National Schedule of Rates - Box Set 1 2026/2027

National Schedule of Rates – Box Set 1 2026/2027

The National Schedule of Rates – Box Set 1 2026/2027 brings together three key National Schedule of Rates titles covering building works, electrical services and mechanical services. Supplied as a complete box set, it provides a convenient collection of cost and pricing references for professionals involved in building maintenance, repairs, building services, estimating and cost assessment.

Box Set 1 contains one copy of each of the Building Works Schedule, Electrical Schedule and Mechanical Schedule for the 2026/2027 edition.

Together, these schedules provide broad coverage across conventional building works and building services, making the box set a useful reference for contractors, quantity surveyors, estimators, building surveyors, facilities managers, property managers and maintenance professionals.

What's Included in Box Set 1?

• Building Works Schedule 2026/2027 – covering a broad range of building fabric, maintenance, repair, alteration and associated construction works.
• Electrical Schedule 2026/2027 – covering electrical services maintenance, repairs, alterations and associated Builders Work in Connection (BWIC) rates.
• Mechanical Schedule 2026/2027 – covering mechanical services maintenance and repairs, together with Builders Work in Connection (BWIC) rates.

Comprehensive Building Maintenance & Services Coverage

Box Set 1 combines three complementary National Schedule of Rates titles, providing a wider reference for the pricing and assessment of building maintenance and repair work.

The Building Works Schedule provides coverage across conventional building fabric and associated construction activities, while the Electrical and Mechanical Schedules provide specialist coverage for building services maintenance and repair.

The combination is particularly useful where a project involves several different trades or disciplines and costs need to be assessed across building, electrical and mechanical works.

Building Works Schedule 2026/2027

The Building Works Schedule is designed primarily for building maintenance, repairs and associated works to the building fabric. Its coverage includes a wide range of conventional building activities, providing cost guidance for areas such as demolition and alteration, groundwork, concrete, masonry, structural and timber work, cladding, waterproofing, partitions, windows, doors, finishes, paving and other building fabric works.

This provides the building works component of Box Set 1 and complements the specialist mechanical and electrical schedules.

Electrical Schedule 2026/2027

The Electrical Schedule is designed for electrical services maintenance and repairs, alterations and small works. It includes relevant SMM7 and NRM coverage for electrical supply, power and lighting, communications, security and control systems and associated building works.

Importantly, the Electrical Schedule also includes rates for Builders Work in Connection (BWIC) with Mechanical & Electrical Installations. This allows associated building works to be considered alongside electrical services work.

Mechanical Schedule 2026/2027

The Mechanical Schedule is designed for mechanical services maintenance and repairs and covers areas including mechanical heating, cooling and refrigeration, ventilation, air conditioning and piped supply systems.

The schedule also includes BWIC rates associated with Mechanical & Electrical Installations, providing cost guidance for associated building works required in connection with mechanical services.

Builders Work in Connection (BWIC)

A particularly useful feature of the Electrical and Mechanical schedules within Box Set 1 is the inclusion of Builders Work in Connection (BWIC) rates.

BWIC covers building works carried out in connection with mechanical and electrical services installations, maintenance, repairs and alterations. This can include associated modifications to the building fabric required to accommodate or complete services works.

Having BWIC rates alongside the specialist electrical and mechanical services rates provides a more complete cost reference when assessing building services projects.

Ideal for Building Maintenance & Cost Assessment

Box Set 1 is designed for professionals who need access to cost information across multiple areas of building maintenance and services. Bringing the three schedules together can help provide a consistent reference when estimating and assessing work across different disciplines.

It is particularly useful for:

• Quantity surveyors
• Building surveyors
• Estimators
• Building contractors
• Electrical contractors
• Mechanical services contractors
• Maintenance contractors
• Facilities managers
• Property managers
• Housing and property maintenance organisations
• Local authorities
• Housing associations
• Construction consultants
• Procurement professionals

One Box Set, Three Key NSR Titles

Instead of purchasing the three schedules separately, Box Set 1 provides one copy of each title in a single collection. This makes it a convenient option for professionals who require building works, electrical services and mechanical services cost information together.

The three schedules complement one another and provide a broader reference for maintenance, repair, alteration, estimating and cost assessment across conventional buildings.
