A few months ago i posted a thread asking what you would include in a rewire given a blank canvas. I got lots of helpfull replies that i passed on to my sister, she has just had a first quote for the work, and i am none too impressed with the level of detail, spec or price. Could you guys cast your eyes over and say if i am being too harsh? Property is a 3 bed stone 1880 terreace in Surrey just off the A3 outside of the M25.
