How the work is done
Pricing

| Outlet installation at a ready point (unit) | from 2,500 KZT |
| Grounded outlet on an existing line (unit) | from 3,000 KZT |

| New electrical point, materials not included (point) | from 5,000 KZT |
The final cost depends on the outlet type, whether the connection point is ready, and whether a new cable run is needed. Materials are billed separately.
An outlet looks like a simple thing, but it's often where more serious problems first show up: a loose contact, an overloaded circuit, worn wiring. That's why, when installing or replacing one, the electrician checks not just the outlet itself but the state of the connection behind it — a secure contact matters most for safety.
Outlets rated for wet areas are used in kitchens near a sink and in bathrooms. For heavy appliances — a stove, oven, water heater, or washing machine — a dedicated grounded outlet on a properly sized cable is fitted, rather than running things through power strips or extension cords.
If a room is short on outlets, it makes more sense to plan the number and placement upfront rather than add them one at a time. If a new cable run is needed to reach a point — say, a different part of the room — that can be handled within the same job, priced separately from the outlet itself.
Completed work carries a warranty of up to 3 years.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to replace an outlet?
Replacing an old outlet with a new one is from 2,500 KZT each. Fitting one at an already-prepared point is also from 2,500 KZT, and a grounded outlet on an existing line is from 3,000 KZT. The exact price depends on the outlet type and scope of work.
Does a washing machine or stove need a grounded outlet?
Yes — for heavy appliances like a washing machine, stove, oven, or water heater, a dedicated grounded outlet on a properly sized line is recommended, rather than connecting through a power strip or extension cord.
What if a room doesn't have enough outlets?
A new point can be installed — from 5,000 KZT without materials, if a cable run is needed. If outlets are short in several spots, it's better to plan the number and placement upfront rather than add them one at a time.
Why does an outlet spark or feel hot?
The most common causes are a loose contact, wear inside the outlet itself, or an overloaded circuit. It's worth having an electrician look at it without delay — this is a real warning sign.
Can an electrician replace an outlet at night?
Yes, we work 24/7 — but night and emergency call-outs are billed at a higher rate (from 6,000 KZT) than a daytime visit.
