How much would you chaps charge too change 30 socket faces and extend and raise two sockets too a higher point?? Its in Wimbledon, London about 1 hour or so from my house will only be there for a day?

cheers

£200 for the day. Though 30 in a day is a tall ask. If you get any pigs you could be there till midnight. Id charge 2 days money so you dont have to go at it hell for leather and your covered if anything goes wrong.

I wouldn`t go in to cheap mate if 20 out of the 30 sockets give you hassle then you be doing the job for next to nothing.
It sounds like a negative approach but untill you remove all of the socket faces you never fully know whats lurking behind.
I have been cought out quite a few times doing little jobs on the cheap when you think that your doing good for the customer and in the end hardly making anything.
cheers Chris.

I don't know cos I'm in Wales but £200 for a day in London seems awful cheap, even if you can get it done in one day.

This is, of course, assuming you are competent and testing properly etc. If not, have you considered a career in plumbing lol?

Work to 35 pound an hour. As it's an hour from your home I'd charge for a 12 hour day as you don't want to go back so 2 hours travel and 10 hours work. Round it up to a nice 400 pounds.

Make sure the customer knows that any other remedial work is not going to be included - you may open up a face and find a load of burnt wire behind it, or find a box which has cross threaded and needs replacing.

Where are you located inrelation to sw19,cost of fuel?,make sure you double lock your motor up around that area.suppose you could do it in a day if you find no problems,but like others have said i would put down for a second day just to cover yourself,dont sell yourself to cheap,you do need to earn a living after your expenses have been taken out.
