Hi guys, I’m just trying to price a rewire and I think my price is fair considering the specs of the job plus he wants 2 consumer units, 1 cu for downstairs as he and his wife will downstairs and 1 cu for upstairs which he will turn into a flat. I just want to get other opinions if I'm close to how they would price.

All materials supplied and fitted for now, he did mention he wanted to get usb sockets and stuff but he seemed clueless and a bit busy with removing rubble when I went to quote, so I’m just pricing it get the quote done for all white Hager stuff, cu by Fusebox with compact rcbos, downlights by ansell, nothing else fancy keeping it basic.

Area is Borderline east London/essex.

Price is

I couldn't see that you had priced for running a supply from the intake to the 2nd CU upstairs? Have you factored in parking, parking tickets etc (if relevant)? For the area I think your price is a bit on the light side.
