Frequently asked questions

The cost of moving a light point on Zoofy is usually based on an hourly rate. For work related to (re)routing and connecting lighting, the rate is €69 per hour.

Your final total mainly depends on how far the light point needs to be moved and whether chasing/finishing is required. A small adjustment is often quicker than relocating the point to a completely new spot that requires extra drilling or neatly hiding cables.

On average, moving (or re-installing) a light point takes 1 to 3 hours, depending on the situation in your home and the complexity of the cable route.

If drilling through concrete is needed, the cable has to be rerouted, or you also want the old point properly capped/finished, the job will usually take longer.

An electrician makes sure your light ends up in the right place and everything is connected safely and neatly. The work often includes:

Preparation & safety
Power is switched off and the existing wiring is checked so the job can be done safely.

Creating the new route
Wiring is extended or rerouted to the new location. If needed, minor drilling or chasing is done to hide cables properly.

Connecting the new light point
The new point is installed and connected (e.g., for a ceiling or wall light).

Capping the old point & testing
The old light point is safely capped (if applicable) and everything is tested to make sure it works correctly.

Zoofy electricians are vetted for craftsmanship and reliability, and you can read customer reviews in advance.

Zoofy only works with professionals who have an average rating of 9.2 or higher

After the job, you can contact Zoofy if you have questions or if something needs attention. By law, the professional must provide warranty on the work carried out.

For extra peace of mind, Zoofy also offers an optional paid warranty package. This is additional coverage on top of the professional’s legal warranty.

In most cases, yes. Zoofy has a large network of electricians throughout the Netherlands, so a suitable professional is usually available quickly.

If it doesn’t work out in a rare case (for example, extremely short notice or a very specific situation), you’ll be informed as soon as possible.

You always pay via Zoofy—never directly to the professional (no on-site card payments and no cash). Once the job is finished, the professional shows you a QR code so you can pay quickly and securely via iDEAL.

You can also pay via the invoice you receive by email, but paying via the QR code is typically the fastest and easiest option.
