I've just had a small commercial job done on a new building unit. The budget for the electrical work was 10K which was written in to the contract with the supplier. During the project a few modifications to the spec were made which were verbally agreed. It was agreed between me and the electrical company that everything used in the building scope would be pretty much the cheapest on the market from electrical wholesalers (so no MK!) as we have to demolish the building in 18 months time (long story!)
I was advised that the additional work would be peanuts and can be done within the same timescale as the rest of the job, however, they have now submitted a bill which comes to over £18K!..... £8k over budget.
In a nutshell, the prices charged as below (all ex. VAT):
2 compartment Dado trunking = £37 per metre (installed) x 62m
Installation of double sockets to dado trunking per unit = £55 each x 53
Installation of 600x600 modular recessed light to ceiling grid = £65 each x 86
Install 1 x 3phase DB 14way including breakers (no RCD's) = £725
1st fix of 40 x double data points to dado trunking (CAT 5E cable and back box only) = £2516 ( £62.19 each)
1 x 2.4m power pole from suspended ceiling to floor inc. 2 x 1 gang sockets = £590
There are various other installs as well, but I am not overly bothered about the price of them so I won't go too much in to it.
Appreciate any feedback you have.
Many Thanks
