Fuse box installed for £150 what!!!

[antlewis]

That's a brand new install. If you are swapping an old DB for a new one, it is very unlikely to look like that.

not fully loaded

I will check now as I have the trade point catalog in my hand - have you got the page number off hand or is it on the website?

 

[Spazz]

I just checked and B&Q dont do Hager at all online and nor in their trade point catalog.
Where did you see it - in store or online or in the trade point?

Very nice , very neat, very new , very crabtree, very 16th, is that why their cheap. (and are you quoting 2007 prices

 

[Spazz]

Just found the one I think your on about - a BG CU - 10 ways fully loaded for £50 + VAT.

Out of interest what is BG like? What is their reputation like for protection or are they a budget range?

Selling short no stupid yes at these costs does the customer think they are getting a good deal and no doubt it is a cash job as for insurance and running costs me dont think this is a running business more like a visit to the pub and speak to the guy standing in the corner and if they want to do them for that cost then here is one who will not stand in their way

cheap rates are because of the cheap labour coming into the game,more so on domestic,£12 ph is enough for a Electrical Trainee as they are wiling to work for free half of the time,they need to repay the quick course costs...so will undercut real sparks

 

[Mark_Burgess]

same board is £50 from B&Q.

Wrong!!

£45 if you get an OAP to buy it on a wednesday, like I could get the father inlaw to do for me if I wanted. It makes me bloody sick.

it can't be a cash job as a CU upgrade is notifiable,
