Replacing (RCD) fuse box

[Michael999]

How long would it take to replace a fuse box with a new(RCD) box?

Small 3 bed semi-detached house, with Aqualisa power showers,recently re-wired.

Why do I ask? I (upnorth) spoke to our trusted electrician who has done work for me and my familyfor the past 20 years and asked him for a price and he told me £100 for partsand 3 hours labour £100 total £200. Myson (down south) who is buying the house that needs (according to the surveyor)a new RCD unit has been quoted £350.

The price of materials is the same in the north as it is inthe south does the cost of labour vary across the country?

TIA

Mike

As a customer (and you all will be customers for other trades at some point or another) all we want is a good job for a fair price. Of course we would all like to think that we are worth £bigbucks an hour because we are so well qualified doing highly skilled work that can only be done by the super intelligent. This job can be done in 3 hours. You can then dance around testing whatever for another hour and fill in some paper worl for another hour. At best you've got 5 hours work that means that you believe that your skills and qualifications make you worth £50+ per hour that puts you on an annual salary of in excess of £100,000. You of course are happy with that but would you be happy to pay the plumber, carpenter, builder etc., that kind of salary and what about the teachers, nurses etc, surely they should be on an equivalent salary. That's how Greece ended up where it is!

This fella has got to be on the wind up , as surely no one can be such tool as he is being without any apparent comprehension of it !?:skep:

1st rule of trolling, never reply to your own thread.

Your reply does deserve a response but it comes in the form of this :dita:

Get it done by your mate up North, pay his expenses and don't get a cert or anything THAT IS REQUIRED BY LAW!!!! (and it would cost you more!)

Some threads aren't worth the intelligence or effort that they get given and in "MY OPINION" this is most certainly one of them now truck off know it all!!!!!!!!

Sorry members but this poster has got my back up now! If it's that easy then perhaps he should get a leaflet from one of the sheds on "How to replace a consumer unit"

Trucking muppet!!!!!

Rick head!

yeah...like those `good idea` leaflets you can get from one of em......like Ooh!!...i`v just had a REALLY GOOD idea...think i`l just get a C/U and stick it to the wall (no more nails will do).....stick some cables in......jolly good....

I must apologise for my post, I hadn't read the previous posts after 999's due to just going through new posts and picking up his/hers post first.

Seems I'm not the only one that had an issue here so........

I think a hammer of sorts is required here and I'm not talking "Myhammer" I'm suggested a Super Mods BAN HAMMER LMAO :thumbsup

***Off to get a cider now, oooo arrgh oooo arrgh***

Some arab will buy the whole premiership sooner or later and throw a load of cash around. Then it'll burst just like the south sea bubble did.
Thankfully I follow a proper sport, rugby union

Eeee, I hope so. Be great to see Leeds back in the Premier.
My club back in the 70s when I was a scabby teenager.
They should never have sold Cantona!
