Electric Cooker Installation London — From £100 Fixed

Electric cooker installation in London — from £100 fixed, certificate included

When you need electric cooker installation in London, our certified engineers cover every London postcode with a fixed price of £100 — no call-out fee, no hidden charges, and an electrical safety certificate included free on every installation. We install freestanding electric cookers, electric range cookers and induction cookers across all London boroughs. Old cooker removal is available as a separate £25 add-on.

Most electric cooker installations in London are completed within 1 to 1.5 hours. Where a new dedicated 32-amp or 45-amp cooker circuit is required — for example when switching from a gas cooker to electric, or when upgrading to a higher-powered range cooker — this is quoted separately at £150 and can be completed in the same visit.

Do you need a certified engineer to install an electric cooker in London?

Yes — and this is where most London homeowners and landlords get confused. Under Part P of the Building Regulations, electrical work in kitchens that involves connecting to or modifying a fixed wiring circuit — including a dedicated cooker circuit — must be carried out by a registered electrician or certified engineer. This is a legal requirement, not optional.

An electric cooker that simply plugs into a standard 13-amp socket (some compact models under 3kW) can technically be self-installed. However, the vast majority of full-size freestanding electric cookers — including all major brands such as Hotpoint, Beko, Zanussi, AEG and Bosch — require a hardwired 32-amp dedicated circuit. These must always be connected by a certified engineer. An uncertified connection will invalidate your home insurance and could fail a landlord electrical safety inspection.

Switching from gas cooker to electric cooker in London — what you need to know

Switching from a gas cooker to an electric cooker in London is one of the most common scenarios our engineers handle. It involves:

• Gas disconnection first — the existing gas cooker must be safely disconnected from the gas supply by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Our team handles both gas and electric, so this can be done in one visit.
• New cooker circuit — a new dedicated 32-amp or 45-amp cooker circuit must be installed from the fuse board to the cooker location. If this does not already exist, it must be added (£150 add-on). Most London properties that have only ever had gas cookers will not have an existing electric cooker circuit.
• New electric cooker installation — once the circuit is in place, the new electric cooker is connected, tested and the electrical safety certificate issued.

Electric cooker installation for London landlords — Part P compliance

London landlords must ensure all electrical work in their rental properties — including electric cooker installation — is carried out by a Part P registered engineer and documented with an electrical installation certificate. Since the introduction of the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (England) Regulations 2020, landlords must also ensure all electrical installations are inspected every 5 years. Our electrical safety certificate is fully compliant and valid for your landlord electrical records. We work with landlords, letting agents and property management companies across all London boroughs.

Induction cooker installation in London

An induction cooker is a type of electric cooker that uses electromagnetic fields to heat cookware directly rather than heating a surface element. Induction cookers have become increasingly popular in London kitchens — they heat faster, use less energy and are safer as the hob surface itself does not become hot.

Induction cookers require the same 32-amp or 45-amp dedicated circuit as a conventional electric cooker. Installation cost is £100 fixed. Our engineers install all major induction cooker brands including Samsung, Bosch, Neff, Siemens, AEG and Beko across all London areas.
