What would you charge?

[sparky3366]

Just been to look at a job for a friend of a friend and was wondering what you would charge.

CU change from a 3036 to 17th edition
Supply to garage (ducting in place with draw rope )
2 way CU in garage
2x S/O in garage
2x 5ft Fluro's
1x 1g L/S
Fit 1x S/O below CU

Earthing is in 10mm, tails are 25mm, N to E test at CU is ok, bit of conduit up the side of garage (vertical drop to duct via an IP box 3m length)

Equipment comes to approximately £230, about a days work and in the north east...

 

[malcolmsanford]

2-3 hundred + the mats. so call it a monkey as your in the north East

 

[DurhamSparky]

£400 for CU and socket
£150 for Garage CU
£275 for fitting garage out

£825 for whole job but would round down to £750

I was thinking about £700 ish... how did you know I was from hartlepool??

 

[sparky3366]

can I get away with 30mA RCD's on a TT? I have my doubts ...

 

[malcolmsanford]

Yes ...................and many a good night on the cedarwood estate up there

And if this was the middle east Malcolm would charge 3 camels and a goat curry .

what's wrong with a 30mA RCDas main switch in garage, fed from non RCD way in house CU? and where did TT come from? is the house installation TT?

3 camels? must be inflation. used to be 1 camel and 3 wives.

First you ned to know how many circuits are on the old board, and from past experiance this could take all day to test if its a old rewireable shot, maybe more, if the conductors are all over the place, unnamed doubled up and fused with bits of coathanger, all the new stuff a day and a half, CU change old off, new on a few hours unless your upside down under the stairs, and at £30 per hour plus materiels

Don't forget the curry! That's a deal breaker in my book.
