How long is a piece of string?? How the hell can anyone give you a figure based on what you have posted!!!!

 

[trev]

If it'snot a wind up post more info please

You'd need to supply a better breakdown of the details to get any chance of a sensible guesstimate Chris.

Number of each type of dwelling and number of circuits per each type of dwelling would be a good start. An accurate quote would be affected by the type of construction as well as other factors.

for a job of this size, the main contractor will be looking for avery competetive price, along with quality assurance ect. i dont think just bunging in a price will cut it.

 

[Marvo]

This doesn't make sense to me. Surely if there were 50 houses that require electrical installations this type of contract would go out as a national tender????

 

[johnboy6083]

i agree, it would most likely be a council or local housing auithority, and would be put out to competetive tender. They would be looking for more than the cheapest price too. Unless, they are trying work for a sub-contractor.

 

[Marvo]

So if it works that way in the UK as well possible the op is looking for help with a pricing structure for his tender submission?????

 

[topquark]

It's worded as a rewire, not an initial installation for new build.

Mate: Anyone gives you a price based on the info you've supplied, do yourself a favour & shove them out the door. We'd need a lot more info to work on.

50 houses at £15000 = £750000.
You can do anything in your imagination!

 

[llywelyn111]

Dave from the pub does electrics, bet he'll do it cheaper.

50 rewires must be a council job, or Robbie Fowler wants to rewire some of his houses he rents out.

You'll need CHAS as a very minimum to be able to be considered for the work.

If its council work it will have to go out to tender.

If you don't have an existing relationship with the "requester" I'd recommend you politely decline the opportunity.

I expect he is talking about sub contract for council rewires

A starting figure my way is, believe it or not, £ 550 per unit across the board,that is most probably 3 men working like nigerians to complete on a day for a take home of about 180 before tax and expenses,tools insurance.fuel, van and more often than not,part p registered as well because the councils want sub contract to be full scope registered nowadays

If you are the main contractor,depending on the location,each unit(council prices ) is as little as £1,600 all in
The private sector can be anything you can pluck out of your head

These prices are fact,I know from personal experience of the tenders and the invoicing of these contracts
If you can still stomach the work at those rates crack on

Sounds like 1 big housebashing headache

Is this by any chance for WDH through Bullocks on Lupset?

Excuse my ignorance, but whats CHAS?

 

[Arnold Layne]

Tigerpaul, no need to request excuses because there are so many schemes out there it is difficult to keep up with them all. CHAS is a third party Health and Safety accreditation scheme. It is as llywelyn 111 says a basic requirement for local authority work, is used by Housing Associations, Local Councils and some private sector clients as a way to ensure whether a contractor has the necessary H&S systems to undertake the work. The means by which you get accreditation is a paper based, form filling application and of course the payment of a fee. There are other schemes that do a similar thing. Hope this helps.
