Hi guys, I would be interested to hear some of your tips on tackling an occupied rewire please!
 
lol ok mate listen to Dillb he obviously knows beter :S NOT
rewires most commonly are give price and get it done as fast as poss .
bump your price up slightly to allow for extra day and half.
 
As a rule we will not touch a occupied (only for our very best customers and as a special favour at that !) , the last one we did i paid for the couple that lived there to stay at a local hotel for the duration .
All in all it worked out more efficient and so much less stressful in the end , and they seemed to appreciate it as well .

If you have priced it on a occupied rate , then there should be that much extra in the kitty to do this and when you take in to account the amount it speeds the job up , it can be justified in some case's !



Edit ; Steady boys it ain't that much of a biggie !

Ive done a few occupied rewires. I think be grateful of the work, good communication and if you can get them to help ie get in the loft tell them to pull down the switch drop, help move carpet wardrobe etc and usually there out work themselves so just go for it!
