits — ring finals, dedicated radials for cooker and shower, USB sockets
• Testing and certification — Electrical Installation Certificate, Minor Works Certificate, or EICR
• Part P compliance — building control notification, competent person self-certification
• EV charger installation — charger unit, dedicated supply, earthing, external isolator

TailoredQuote prompts you for the key details and drafts these sections automatically. You review, adjust, and add anything specific to the job.

Common exclusions to put on every electrician quote

Electrical work is governed by competent-person schemes and Part P. Clear exclusions stop disputes and document who is responsible for what:

• Builder’s work — chasing walls, lifting floors, channelling concrete, making good plaster (quote separately or assume builder)
• Decoration after first/second fix — touch-ups around new sockets, switches, light fittings
• Carpentry — kitchen plinth cuts, removing/replacing flooring for cable runs
• Unavoidable damage to existing decoration during cable installation (behind wallpaper, in voids)
• Existing fault diagnosis on circuits not in scope — quoted at separate hourly rate
• Existing wiring upgrades discovered during installation (rubber, lead, cloth-covered cable)
• Asbestos in fuse boxes, sockets or behind cable runs — PC sum until tested
• Earthing upgrade where existing system non-compliant (TT/TN-S to TN-C-S, gas/water bonding)
• Smart home integration / EV charger commissioning by manufacturer-approved engineer
• Building Regulations Part P notification — state whether included or excluded
• EICR / re-test fee separately quoted
• Replacement of customer-supplied fittings if found defective on installation
• VAT (where you’re VAT registered)
• Variations — any change of scope after acceptance is documented and re-quoted

Example: what you’d type into TailoredQuote

Common customer objection electricians face

“Why do I need certification for this?”

Homeowners often do not understand that certain electrical work — rewires, new circuits in kitchens and bathrooms, consumer unit replacements — is notifiable under Part P. A detailed, professionally presented quote that explains the testing and certification as separate line items shows the customer exactly what compliance is required and why. When your quote lists the Electrical Installation Certificate, the building control notification, and the Part P registration as part of the scope, the customer understands they are paying for safety and legal compliance — not just cable and sockets.

Optional: show the finished room

On the Pro plan, you can upload a room photo and describe the renovation. TailoredQuote generates an AI visual guide showing one interpretation of what the space could look like. Attach it to your quote PDF so the customer can picture the result before work starts. AI mockups are visual guides, not exact representations — the final result depends on materials and workmanship.
