Just getting around to improving the Wi-Fi and sound system at my house as part of a long overdue remodelling.

Bit out of touch with this but is £460 day (VAT incl.) labour really the going rate???

It also depends on where you are and who they are.

If they have a shop front, big team and London based (ie big overheads)it is about right.

If it is a one man band with little overheads and in the back end of nowhere then is it high.

I think Toxic and I are both more in the middle of those two options.

Thanx for yr interest guys.

We've just had a meeting with them and what initially looked eye watering from the labour point of view, once broken down into the amount of work required appeared reasonable...

A basic av install rate is still a bit high, but for Crestron Programming that's a good rate.
