    I also said suppose I am a 20% tax payer for simplicity of the calculation. I made all the numbers up.

    I am a 40% tax payer (if you check out the list my job and wage thread you can see how much I earn) but for my made up example I don't see how it is remotely relevant.
    Non relevant your still not an accountant and they I have found over the years offer the best advice ( well the good do :rotfl:)
    You still need to do a bit more research!
    [FONT=&quot][FONT=&quot]Maybe you do...?[/FONT]

    [/FONT][FONT=&quot]Guess’s of pricing and comparing jobs without relevant installation info is stupid so be my guest [/FONT]:rotfl:
  • May I suggest you have the required amount of smoke detectors (especially if you are renting)
    The building standards changed last year and in a flat you may need a minimum of 2 x smoke PLUS one heat detector.

    I would suggest you use a registered electrician, see SELECT website
    This link has a find a contractor facility
    If you are renting the property out here is a link to the changes in smoke detector requirements.
    Private Renting Housing Panel
    baldly going on...
  • We already have mains smoke detectors and have only been getting quotes from registered electricians.

    To update anyway, we now have someone managing the refurbishment and her contractors have quoted about half of our previous quote.
