How are you charging for downlights these days?
I’ve been mainly commercial since going on my own and haven’t really got into much domestic for quoting, however I’ve got a customer today asking about downlights, and another one I’m due to go and meet at the back end of the week on the same topic. What’s the going rate (outside of London) for 1. Swapping out an existing fitting for a new one. 2. Adding new points. I’ve given them the option of cans or integrated fittings, from my point of view it’s no more or less work either way so whatever they want. I’ve seen online people saying 60-80/point for a new point, what we thinking about replacing existing?
This 1st job is swap 12 and add 4. 2 of the 4 have a pre-existing ceiling light nearby, the other 2 are the opposite side of an RSJ due to extensions, that side is all plastered. The 12 will likely need re-drilling after they have that section of ceiling skimmed.
Interested to hear where you guys are at.
