    Howdy!

    Need help pricing an electrical job in a house, its basically 6 sockets that have to be chased, a globe in the bathroom and an extractor fan in the bathroom too. Materials have cost me 100 euro, if someone who could price this that would be brilliant,

    Regards

    How many hours do you think it will take you? Multiply it by what you charge per hour e.g 50 euro/hr for 5 hrs = 250euro. Or 70 euro/hr for 5 hrs= 350euro.

    well its up to the terms and conditions

    estimation is typically an exercise to calculate how much time and money the job will take, then add profit, overhead and tax in that order.

    However pricing per point is the quick way and for small jobs its the fastest and possibly best way.
