Years ago 2 of us did a surface rewire of an old council bungalow in day, But it was an easy one, empty and had suspended floor, basic pendant and switch in each room & if I remember it had the old imperial metal conduit drops and that we were able to get the new switch wires down too..
Still, it took us a long day.
We used to start on upstairs lights. One bloke in the loft, the other poking cable up at the next light, the guy in the loft would pull back to the previous light trying his best to route it along the joist ready to be clipped when they were all pulled in.
and 2 of us would aim to get that done for 10:30 then concentrate on downstairs lights & upstairs ring, finishing up with Groundfloor Ring.
Like Dave mentioned our testing was sloppy and very basi. ring cont, zs, and Rcd test.
If you put enough blokes in you can do it but I bet its not clipped not tested and rough as.
