How much would you charge for first fix socket points. No materials

[electricshock]

Basically theres a basement and hall. 25m by 10m. and first floor is quarter size of hall. some rooms on each floor. Big area, high ceilings.

All im quoting for is putting in wires and twin/single boxes and sheething/clipping them to the fuseboard. Its all new block walls so no chasing. Just thow the wires in and bang bang bang.

How much would you charge per point. theres 53 sockets in total.

LABOUR ONLY.

If you need more detail, please ask?

How many RFCs are we talking about here?
Some of the terminology scares me for example I never "just throw wires in" it's not usually that simple, zoning needs to be considered
Among other things

 

[SPARTYKUS]

Just keep it simple, how long will it take you? Whats yer hour rate? End of equation.

Impossible to say without seeing the job. Look out for RSJ's with no route to the other side of them!

another Electrical Trainee..

Throw it in and bang bang, ha wont see it from my house lol!
Seriously though try work out how long you think it will take you and work it on a day rate.

 

[electricshock]

Lol. Just a phrase i like to use. I think it would take me about 10 days. I was thinking about 1450. Wat u think

 

[trev]

I now think this is a wind up

 

[Flyingsparks]

I think you are far to cheap. you should be charging at least £20 per hour !

 

[electricshock]

Im serious. This guy rejected my day rate. As its hard to tell how many days it will take im putting a bit extra.

 

[SPARTYKUS]

10 days sounds a bit long. As said you can only see jOb so really hard to advise you. Bite bullet & get stuck in if u win job

 

[trev]

So in one day you can chop in 5 boxes and pull in 5 or 6 cables?
Total output

 

[electricshock]

Really. If i charge that much.i wont get any work at all. Seriously

 

[electricshock]

No chopping at all

Its a shell so yes i can do more than that

 

[trev]

Ok so you'll fix 5 boxes? Makes it even worse mate, I reckon your ten day estimate is way over. How long does it take to fix 1 box? I'm 49 years old and I'm pretty sure I could fix all those boxes in one day and that's allowing for smoke and teabreaks

Dont work for peanuts!!!

[electricshock]

There are some jobs you can charge 20. But some jobs you cant.
