Price to fit skirting?

[JoinerMike]

Hi all.
A question for fellow joiners. Normally I would estimate how long it will take me to fit skirting boards and charge accordingly. I've just been to price up a job and there are several hundred metres of skirking to be fitted and I was wondering what the average price was per metre. Easier than trying to work out time on this job.
Skirting is 7" torus, not many low sockets etc and most rooms are square shaped.
I live in Lancashire. Just after an average cost per metre.
Thank you all for your time answering
Mike

if you are handy with your internal and external scribes, and skirting is being fixed to studs go for £3.25 mt. or £4.50 if plugged. if its hardwood add £1.00 0n both. if pellets are used add this to cost, i normally get £.10p a pellet, hope this helps.
