Discuss How much would you charge for first fix socket points. No materials in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

You and only you know what you are happy to work for. Get a figure per day in your head then decide how much you can achieve in that time, add it all up and there is your price. My price might be more than yours or may be less but my price is my price. If everyone on here put their price on I'm sure they would all be different. Why did the guy reject your day rate?

Something to do with 5 boxes a day probably
 
So in one day you can chop in 5 boxes and pull in 5 or 6 cables?

Your right mate. Everybodys rate is different. This guy is nuts. He wanted me to work for 80 a day and 40 each for additional. I said thats a labourer wage. I gave my rate and then he said to give a quote cause electrician will be layed back on daily rate.

Hes having it on

If he's getting other quotes and telling you that then put a bigger price in and ask him to ask the others why they are so cheap. I won't get involved with the Dutch auction brigade.
 
Customers always try o knock u down, give hem your price and tell them to find it cheaper elsewhere, your offering quality and that comes at a price

Thats right. Im offering quality. I gave my price today £1400. He said he is going to get another quote and then let me know if I got the job.
