It would seem with only a 200A service that there is not all that much there, and assuming someone else is doing the gutting, it would not appear to be a whole lot different than new construction.
can you even air condition a 6500SF house with only a 200A service?
I think bidding by the SqFt is the lazy mans way. Bid it per outlet, and like others have said, at whatever your cost is. We used to get $25 an opening (a 2 gang is 2 openings) for NMC and that was in the 80's, but I've heard recently that the tract guys are only getting about $9. Of course you need to figure in the service and can lights are more as are A/C, electric dryer runs, electric ovens, ETC.
I charge $50 per opening. $9 per opening? ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. are they stealing the material and using slaves for labor?
see, here in the northeast we like to eat, have a house to live in that is our own, like to have health insurance, like to fund our retirement funds, like to go on the occasional vacation or two, enjoy heat in the winter and AC in the summer, oh and like to have a couple of dollars in our pockets at all times just in case something comes up.
3way switches are more
light fixtures are more
4way switches are more
recessed lights are way more
cable tv
phones
heat ac
sump pumps
water heaters
swimming pools
jacuzzi tubs
new electrical service with arc fault breakers
they all have a number assigned to them - then just add them up.
I can't do very much for $9.
we also carry liability insurance . workers comp insurance, are licensed, and do backround checks on all employees.
