Hi all recently did a EICR which has failed on a few things
Need to give a price to rectify it all & bring up to current regs.
Current set up is link blocks extend tails to far garage wall then are split over3 wylex rewirables 2 4 way & 1 6 way, also to 2 single way units one doing another 6 way in self contained flat in the loft & 1 doing a shower. total of 16 circuits in garage various boards, some may need extending etc
Need to do gas & water bonds
gona put in two CU one for house one for externals as various things required out there,
need to put right some other minor failing codes around house & then investigate some circuits more in detail due to some failing test results & some poor ones.
Just wondering what people might charge for it all, i know its hard without looking at it but just after a rough idea as i feel its more than 1 days work, quite possibly 2 full days depending how things go with remedials investigating. Its not just a standard CU change with the amount of circuits etc, but when i start adding materials cost in plus 2 days labour it starts looking a very expensive CU change which is my concern!
That's not even factoring in the externals work wanted, involving a facility to kill all garden supplies via a switch in the decorated conservatory wall & separate switches for various garden items from the same place via a contactor arrangement in garage!
That included due to routings being a pig etc i estimate 3-4 days maybe but the cost then goes wild i feel or maybe im too slow or undervalue our profession to much & worry about the customers cost too much?
I dunno, still new to this domestic stuff lol
 
Never under price as once you do, customers will expect all the time. Usually 300 plus for CU change. I tend to walk if they try to haggle as believe the level of skill we have deserves a good rate of pay! :) Just saying
