This is business though if the market bears the prices you are going to charge them. If I look at mechanics, gas fitters, painters, builders and many other trades we as electricians are way below what they are charging. Considering the technical nature of our work I think we should be earning a lot more personally. In Germany if you say you are an electrician you get a lot of respect as they recognise the complexity of the work and training. That is not to say other trades are not "technical" it's just the price differential is low for us I think. If I could get a £1000 for an EICR I would be doing them day in and day out!
