I have had a quote to replace two extractor fans in two bathrooms and to fix a bedroom ceiling light which turns itself off (not because the bulbs have blown but because a wire may be loose). The quote is about £240 for everything including labour. Labour has been quoted at £100.00. Is this a fair price? What do you guys think?

    It depends on which fans you are having and if holes need to be drilled, but the labour charge seem very fair for an electrician.

    Dont think its too bad really, i had an extractor fitted in my bathroom and it was £110.
    So a pretty fair price i would say.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    Thanks all.

    Just wondering McKneff if you a whole new extractor fan installed or if you were replacing one that had been there and was not working.

    Thanks
