[alpha spark]

Hi guys what do you charge per unit for supplying and installing white accessories eg switches sockets etc no specific makes just cheap white forget wiring just for swapping like for like I've quoted

Oh,,, and I don't mean it'd take 1/2 a day, just that I'd allow 1/2 a day

Done a cu change today 2 miles away your saying it's too cheap what would you lot charge for same sort of thing off to her daughters next week to look at something and she says she doing her kitchen and bathroom out soon so don't want to quote her too much

 

[steptoe]

no body said it was too cheap,

how much do you NEED to earn per day?

then work out how long you will be there and your travelling costs.

Ive done re-wires for 3500

NEVER drop your price on the offer of 'future work'. Do the present job at the going rate, then tell them you will be open to negotiation on the next job.

RMMEMBER Customers Lie ! Not all of them, but enough to warrant caution... :coat

And never tell them how you are going to do it, because they will then tell the next person who comes along.
