Hi, I've come for advice because I'm very wary of having jobs done after being completely ripped off by a fencing company last year. I need two ceiling lights wired in, in the living room (& the others removed) and haven't a clue what is a good price. I've just been quoted £70 for both, with vat on it works out at £84. 

Is that a fair price could anyone tell me please? Many thanks in advance.

    Very cheap. I wouldn't attend a site for £70.

    Thank you, I thought it sounded very reasonable but at the same time, didn't have a clue lol
