Pricing

[TreeFaze]

Can anyone give me an idea of costing for domestic installations per point i.e price per socket outlet, lighting point, mains/cc and earthing etc?
New to being selfemployed so any help appreciated folks:hurray:

Rotter!

OP - you need to figure this out for yourself, really. Only you know your operating costs.

Operating Costs + Profit you want to achieve / work achievable by point per month = price per point. TBH, it's a crap way of pricing for work and I don't use it!

Figure out the hourly rate you'll need then take that figure and use it in the sum-

Material cost +( number of hours estimated for completion of the job X Hourly rate)=Price to customer

£10 per point. You'll be really busy but won't make any money at all.

yes a busy fool

check earthing before doing anything and put that into the quote. i usually charge £50 a socket £35 a light depending how complicated the routes are and if they are chased/ trunked.

I have never priced per point.
you know the speed that you work, you know what you are comfortably able to do within an hour/day.
give it a best guess as to how long it will take you, price the materials and add 20% to the price you pay your supplier , add the 2 together, you have your price.

Or you could lick your finger, put it in the air and tell them it's £1000 per switch £1500 per socket, although you can drop to 900 a piece if there's more than 1 of each item
