Discuss Just priced my first rewire, why is it so cheap? in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
Sounds like a good price to me. Down here people would bite your hand off! Hope you get itWell she didn't want me to quote for fixings, so i have said £2650 first fix but with CU, breakers, smokes tails bonding etc OR £2950 with basic white plastic fittings + all chases being made good by my plasterer. I updated the quote to allow for 2 men 6 days then 1 man on a final day.
I will take some pictures if i do end up going back just so you can all see what it is like. Not that you haven't seen a house before but maybe just out of interest after all the help that has been offered up!
Fingers crossed, i think the client wanted to go with me because i came across genuine and told her the best thing to do was to get quotes off other people etc etc so we will see. I will keep the thread updated though. All the help has as always is/has been very much appreciated
Just waiting for the "I rewired a house with everything in it in 4 hours" reply.....
Aye but who has two sockets in a room and who has trunking all over the walls .. Your off your rocker e54... You might know your stuff but you are a goat that loves to criticise British sparks constantly cause your not here... Your allowed your opinion or to dribble should i say ... Lol
Trev, this is one of the most polite ripostes I've ever heard.....The simple answer to anyone that's trying to haggle. "If I were to lower my price then you'd be convinced that I was trying to rip you off with the original one. As it is I'm cutting my own throat at that so if you can get it any cheaper then go ahead but make sure they're insured and able to do EVERYTHING the job needs. Good day sir/Madam"
I can insult people without them realising it till it's too late. I once told one awkward bugger who was annoying me that I hoped he didn't die in his sleep.Trev, this is one of the most polite ripostes I've ever heard.....
