He said he's been asked lol 

 

So what makes you think he started work without agreeing a price? Other work could be anything....

Asked to do them, not asked how much to do them, and thats what made me think he was already doing them without agreeing how much

All I'm I'm trying to do is get an idea of what you guys would charge for a similar installation. It would be 5 sites in total all exactly the same regards kit content. Sparks will be supplying the kit so it will just be labour only. Also as I'm new to alarms and am gathering experience don't want to charge top dollar. Taking on board what you guys have said and speaking to some colleagues was thinking £200 per site.

Question , if one kit fails who pays for return visit ?

Will cross that bridge as and when.

I'd get that sorted before making your bed.

You'll make nothing if you end up providing endless free callouts because you have been supplied with tat.

He who supplies the kit is responsible for the warranty, Ray you do not have the original invoice for the kit so you have no way of returning it for replacement under warranty.

 

However, you are responsible for your own workmanship, if you do a crap job with lots of loose wires the sparks has every right to charge you for return visits. In my experience I never charge the subby, I just never use them again. So the moral is do a good job and you have nothing to worry about and you will get more work, do a crap job and you wont get any more work and you might get charged for return visits.

Sparky will only pay that if he's desperate and simple system how many could you do in 8hours?

 

Better per system , they do you over otherwise unless it's fixed contract 7days minimum as example you get paid regardless
