I was looking at about £3500 - £4000 ?? Am i on the right wasve length?? Your input would be most appreciated!
 
For pricing I always covered everything and presented the customer with an itemised quote where they could see that materials were more often than not more expensive than the labour. I estimated the amount of cable required and added about 10% onto that but always rounded up the cost to a full drum. I added the cost of each item ie clips, galv nails for capping, capping, boxes, earth sleeving, tails, CU & breakers etc etc. The customer could see how much they were paying and compare prices on the web and see if they are being ripped off. I added 10% profit onto materials but this was added onto labour charge. Took a while but was worth it and you could see what you are spending.
