Maharagama and the newer schemes around Kottawa have relatively modern wiring, so electricians here are called more for additions than for faults: extra points, outdoor lighting, water pumps and air conditioning circuits.

What to expect

  • Professionals working across Maharagama, Kottawa and the newer housing schemes
  • Circuits isolated and tested before any work at the board
  • A written quote naming the cable, breaker and accessory brands
  • Insulation and earth testing after the work, with the result shown to you

Helpful tips

Batch your additions into one visit. The call-out is the fixed cost, so adding six points at Rs 2,500 to Rs 6,000 each in a single visit is far cheaper than calling the electrician back three times.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about hiring in Maharagama

Questions about finding a tradesperson in Maharagama? Here are the answers homeowners ask most.

About Rs 2,500 to Rs 6,000 per point, more if the wall has to be chased and replastered. Doing several in one visit reduces the effective cost of each because the call-out and setup are shared.

Yes. Each unit should have its own correctly rated circuit and breaker rather than sharing a socket ring. It is not only a safety requirement but the reason a properly installed unit does not trip the house when it starts.
