Rewire quote - Nuneaton

3 days full rewire.. ?

Plenty of sticky MT2 bunged in and surface mount accessories is the only way you would do that in that time.

 

I went Essex to do rewire without looking for housing association I do work for, it had Tennant's, place was full of furniture was nightmare but 2 of us did it in 3 days we just worked longer hours it possible to do empty house in 3 days no problem

 

Why ? Me and Lad who works for me and sometimes a labourer I just done bungalow in 2half and she had 10 skts in lounge no trunking anywhere!

 

Just looked at one of my jobsheets from a couple of months ago. Empty 3 bed house, no carpets - 3 days to 1st fix, usual 3 sockets in each room, tv points in lounge and bedrooms, outside light at front, sec light at rear. 2 days to 2nd fix. price was £2500.

 

5days OK some were saying more than a week to do basic rewire

 

I haven't done a like-for-like rewire in years. It's all major refurbs this past few years and I give it about 3-4 weeks labour for a four-bed. Spread over about 8 weeks of build time.

You and your lad can come and work for me if you want...

 

Don't understand why this has surprised people like I said standard 2 bed empty house like OP wanted i could do in 3 days with no short cuts or bodge trunking

 

Top of my head:

Day 1 - first fix cables
Day 2- back boxes and drops sorted
Day 3 - second fix and test
Day 4 - removal of old installation.

Based on two working a standard day.

 

So you rewire in 3 days old cable can come out as you work through rewire

 

Like I said 3 days no problem did 2 bed bungalow in 2 other day thought most Sparks worked to this

 

I wish I could do it that fast - flipping heck.

 

You spend too much time taking photos and posting on here to work quickly JP

 

It is just from the top of my head. Whether you strip out as you go or at the end it will take the same time.

 

We are talking a bungalow mate. Nothing big. Basically a large flat.

 

Oh right..yes that must be right Mr N, a good time for you younger guys - I'm getting old now so even the bungalow would take me a lot longer then 4 days. I don't do that kind of thing now anyway.

 

My neither mate. It is a guess anyway. Reality is another thing.

 

It took me longer than 4 days to chop the back boxes and do the chases in my kitchen.

 

I was basing it on two persons.

 

Lpl - that is true Chips..
