First Job estimate price check

[Bobby34]

I am in the process of doing my first quote and wanted to see what people thought in regards to my price as this is my first one since becoming registered so it would be great to see if I am in and around the right lines or whether I am way off the mark.

The job is as follows:

-Fitting three double sockets to an existing ring final and chasing the cables in the wall horizontally between them (I know not best practice but the client has concrete floors and is really against surface trunking).
-The chases will be about 3 meters either side of the existing socket, il fit some conduit for a bit of extra protection but the circuit is protected by an rcd and the cables will be in the safe zones so won`t need to go too deep.
-Some AV work chasing in and fitting 2 HDMI cables, a USB, coax and a Network cable to modular face plate on a wall from behind where the client wants the tv mounted to where the sky box/router is. (about 3m in total end to end).
-Making good by bonding and skimming all the chases
-The walls are all masonary.
-Tested and minor works cert issued.

I`m looking at it as a full days work possibly a day and a half with the plastering and fiddling with the coax and network cable so was going to charge £220 labour + Materials.

Does this sound about right or is it too under/over priced? If any of you experienced guys could offer some advice it would be greatly appreciated, feels a bit alien to me at the minute with it being new and this forum has been really helpful so far with advice.

I offer making good and have it any estimates I send out.

As said it attracts customers to use me, as many only want to deal with 1 person for an entire job. So me arranging plastering is a good thing for them.

I agree that making good is important as the vast majority of sparks do this so you would lose a lot of work if you don't.

I also agree that you are under charging, but in fairness we probably all did the same in the early days.
