SDM Group 0 Posted October 7, 2011 Got into a discussion over hours billed for prewiring a jewellery store with 22 cameras coax/18/2. The store has accessible ceiling and is approx 200' by 200'. How many hours do you guys think Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomcctv 190 Posted October 7, 2011 Hi SDM. is this a job you have done or are you being asked to just install the cables. a contractor was caught out a while ago that i know. he was asked to install a 16 camera system in a corner store but was asked to put all cables and power in 1 weekend and the cameras the weekend after. after they installed the cables the guy cancelled the order. when he went in a few days later with a bill for work done the guy had bought a cheap system from ebay. he only used him to fit the cables to make it easier for him to install his own. and wanted a discount if they are asking for you to just install the cables charge full hour rate and full price for cable BNCs and Power.
