Best way to price remedials

[tomspark93]

Just looking for some opinions on how best to price some remedials on an EICR that has been done recently. I didn’t carry out the report but do have access to it. It’s a big warehouse with numerous final dbs so there’s quite a lot of paperwork which will take some going through.

There are quite a few c2’s stating that wrong sized mcbs have been used for the ccc of a the cable. Mostly 32a for 1.5mm. It could easily be a case of just swapping the mcb out for a smaller size but then equally they could be in to cope with a greater loads or higher inrush currents which would then need further remedial work.

What’s would you say the best way to price this is? I’m leaning towards an estimate/hourly rate as there may be more to it than simply just swapping out mcbs.

You must give the customer an estimate for the works - and don't forget to include time to produce the certs

Go through it item by item, cost parts and labour time then tot the lot up.

It is the way we do them, start at item 1 and work through it.

estimate a price on time and materials, then double it.
