Title: How much would you pay?
Post by: BigSi on April 15, 2007, 12:28:37

Ok, here is a question that is totally out of the blue, so lets just say its for research!!

How much would you be prepared to pay per hour for an electrician?

I would think £25-£30 an hour would be reasonable :)

I reckon around £30 an hour is fair, bearing in mind that as a Corgi reg Gas Fitter I would charge about £60 to service a back boiler and fire which would take about an hour  :shock: .

Well as a consumer its a bit of a trick question, cos i think we would all want to pay less than £20, but then my land lord pays for that kind of stuff so it doesnt affect me.

I resent the recent legislation that more or less forces me to pay someone to do a job that I am over-qualified to do myself.  More of the nanny-state culture that doesn't even trust us to work out wether or not we can safely do a job within the confines of our own home.

we pay £250 per full day for a sparky with apprentice at work. I imagaine the apprentice is on minumum wage which would put the main sparky in the middle option.

I ask nicely for stuff at home and they will quite happily pop out and check out work that i have done and put the finishing touches on it. :)

Part P isnt so bad - you can still get away with most jobs if you read it (you can add to existing wiring no probs) - it is just kitchens and bathrooms you arnt supposed to mess with.
