Is this quote reasonable for a partial re-wire on a 1st floor 2 bed flat?
Anonymous user 28/02/2024 - 3.13 PM
I'm having some work done and at the same time I wanted to make sure my electrics were up to scratch and replace/move some dodgy or badly placed switches/outlets and add a few too. Nothing major I thought. I was expecting it might be a grand or so but: Replace existing fuse box with new RCBO board in existing position Dining area, 1 double socket, 1 pendant light on existing switch Bedroom, 1 double socket, level light switch Hallway, re position heating clock, and re position existing light switches due to walls being removed Lounge, 3 double sockets Kitchen, 2 new double sockets, re-position 2 existing sockets & cooker control, wiring only for cooker hood washer and fridge - freezer (no installation of the three appliances) Re-connect water and gas bonding as required Master bedroom, 2 way pull switch on existing light, replace double socket front in glass mirror if possible All new switches and sockets required to be square edged Builder to do all plaster work If it is necessary to remove any kitchen tiles, their replacement is down to the the householder Sub Total £2594.00 + VAT £518.80 Total £3112.80 Is this a reasonable quote? Am I insane to think that this is a bit expensive? Any hints/tips and opinions gratefully received.
