Without seeing the job it's hard to say but IMO it would be more around the 4k mark here

Thanks for taking the time to look at though guys and offer your thoughts..

You need to remember that a VAT registered quote could be £5K plus VAT = £6K

I dont think you can just look at it as £66 per/point though Murdoch. That would mean the 3 extractor fans getting fitted for £198 which would be a bit cheap I think.

Exactly. mate I wouldnt change your quote it's not high at all.

Mate that's exactly what I wrote down and you can earn well if you do this kind work on a regular basis.

Every business is different, and there is no system on the market which can caterer for every subject.....its takes time to setup but once done will save valuable time...excel is quite simple ..list materials you use in sections per sheet, eg, cable one sheet, consumer units and rcds etc on another sheet etc. each section you can enter cost, quantity and time....once finished your end quoting sheet will display cost, material markup, man hours and labour markup, giving you the overall view of the project, the sheets per section will prevent you from missing vital equipment such as containment....takes time to setup, but becomes just enter quantities when finished.

This is something I really need to get round to doing!! Very difficult finding time just now though between too much work and family life!!

Well I can`t post excel files on the forum, but willing to send a cost sheet template for anyone whos interested, its mainly for fire alarms, but nothing stopping you adapting it to anything you wish....just fill out the blanks...and maybe any feed back would help others

My comment wasn't a plea for someone to make a cost sheet up, but if your offering it would be handy to have a guide.

HHD, It sounds a lot of work but the price just seems a bit high to me, then again I tend not to do big jobs like this as I normally get sick of them and wish I'd not started it.

My part on the forum is to help....if I can I will, pm if I can help

Sounds about right to me if the property is lived in. A bit high if empty.
