[ChrisElectrical88]

[Hawk]

You know your customers ... Everyone is different.

 

[ChrisElectrical88]

Is wack it in at about 300 then if materials were 60 and bang in a days labour.

 

[i=p/u]

So 3x£25 plus 100=£175 . Taking you've done job already

 

[Hawk]

Yeah job done was wondering if I was dear or cheap? I was charging £25/hr + £85 for flourecsents and materials. 3 hours work

Very cheap hourly rate IMO, depends where you are in the Kingdom though.
