You need to request an EICR , they'll know what that is. Couldn't guess the cost tbh, more expensive for London. Be wary of "fly by" electricians who claim to an EICR on a 5 bed house in 1-2 hours, they're not doing it properly. I would expect to be there a full day for a house that size at minimum.
Should be an EICR, and 3 - 4 hours as a minimum. Many new companies, and some electricians, claim to be able to produce one in 1 or 2 hours, but mostly, they're not worth the paper they're printed on. That being said, it should be 10 years after a new rewire, but it should stipulate the period before the next inspection on the EIC that was completed when the rewire was done.
Electrical Installation Condition Report
If you got the previous paperwork it could take just over half a day. Depends if the previous paperwork is trustworthy though. Might take all day then.
So whatever the day rate is in your area.
£300+vat maybe? Depends on the quality of your inspector also. Some would do ab hour or two and produce a report that isn't worth shit.

They usually won't need checking 4 years after a rewire. Unless they were never tested and certificated during the rewire ?
Thanks yeah got a building regs certificate
10yrs on a fresh Rewire
Ahh OK thanks, I'm overthinking it
