Evening all,
This is a ridiculously long thread, so I dont expect anyone to read it all so I think I'm just looking to see if I'm in the right ball park. I have a friend (experienced electrician) helping me with this job and he will look over the quote as well, but I'd appreciate some opinions from you guys as well in the meantime.
I fully appreciate it's impossible to give much advice without having a lot more information, I think I'm looking for 'yeah, that looks about right' or, 'no thats way too much or too little' if possible.
Very briefly.. RCD protection on all circuits, Main bonding and earthing ok.
My quote ÂŁ4953 (mainly priced p/point), based on all white sockets/switches. Approx extra ÂŁ200 if wants LED GU10's.
Cheers guys! :uhoh2:
