Hi All,

Just wanted anyone's views on why electricians prices are so different, had a few quotes for wiring in a kitchen, quotes came in at:

ÂŁ1200
ÂŁ950 (reduced to ÂŁ850 when I questioned it)
ÂŁ460

Went with the ÂŁ460, did a great job, safety certificate the lot. I know none of you will have seen the job in question but how do people quote up for jobs and why the vast difference?
 
i agree, ive seen industrial guys struggle with routing cables inside houses, having the ability to guess where dwangs are in walls, fishing for cables in victorian properties.

most sparkies can adapt from one to the other but it takes time

I can believe that, we are used to welding SWA to girders and lecturing people to use banjo’s!
I hate doing anything at home.
