Is my rewire price in the right area?

[ppelec100]

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.

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.

I was thinking of keeping both CUs in the basement. But now you mention it I’m thinking it would be a good idea to have the other cu upstairs in case of a fault they don’t have to come downstairs.

Parking would be permit holders I’d have to sort that out.

If I’m being honest I don’t think I’ll get the rewire because they’re after cheap cheap it seems and that’s not me. But I kind of know them so thought I’d pop round and do the quote anyways.

How far off would you say I am in terms of pricing? Any specific items i.e lights sockets im pricing too low?

Doesn't sound really cheap, or too expensive.
I expect a bit closer to £10k would still be ok.
