Frequently asked questions

How much has electrical repairs and rewiring inflation increased since 2015?
The ONS CPIH sub-index for Services for maintenance and repair of the dwelling (category 04.3.2) rose from 100.0 in 2015 to 110.6 in January 2026 — a rise of 10.6%. The 12-month change (Jan-25 to Jan-26) was +0.6%.
Which UK region has the highest electrical work labour costs?
Based on ONS ASHE 2025, London consistently has the highest median earnings for most trade occupations. For Electricians and electrical fitters (SOC 5241), the London median is £40,864/year vs the national median of £39,647/year.
Why does the GSPI not vary by region?
The ONS CPIH is a national (UK-wide) index and does not publish regional sub-indices for most service categories. Regional variation is therefore captured via ONS ASHE labour cost data (which does vary by region), not via a separate regional CPIH. The GSPI is the same for a given service type across all regions; only the labour context differs.
