Upgrade your home network with reliable and future-proof ethernet cable installation.
The cost of installing one or two cables in your home can range anywhere between $300 to $850, for larger projects you can expect anywhere between $1,200 to $6,000+. However several factors should be considered for network cable pricing when determining the actual cost of a residential cable installation project.
The number of cables required, the number of different locations where cables will need to be run, the type of cable required and the total hours required for the job are all variables that will determine the overall cost of a project.
You can use our Residential Instant Estimate Calculator to determine a rough estimate for your cable installation.
