My first big job, made up of lots of little jobs, please help with pricing!

Have a chat with one of the staff, send them a copy of an invoice and providing you meet the other requirements you should be able to get access to The Electricians Arms.

Don't forget to tell him about the initiation ceremony, and buying drinks for everybody.

I think your about £300-£350 light.....£45 a downlight labour only and another day and half for the other stuff.

It's a bit of a gamble on how long an accessory change can take too, normally easy and quick until you find some where the original has been really badly done, short cables in sockets then L&N the opposite way round on the new ones,metal switches that need a new earth link from the backbox, plate screws cross threaded then rammed in, fun when they shear off taking them out etc etc. I'd look at the entire job in terms of days then allow a bit on top for snags, having said that though the OPs target hourly rate seems high to me.

If your unsure just agree a day-rate with your customer. Tell him you can't be sure how long some of the jobs will take so its best for both parties if you charge just for your time. Your neck of the wood about £180 a day. If you have to get any gear put 20% on top to cover your time getting it.
