Free electrician price list template, in US dollars
An electrician price list puts your service call, your hourly rate and the jobs you do every week — outlets, switches, fixtures, fans, breakers — on one page, in US dollars. It keeps phone quotes consistent and makes the bigger estimates easier to explain. Copy the free electrical price list template below, see it filled in for a small US shop, and work out your own numbers with our guide to pricing electrical work.

What goes on an electrician price list
Most residential electrical calls come from a short list of familiar tasks: replace an outlet, add a GFCI, hang a fixture, swap a breaker. Those suit flat prices. Bigger work — a panel upgrade, an EV charger, a new circuit — still deserves a written estimate after you've seen the panel, but a “from” price on the list tells a caller whether they're in the right range.
Every line needs the task, what it covers, the price and its unit. Be precise about the edges: is the fixture supplied, is the permit included, is there an existing box? Then the rules for every call: the service call, your hourly rate after it, the after-hours multiplier, and the date the list was set.
- Task name: outlet, switch, fixture, breaker, circuit
- What's included: device, labor, testing, existing box or new run
- The price and its unit: flat, per hour, per fixture or per can
- The service call and what it covers, or a minimum number of hours
- After-hours, evening and weekend rates
- What's extra: permits, wall patching, long wire runs
- The date the prices were set
Copy this electrician price list template
Copy the template and replace the brackets. Group it by the kind of work: outlets and switches, lighting and fans, then panel, circuits and larger installs. Put your license number at the top, where a homeowner checking it will find it.
If your area requires permits for some of this work, say on the list which lines include the permit and which add it. Larger jobs go on a written quote; our electrician estimate template shows one filled in. The skeleton:
- [Your business name] · [license #] · [phone] · Prices as of [date] · US dollars
- Service call: $[price] — includes [first hour]
- Outlets and switches
- [Task] — [what's included] — $[price] [flat / per device]
- Lighting and fans
- [Task] — [what's included] — $[price] [flat / per fixture / per can]
- Panel, circuits and larger installs
- [Task] — [what's included] — $[price] [from / flat]
- Labor after the first hour: $[rate] per hour
- Trip charge / minimum: $[…]
- Evenings and weekends: [+…%]
- Prices are a starting point; a written estimate confirms the job price
Sample electrician price list, filled in
Here is the template filled in for a small US residential electrical business. Device and fixture prices assume an existing box and wiring in good shape; the circuit, charger and panel prices are starting points, confirmed by a written estimate once the electrician has seen the panel.

|---|---|---|
| Service call, first hour included | $165 | Diagnosis and up to one hour of work |
| Labor after the first hour | $110 per hour | Billed in half hours |
| Evenings, weekends and holidays | 1.5× labor evenings · 2× weekends and holidays | On the service call and every hour after it |
| Replace an outlet, like for like | $125 per outlet | Standard outlet on an existing box |
| Replace with a GFCI outlet | $175 per outlet | GFCI device, wired and tested |
| Add a new outlet | $250 per outlet | On an existing circuit; wall patch extra |
| Outdoor weatherproof outlet | $275 per outlet | GFCI outlet with an in-use cover |
| Replace a light switch | $110 per switch | Standard switch or dimmer, existing box |
| Replace a light fixture | $175 per fixture | Client-supplied fixture on an existing box |
| Install a ceiling fan | $225 per fan | Fan-rated box already in place; fan supplied by client |
| Recessed light, new | $225 per can | Cut in, wired and trimmed; drywall patch extra |
| Replace a hardwired smoke detector | $150 each | Same-type detector, tested |
| Replace a circuit breaker | $195 each | Standard breaker, same size |
| Dedicated 20-amp circuit | $575 flat | New breaker and a short run; permit extra |
| EV charger installation | from $1,450 | Client's charger, on existing panel capacity |
| Electrical panel upgrade | from $1,850 | Size, permit and utility work confirmed on the estimate |
For illustration only — not averages, not Workeey data, not what Workeey users charge. Each price sits inside a published range: HomeAdvisor's electrician cost guide (updated June 19, 2026), which our electrical pricing guide cites, for the service call, hourly and after-hours rates, switches, fans, new outlets and the panel upgrade; HomeGuide's electrician cost per hour guide (written February 12, 2026) for outlets, GFCI, fixtures, recessed lights, smoke detectors, breakers, circuits and EV chargers.
How to build an electrician price list (or flat-rate price book)
A flat price for an outlet or a fixture is your hourly rate times the usual time, plus the device at your markup, plus a share of what it costs to keep you working — license, insurance, the van, the testers. A 45-minute GFCI swap is not three-quarters of an hour's pay once you count the drive and the device. The hourly rate calculator and markup calculator cover the two sums.
Electrical work rewards a clean split between small flat jobs and estimated ones. Anything that depends on what's behind the wall or inside the panel — new circuits, chargers, upgrades — gets a “from” price on the list and a real number on a written estimate. Good, better, best fits lighting well: a basic fixture, a fixture with a dimmer, or recessed cans.
- Flat price = hours × rate + device × markup + overhead
- Write which prices assume an existing box and sound wiring
- Use “from” prices for panel, circuit and charger work
- State the after-hours multiplier once instead of keeping a second list
- Re-check device and wire prices every six months
Your price list, inside Workeey
Workeey prices each electrical job from your own rates, saved once in Settings: hourly rate, travel per 20 minutes, a call-out charge (the least any job costs), the first hour, extra for evenings and weekends as a percent, your parts markup and a deposit percent. A quick estimate applies them the same way on every call, in US dollars.
Any line you add by hand — “GFCI outlet, $175” — is remembered with its price and waits as a one-tap chip on the next job, most-used first, so your price list builds itself from the work you really do. Your phone shares the estimate as a quote PDF with the deposit percent on it; Workeey never collects that deposit. The go-ahead comes from the customer to you, never through the app, and one tap makes it the invoice. Free: 23 quick estimates a month (unlimited on Pro), unlimited invoicing, no card.

What should be on an electrician price list?
Your service call and what it covers, your hourly rate, after-hours rates, flat prices for common tasks like outlets, switches, fixtures, fans and breakers, and “from” prices for larger work. Add your license number and the date the prices were set.
How much do electricians charge per hour in the US?
HomeAdvisor's electrician cost guide (updated June 19, 2026) gives $50 to $130 an hour, plus a service call of $100 to $200 for the first hour. Big cities run higher. Your own rate should come from your own costs.
Should electricians put prices on their website?
A service call price and a few common tasks marked “from” help callers decide. Leave panel and circuit work as “by estimate”, since the price depends on what you find, and say that a written estimate confirms every job.
How often should I update my electrical price list?
Every six months, and whenever copper, breakers or the devices you use most go up. Date each version so an old list never sets the price on a new job.
