Admin: We do already, though cannot on the average prices. Click on any of the links in the table to see examples of the actual submitted prices including where and when they were done."

"These look like rip off prices to me !! Don't you have realistic times for jobs along with a rate per hour (in each region ) ? As an ex time study person I cannot see how some of these prices are justified. No wonder someone want to use your site in order to give quotes !"

"If it says supply only then its parts only, if it says fitting only then its fitting only. Click on the links on the left hand side of the table to take you to a page with more detail on each of the prices that go into working out the averages. Most of the prices are per job and we don't usually get told the number of hours taken to complete."

"Are the prices quoted for labour only or do they include materials? How many hours does each price represent? "
