Updated 4 min read
Choosing between electricians in Singapore comes down to three things: the price, whether a Licensed Electrical Worker does the job, and what happens if it fails again. Here are 6 electricians in Singapore, with the prices, EMA licence numbers and warranties each one publishes, checked on 19 October 2026, and a comparison table to help you shortlist.
How we chose and compared
- Facts only, from each company's own website. Published prices for common jobs, EMA licence numbers, warranties and fees, with links to every source.
- Listed by type, not by quality. We haven't hired these companies, so there are no star ratings. "Best for" means the company publishes something that suits that kind of job.
- No company paid to be here, and none is featured because of ServeGig.
- Photos are the companies' own, from their websites, credited under each image.
- "From" prices aren't quotes. Our electrician cost guide explains what changes the price, and our licensed electrician guide explains EMA's rules.

Frequently asked questions
How much does an electrician cost in Singapore?
On their own websites (checked 19 October 2026), small jobs start from about S$15 to S$120: replacing a switch is from S$20 at AVV Electrical (plus transport from S$40) and S$49 at Urban Company, and from S$90 at Daylight Electrician including transport. Rewiring is quoted per job; FixinGuru lists a 3-room HDB from S$2,800.
How much does it cost to fix a power trip?
Urban Company lists power trip resolution at S$90 (materials extra) and circuit breaker replacement at S$150. Others quote after finding the fault, so ask whether the inspection fee is waived if you go ahead.
How do I check an electrician's EMA licence?
Ask for the Licensed Electrical Worker (LEW) number and check it on EMA's ELISE portal. AVV Electrical (8/35550), 1st Electrical Services (8/32425) and Wireman (7/81470) publish licence numbers on their websites.
Do I need a licensed electrician for small jobs?
EMA's guidance is that electrical work, such as adding power points or changing wiring, should be done or supervised by a Licensed Electrical Worker. Swapping a light bulb doesn't need one, but anything touching the wiring or the circuit breaker does.
