Why do prices differ in Brighton?
South East labour rates sit 10-20% above the national average, pulled up by London-commutable demand. Materials cost roughly the same nationwide.
Brighton's Regency and Victorian stock is heavily converted into flats, and much of the centre sits in conservation areas, so external works and anything touching a listed facade needs more care and sometimes consent. Basement and multi-storey conversions make cable runs longer than the floor area suggests.
Nationally, an EICR runs £100–£250; in Brighton expect £110–£300. Get quotes from firms that actually cover your postcode: travel time is priced in whether you see it on the quote or not.
