Estimating for an EICR

[yellowvanman]

Just been asked to quote on an EICR for a large B&B.

22 Rooms - 8 DBs and 100 circuits in total. Not been there to look but would like to give a estimate and then (if acceptable) have an on-site meeting to set out limitations etc. What sort of price/circuit would you quote for starters?

Just had a look at the web site of the B&B and the rooms don't look extra ordinary in terms of electrically, I'm guessing the large number of circuits is because each room has their own lighting/sockets/heater circuits.

Do you know if the customer has the previous reports? 1/2-40mins a circuit.

Just going through that, looks like the facility was opened (probably after a refurb) in 2008 so would expect there is some!

Don't forget to include time for identifying circuits that may be wrongly assigned or unidentified. Find out what limitations you will have in terms of isolating power, I could imagine in a place like that it could be a right morris dance of frustration when rooms are occupied.
All the prescribed and agreed scope and limitations, including access and isolation will have a bearing on your final per circuit price.

Go there and look at it before giving any sort of price

Bit of a trek to have a look and possibily not get the job.

Don't intent of giving a fixed price quote, just an estimate at first and if its in their ballpark then will have a visit and go over any limitations they have and look at what papework they have! Then update the estimate to a fixed price.
