I haven't told any contractor the price I'm wanting, I've done exactly the above message got a spec and I'm getting them to tender it. The main struggle has been getting people round to quote and actually turn ip, last week may have just been a busy week as I've got 3 sparks coming round this week.

Cheers all

Don't think its been mentioned yet, will you be living in your property whilst rewire is being carried out? Will furniture need to be moved, and carpets & floor coverings?

If you can vacate the property, and there's nothing to move about, it will be cheaper than a lived in rewire. Not to mention all the dust & ----.

Go on holiday for a week. :)
