Bored out of my tree currently (for once chrimbo stuff sorted early) so trying to get the labour for this quote figured out...
Been asked to do some electrical work for 2 properties to be rented out. Both currently empty.
Details listed below (sorry its a long list of stuff)
Solid hard walls throughout (older property) so everything is going to have to be raggled out and back boxes chiselled out, doesn't cover make good (and its mentioned on the estimate, though have mentioned I can arrange a plasterer if needed.)
Kitchen extractor is a recirculating type so the chimney is false and just for looks, customer wants the isolator concealed behind the chimney panel...which I can't see too much of an issue with as long as tenants are aware its there and the panel can be removed easily.
For this lot below I went for 5 days labour for the first property and 2 days labour for the second. Its local so was thinking along the lines of £175 a day. so 7 days at a total of £1225 for labour.
Materials - £1125
Total inc Materials and labour - £2350
Property 1
Property 2
Thoughts? About right or too much time / too little?
