Swapping one light switch is the most ordinary electrical job in a Singapore flat, and the published price for it runs from $40 to $90 across the eight companies below. We read every rate off each company's own website, first on 8 September 2026 and again on 15 October, and the price lists have moved under us. Electrician24.sg now prints the lowest switch band at $40 to $80, after SG Handyman Engineering took its itemised list down; SG Handyman publishes a power-trip table instead, priced separately for office hours, after hours and 24/7 emergencies. Get Electrician has replaced its 29-line rate card with a single figure, from S$100 for any job, diagnosis included and typically absorbed into the bill if you go ahead. Daylight Electrician, the most reviewed name here at 4.9 from 3,269 Google reviews, starts the same switch at $90 and charges from $86 just to change a light bulb, though its rates are stated to include labour and transport. FixMove is open 24 hours with published bands, and it is the only one that says what its prices include: its terms state every figure on the site is GST-inclusive, and that only the hour you start moves the price, so a Saturday afternoon costs the same as a Wednesday afternoon. Two of the eight tell you to check the worker who turns up on EMA's register, FixMove on its licences page and Mr Electrician on its HDB LEW page. Electrician24.sg still advertises two different first-time discounts on the same page, 20% off in the hero and $20 off in the pricing table. And the thing none of them do: not a single company on this page publishes an EMA Licensed Electrical Worker number, even though EMA runs a public register you can search in two minutes.
One light switch, $40 at one firm and $90 at another, for the same swap.
> Quick view: cheapest published switch work is Electrician24.sg at $40 to $80; Daylight and Everyworks start at $90, and Get Electrician now quotes from S$100 for any job; not one of the eight publishes an LEW number.
WHAT CHANGED SINCE SEPTEMBER: Get Electrician has rebuilt its website, and the 29-line price list we read on 8 September, from a $55 to $75 light switch and a $150 to $160 ceiling fan to a $200 to $400 DB box and a $95 telephone point, is no longer on it. Its new Pricing page, re-read on 15 October 2026, lists 22 services from light installation to EV chargers and reinstatement works, and every service page we opened quotes the same single figure: from S$100, inclusive of on-site diagnostic assessment. HOW THE S$100 WORKS: the site says the call-out covers travel, the on-site inspection, the diagnosis and an explanation of the repair, and that if you go ahead with the quoted work it is typically absorbed into the agreed invoice. The pricing page now also advertises no hidden transport fees, although an older cost article on the same site still mentions a minimum $50 transport allowance, so ask which applies.THE CATCH: one dead switch now means S$100 before the work is itemised, against $40 to $80 at Electrician24.sg. Quotes are confirmed in writing before work starts, payment is PayNow, bank transfer or cash on completion, and completed work carries a workmanship warranty it does not put a length on. It describes itself as LEW without publishing a number, and its phone hotline runs 8am to 10pm daily on +65 9172 6611.BEST FOR: a fault you cannot diagnose yourself, where a S$100 diagnosis that rolls into the repair beats paying for both.

The most reviewed electrician in Singapore that we could verify, with a 4.9 rating from 3,269 Google reviews printed in its own footer, and a price grid that is unusually honest about the second unit. Replace a light bulb from $86, then from $43 per additional unit. Install or replace an LED light or a downlight from $105, then from $70 each. A light or ceiling light fitting from $120, then from $90. A hanging or deco light fitting from $90 where the point already exists, then from $60. A wall fan from $70 with an existing point, then from $40. Supply and install a single or double 13AMP power socket from $90, a lighting switch point from $90, a dimmer switch point from $90. Replace a power socket or a light switch from $90 for the first item, then from $50 each after that. The 15AMP aircon point, 13AMP washing machine point and 20AMP water heater point are all enquire-for-price.THE CATCH AND THE DEFENCE: those are the highest small-job floors on this page, more than double Electrician24.sg's $40 switch floor, and the defence is on the same page, because Daylight states its prices include labour and transport, and that the small token inspection charge may be waived if you engage them. Hours are 8am to 10pm daily, seven days, and its contact page lists five regional offices rather than one: West at 21 Bukit Batok Crescent #09-79, Central at 1090 Lower Delta Road #03-07J, East at 5 Tampines Central 6 #03-38, North at 21 Woodlands Close #03-25 and North-East at 5008 Ang Mo Kio Ave 5 #04-09. Each carries its own phone line, but all five print the same WhatsApp number, +65 8241 0032, and none of them takes walk-ins, so the branches are a coverage map rather than five places you can turn up at. The footer names the owner outright: powered by Everyworks Renovation & Maintenance Singapore.BEST FOR: a job you want done today by the outfit with the longest verifiable review record, if you can live with the entry price.
Inspection is a small token charge that Daylight says may be waived if you engage it for the job; quoted rates are stated to include labour and transport
Eight price lists, and only one of them tells you whether the number already has GST in it. FixMove's terms of service state that all prices on the site are inclusive of GST where applicable, at the current 9 per cent. Nobody else here says either way, which means a $90 switch at one firm and a $90 switch at FixMove are not the same $90. The rates are bands rather than fixed prices: socket replacement S$60 to S$120, light point install or replace S$80 to S$180, ceiling fan installation S$80 to S$220, a new power point without hacking S$120 to S$220, and power-trip fault tracing quoted by scope. Read the small print next to each band, because it is where the real money sits: a brand upgrade to Schneider or MK adds $20 to $40 on a socket, a smart or remote ceiling fan adds $40, and a short single 13A point on a suitable existing circuit actually starts from S$80 rather than the S$120 the band implies. DB box, MCB and RCCB work has moved off this list onto its own page, so do not read the general bands as covering a board swap.WHAT CHANGED SINCE WE FIRST CHECKED: the S$60 minimum charge on electrical work has gone, from both the price page and the terms, on a re-read on 18 September 2026.THE FEES TO READ FIRST: there is no standard call-out or inspection fee, but a S$10 fuel surcharge applies to every visit, and urgent service or an appointment time you choose adds one S$30 fee that is not deducted from the quotation. The hour you start is itself priced, and the table now sits in the terms of service: plus 50 per cent on the quoted labour between midnight and 6am, plus 30 per cent from 6am to 9am and again from 9pm to midnight, with 9am to 9pm at normal rates, applied to labour only and never to materials. The part worth knowing is what is not surcharged. Weekends and public holidays carry none, so a Saturday afternoon is charged at the same rate as a Wednesday afternoon, which is the opposite of the 2 to 2.5 times public-holiday premium Mr Electrician's market guide describes. Its licences page is also one of only two here that tells you to check the worker: it says customers may request the assigned worker's name or licence details before work starts and verify them on EMA's ELISE register. It runs 24 hours, Monday to Sunday, islandwide on +65 9823 7108, trading as ALL-IN-ONE FIX & MOVE, UEN 53505530K, and it starts work only after written approval.BEST FOR: a 2am power trip, a weekend job you do not want surcharged, and anyone comparing quotes on an all-in number.
Published prices are stated to be GST-inclusive, weekends and public holidays carry no time-of-day surcharge, and you may request the assigned LEW's name or licence details to check on EMA's ELISE register; a S$10 fuel surcharge still applies to every visit
Open 24 hours, 7 days, from a company that publishes its UEN.WHAT CHANGED SINCE 1 OCTOBER: the site that was serving its web host's Account Suspended page on 1 October was back online when we re-checked on 15 October 2026, but the itemised small-job list we read on 18 September ($40 to $75 for a light switch, $65 for a single power point, $65 to $160 for a ceiling fan, $200 to $450 for a 32A DB box) is no longer on it. Its socket, switch and lighting pages now ask for a photo and quote by reply.THE POWER-TRIP TABLE: what it publishes instead is more useful for the job that sends most people searching at night, because every line is priced three ways, regular hours (9am to 6pm), after hours and 24/7 emergency. Diagnostic inspection $50 / $80 / $100. Simple power-trip fix from $80 / $120 / $150. MCB replacement from $80 / $120 / $150. Circuit breaker replacement from $100 / $150 / $180. Wiring fault repair from $120 / $180 / $220. Overload circuit repair from $150 / $200 / $250. Distribution board repair from $200 / $280 / $350. That makes it the only company here that puts its own number on the night premium for the same job: after hours runs about 1.3 to 1.6 times the daytime rate, and an emergency about 1.7 to 2 times. Its homepage FAQ adds that minor repairs such as replacing a light fixture typically start from $50 to $80, and it states a 30-day guarantee on every job, with most repairs carrying a 30 to 90 day warranty. SG Handyman Engineering Pte Ltd, UEN 202443335C, 1 North Bridge Road #30-02 High Street Centre, on +65 8622 2244.BEST FOR: a power trip at an awkward hour, when you want to know the night rate before you call.
Power-trip diagnosis $50 in office hours, $80 after hours and $100 as a 24/7 emergency; 30-day guarantee on every job; 24-hour line on +65 8622 2244
SparkFlow's own blog argues that there is no honest universal price for an electrician, and then its homepage prints a from-price against every service anyway: electrical work from $40, ceiling fan installation from $120, water heater installation from $120, plumbing from $80, handyman work from $60, aircon servicing from $30, and painting on quote. That $40 is the lowest headline floor in this roundup, and it should be read as a starting point for a written quote rather than as the price of a job. What makes SparkFlow worth listing above better-known names is the paperwork. It publishes HDB registration HB-10-5499Z and BCA ME05 Electrical Engineering L1 on its own site, which is more checkable detail than any other company here offers, even though neither is an EMA LEW number. It also sells the appliance and the installation as one quote, which removes the usual argument between the shop and the electrician: Fanco, KDK, Crestar and Acorn ceiling fans from $188, a KDK instant water heater from $159, hobs and hoods, and pre-bundled packages including a Smart Home bundle from $999 with EnergyHub configuration included free.THE CATCH IS THE CALENDAR: Monday to Saturday 9am to 6pm, closed Sundays and public holidays, which rules it out for exactly the weekend power trip that sends most people searching. Contact +65 8069 1388, 9010 Tampines Street 93 #02-125.BEST FOR: a planned weekday job where you want the fan and the fitting on one invoice.
Smart Home bundle from $999 with EnergyHub configuration included free, and standard installation folded into the same quote
Now the lowest published light-switch band here at $40 to $80, after SG Handyman Engineering took its list down, and the cheapest published emergency call-out at $80, on a rate card that reads more clearly than most: power failure diagnosis $60 for 30 to 60 minutes, circuit breaker repair $80 to $150, light switch replacement $40 to $80, power point installation $60 to $120, ceiling fan installation $80 to $150, DB box upgrade $300 to $600, electrical safety inspection $120, and full house rewiring from $1,500. It also states the strongest plain-English guarantee on this page: if issues return within 90 days, it repairs them free. FOUR THINGS TO READ BEFORE YOU CALL. First, the discounts do not agree with each other. The hero banner offers 20% off your first service as a limited-time offer with no end date, while the pricing table underneath offers first-time customers $20 off any service, alongside 10% for senior citizens and 15% off multiple services. On a $60 diagnosis those are $12 and $20, so ask which one applies and get it in the WhatsApp thread. Second, the hours have changed. The page now advertises 24/7 availability including weekends and public holidays and a 30-minute arrival guarantee, and the Monday to Saturday 8am to 7pm office hours that used to sit in its footer are gone, but the opening hours in the site's own structured data still read 9am to 5pm daily, so confirm a night slot before relying on it. Third, that same structured data gives a price range of Transportation Fee $40 to $60, which appears nowhere on the visible rate card, so ask whether a transport fee is added. Fourth, the operator now has a name: the footer that read copyright Your Company Name on 18 September reads Electrician24.sg on 15 October, and the site data names the business as Handyman Power Service, which matches the uniform in its own job photo, Handyman Power Service Pte Ltd. Address 81 Koon Seng Road, +65 9812 0174.BEST FOR: a cheap after-hours diagnosis, with the discount confirmed in writing first.
First-time customers $20 off any service per the pricing table, seniors 10%, multiple services 15% off, and a 90-day free repair if the same issue returns; the hero banner separately advertises 20% off a first service, so confirm which applies, and whether the $40 to $60 transport fee in its site data is added
One of the most visible electrician brands in Singapore search results, with a 24-hour emergency line on +65 8484 0037 and an office at 3007 Ubi Road 1 #03-436. It is one of only three companies here that names a registered entity you can look up, MR ELECTRICIAN PTE. LTD., UEN 202110087H, alongside SG Handyman Engineering and FixMove. Its homepage promises transparent prices and no hidden fees, and describes its people as licensed electricians, LEW. It is also the second of two companies here that tells you to verify that claim rather than take it: its HDB residential LEW page says to check your LEW's validity on the ELISE portal before any electrical service starts, and its licensed-electrical-works page says you will be able to view an EMA licence card carrying the electrician's photo, name, identity card number and licence number. What it does not do is publish its own rate card. What it publishes instead is a pricing guide, and the guide is explicit that the numbers are market averages rather than the company's own quotes: a power outlet installation $80 to $150 per point, light switch replacement $40 to $100, a ceiling fan with light $150 to $300, a light fixture change $80 to $200, LED downlight installation $50 to $100 per light, adding a new circuit to the DB board $200 to $400, circuit breaker replacement $80 to $150, RCCB or ELCB installation $150 to $300, single room rewiring around $800 to $1,500, a full 4-room HDB rewiring $3,000 to $6,000, water heater installation $150 to $350 and an aircon power point $120 to $250. It also puts numbers on the hour, which most brands leave vague: general electrical work $60 to $120 an hour, LEW-certified work $100 to $200 an hour, an after-hours call-out $150 to $300 minimum, emergency repairs at 1.5 to 2 times normal rates, public holidays at 2 to 2.5 times, and a typical call-out fee of $30 to $50. Useful as a sanity check on anyone's quote, including its own.BEST FOR: a night or public-holiday callout where you want a benchmark for what the surcharge should look like.

Everyworks is the operator behind Daylight Electrician, and it says so in two places without anyone having to dig: Daylight's footer reads powered by Everyworks Renovation & Maintenance Singapore, and both brands publish the same WhatsApp number, +65 8241 0032, from the same building at 1090 Lower Delta Road, Everyworks at #03-07 and Daylight at #03-07J. Neither takes walk-ins. That matters for one practical reason. Messaging both is not a second quote, and the same applies to Mr Plumber, DW Aircon and A1 Handyman, which sit in the same network. Everyworks itself is a dispatch platform rather than a crew: it runs a WhatsApp smart diagnosis to work out what the job is, then routes it to a vetted partner, and it publishes a 30-Day Everyworks Guarantee on completed work, terms applying. It does publish an electrical rate card, just not on any electrician landing page. Its old /electrician-services-singapore/ address now redirects to the homepage, and the fourteen-line grid sits on everyworks.com/price instead, which is why most roundups report that Everyworks has no prices. Read it and the point of this entry changes: it is Daylight's grid line for line. Replace a light switch or a power socket from $90 with each additional one from $50. Replace a bulb from $86, each additional from $43. Install or replace an LED light or a downlight from $105, additional units from $70. A light or ceiling light fitting from $120, additional items from $90. A hanging or deco light fitting on an existing point from $90, a wall fan on an existing point from $70. Supply and install a 13A power point, a lighting switch point or a dimmer point, from $90 each, while the 15A aircon, 13A washing machine and 20A water heater points all read enquire for price. Same figures, same wording, same order as Daylight's page, and both state the rates include labour and transport. That is the firmest proof on this page that the two names are one rate card with two logos. Hours are 8am to 10pm daily on +65 6909 0990 or enquiry@everyworks.com.BEST FOR: a job that spans trades, a leaking pipe and a dead socket in one visit, where one coordinator is worth more than a published price.

Nothing above is a discount war. The spread from $40 to $90 on one light switch comes from three things, and all three are settled before anyone opens a toolbox.
The first is what the quoted rate is supposed to cover. Daylight states its prices include labour and transport, which is why its floors read highest. Get Electrician has gone the other way and now quotes one figure for every job, from S$100 with the diagnosis included, which it says is typically absorbed into the invoice if you go ahead. FixMove publishes no call-out fee and then adds $10 of fuel to every visit plus $30 if you want to choose the time.
The second is the second unit. This is the number that decides a real bill, and only one rate card here still publishes it properly, Daylight's, which Everyworks repeats line for line. Daylight drops from $90 to $50 for each additional socket or switch and from $86 to $43 for each extra bulb. Get Electrician used to publish second-unit rates too, a lighting point down to $30, a downlight to $25 and a second ceiling fan at $120, but they went with the rest of its rate card in October. If you have four dead switches, ask for the per-additional rate before you ask for the headline one.
The third is the hour. Mr Electrician's guide is the clearest map of what that costs across the trade: an after-hours call-out $150 to $300 minimum, emergency work at 1.5 to 2 times normal rates and public holidays at 2 to 2.5 times. Electrician24.sg's $80 emergency call-out is the cheapest published version of that, and SG Handyman and FixMove are the two that genuinely answer at 3am. SG Handyman now prints its own version for power trips: a $50 office-hours diagnosis becomes $80 after hours and $100 as an emergency. FixMove is also the one to read if the job can wait for a weekend. Its terms surcharge the start hour and nothing else, plus 50 per cent between midnight and 6am and plus 30 per cent from 6am to 9am and 9pm to midnight, applied to the quoted labour and never to materials, with weekends and public holidays carrying no surcharge at all. A Saturday afternoon there is charged like a Wednesday afternoon, which is the reverse of the trade norm Mr Electrician describes.
This is the comparison nobody runs, and it is worth up to 9 per cent of the bill. FixMove's terms of service state plainly that all prices on its site are inclusive of GST where applicable, at the current 9 per cent. On a S$120 socket replacement that is the whole price. Nobody else here says either way. Get Electrician, SG Handyman Engineering, SparkFlow, Electrician24.sg, Mr Electrician, Daylight and Everyworks all print figures without a word on the tax treatment, and Daylight's grid is explicit only about labour and transport being included, not GST.
That matters because it quietly reorders the table. Electrician24.sg's $40 to $80 switch and FixMove's $60 to $120 socket look far apart, but if the first turns out to be pre-GST and the second is not, the real gap is narrower than it reads. The fix is one sentence in the WhatsApp thread before anyone is dispatched: ask for the all-in figure including GST and transport, and keep the reply. A written all-in number is comparable across all eight companies; a headline rate is not.
Electrical work in a home or office in Singapore has to be carried out or supervised by a Licensed Electrical Worker. EMA's own guidance covers installing, repairing or modifying wiring, adding, extending or replacing socket outlets, switches and lighting points, and repairing or replacing the consumer control unit or circuit breakers. In other words, most of the price list above.
Not one of the eight companies on this page publishes an LEW number. Get Electrician and Mr Electrician both state that they are LEW without giving one. SparkFlow publishes the most checkable paperwork of anyone here, BCA ME05 Electrical Engineering L1 and HDB registration HB-10-5499Z, but neither of those is an LEW licence either. Two of the eight close the loop for you rather than leaving it. FixMove's licences page says customers may request the assigned worker's name or licence details before work starts and verify them on ELISE. Mr Electrician's HDB residential LEW page tells you to check your LEW's validity on the ELISE portal before any electrical service begins, and its licensed-electrical-works page says you will be able to view the EMA licence card itself. Neither hands you a number in advance, so you still have to ask.
Doing it yourself takes two minutes. Every LEW carries a licence card with a photo, name, identity card number and licence number, so ask to see the card when the electrician arrives. Then search EMA's e-Licence Information Services portal at ema.gov.sg, under Search for Licensed Workers, choosing the option for an electrical worker who offers services to consumers. The register returns the name, licence number, grade and current status.
Choose Electrician24.sg for the cheapest published switch, with the discount and any transport fee confirmed in writing. Choose SG Handyman Engineering for a power trip at any hour when you want the night rate known in advance, and Get Electrician for a fault you cannot diagnose yourself, where a S$100 diagnosis that rolls into the repair beats paying for both. Choose FixMove for a middle-of-the-night power trip, for a weekend job that nobody else will leave unsurcharged, and when you want the one quote here that already has GST in it. Choose SparkFlow for a planned weekday job where you want the fan and the installation on one invoice, and Daylight when the review record matters more than the entry price.
Whoever you call, do the same three things: send a photo on WhatsApp and get a range before dispatch, ask for one all-in figure that states whether transport and GST are inside it, and ask for the LEW number and check it on ELISE yourself.
For the most common small job, replacing one light switch, the published rates across the eight companies in this guide run from $40 to $90. Electrician24.sg lists $40 to $80, Mr Electrician's market guide $40 to $100, and Daylight Electrician from $90 with each additional switch or socket from $50, while Get Electrician now quotes any job from S$100 with the on-site diagnosis included. A socket replacement is broadly the same money, $60 to $120 at FixMove. Bigger jobs scale from there: a ceiling fan installation runs $80 to $220 across FixMove and Electrician24.sg, an aircon power point $120 to $250 on Mr Electrician's guide, a distribution board repair from $200 in office hours at SG Handyman Engineering, a DB box upgrade $300 to $600, and a full house rewiring from $1,500 at Electrician24.sg, with Mr Electrician's market guide putting a full 4-room HDB rewiring at $3,000 to $6,000. What moves the final bill most is not the headline rate. Ask three questions before booking: is there a minimum call-out charge, what does each additional unit cost, and what is the surcharge outside office hours.
Yes for almost everything on a household price list. EMA's guidance is that electrical work at home or in the office should be carried out or supervised by a Licensed Electrical Worker, and it names the jobs specifically: installing, repairing or modifying wiring, adding, extending or replacing socket outlets, switches or lighting points, and repairing or replacing the consumer control unit or circuit breakers. Checking is straightforward. Every LEW is issued a licence card carrying a photograph, name, identity card number and licence number, so ask to see it before work begins. Then search EMA's e-Licence Information Services portal at ema.gov.sg under Search for Licensed Workers, choosing the option for an electrical worker who offers services to consumers, and the register returns the name, licence number, grade and status. None of the eight companies in this guide publishes an LEW number on its own site. Get Electrician and Mr Electrician state they are LEW without giving a number, and SparkFlow publishes BCA ME05 Electrical Engineering L1 and HDB HB-10-5499Z, which are company registrations rather than an LEW licence. Two of them do tell you to check: FixMove's licences page says you may request the assigned worker's name or licence details before work starts and verify them on ELISE, and Mr Electrician's HDB residential LEW page says to check your LEW's validity on the ELISE portal before any electrical service begins.
Three of the eight here state round-the-clock operation. FixMove says it is open 24 hours, Monday to Sunday, islandwide. SG Handyman Engineering publishes 24 hours, 7 days a week. Mr Electrician runs a 24-hour emergency line on +65 8484 0037. Read the other five carefully, because the marketing and the footer sometimes disagree. Electrician24.sg now advertises 24/7 availability including weekends and public holidays, but the opening hours in its own site data still read 9am to 5pm daily. Daylight Electrician and Everyworks both run 8am to 10pm daily, which covers most evenings but not a 2am trip. SparkFlow is the most restricted at Monday to Saturday 9am to 6pm, closed on Sundays and public holidays. Get Electrician's phone hotline runs 8am to 10pm daily. Expect to pay for the hour whoever you call: Mr Electrician's guide puts an after-hours call-out at $150 to $300 minimum with emergency work at 1.5 to 2 times normal rates and public holidays at 2 to 2.5 times, Electrician24.sg publishes an $80 emergency call-out, and FixMove charges $30 simply for a slot you choose on top of a published labour multiplier of plus 50 per cent from midnight to 6am and plus 30 per cent from 6am to 9am and from 9pm to midnight, one of only two after-hours premiums any of the eight puts a number on; the other is SG Handyman Engineering's power-trip table, a $50 diagnosis in office hours, $80 after hours and $100 as an emergency. FixMove's terms also state that weekends and public holidays carry no surcharge at all, so a Saturday afternoon is charged like a Wednesday afternoon, which is the only published exception to the public-holiday premium in this guide.
They are two consumer brands run by one operator, and neither hides it. Daylight Electrician's own footer reads powered by Everyworks Renovation & Maintenance Singapore. Both publish the same WhatsApp number, +65 8241 0032, although their phone lines differ, Daylight on +65 6909 9921 and Everyworks on +65 6909 0990. Both work out of 1090 Lower Delta Road, Everyworks at #03-07 and Daylight at #03-07J, and neither takes walk-ins. The same network also covers Mr Plumber, DW Aircon and A1 Handyman, so messaging two of those names is not a second opinion. Both publish a full electrical price grid, and it is the same grid: a light switch or a power socket from $90 with each additional one from $50, a bulb from $86 with each additional from $43, an LED light or downlight from $105, a ceiling light fitting from $120, a wall fan from $70, and the 15A aircon, 13A washing machine and 20A water heater points all marked enquire for price. Same figures in the same order under both brands, with Everyworks' copy sitting on everyworks.com/price rather than on an electrician page, which is why it is often reported as publishing nothing. If you want a genuine second quote, get it from a different operator entirely.
There is no standard one, and the phrase itself is unreliable because the same money gets renamed. Among the companies here, Mr Electrician's market guide puts a typical call-out fee at $30 to $50. FixMove advertises no standard call-out or inspection fee at all, then publishes a $10 fuel surcharge on every visit and a $30 fee for urgent service or a customer-requested time slot; its old $60 minimum charge on electrical work was no longer on either its price page or its terms when we re-read them on 18 September 2026. Get Electrician now quotes a call-out and on-site diagnosis from S$100, which it says is typically absorbed into the invoice if you go ahead, and advertises no hidden transport fees. Electrician24.sg prices an emergency call-out at $80 outright, though its site data also lists a $40 to $60 transport fee. Daylight Electrician says its quoted rates already include labour and transport, and that the small token inspection charge may be waived if you engage it for the work. SG Handyman Engineering prices a power-trip diagnosis at $50 in office hours, $80 after hours and $100 as an emergency, while SparkFlow and Everyworks publish no call-out fee. The practical move is to ask for the all-in figure for your specific job, including GST, rather than asking whether there is a call-out fee, because the fee can be renamed and the total cannot. Only FixMove states its published prices already include GST; the other seven say nothing either way.
Usually the site does not say, and that silence is worth up to 9 per cent of your bill. Of the eight companies in this guide, only FixMove states its position: its terms of service say all prices on the site are inclusive of Goods and Services Tax where applicable, at the current rate of 9 per cent. Get Electrician, SG Handyman Engineering, SparkFlow, Electrician24.sg, Mr Electrician, Daylight Electrician and Everyworks all publish figures without saying whether GST is inside them. Daylight comes closest by stating that its rates include labour and transport, but that is not the same statement. The practical effect is that a $90 headline at one firm and a $90 headline at another may be $8 apart once the invoice arrives, which is enough to change the order of the cheaper entries here. Before anyone is dispatched, ask for a single all-in figure in writing that states whether GST and transport are inside it, and keep the reply in the WhatsApp thread. An all-in number is comparable between companies; a headline rate is not.
