Garden room electrics
I currently have a garden shed with full power, with the garden circuit being a separate circuit on the main consumer unit. Power is provided to the shed via a buried 50mm armoured cable. I am planning on replacing the shed with a proper garden room. Is it possible to utilise the current electricity connection in the new garden room, effectively directly replacing the shed with the garden room? I would expect to have a secondary consumer unit in the garden room.

average cost for a rewire
I am purchasing a cottage which needs a full rewire. Some sockets are on the skirtings, and I can see the wiring chased outside of the walls. The cottage is 80SQM, and I would also require sockets to be added, and some light fixtures to be moved/added. I am just questioning, on average how much this could possibly cost.
