Hi all

I have just serviced a gas fire (valor Firelight 328) all above board, full strip down, drop test, paperwork etc

Charged the bloke £55.00, while speaking to him whilst doing the service he told me people had quoted him between £80.00 - £100.00, one bloke said £120.00.

As I am newly self-employed and I have only ever worked in social housing before and never dealt with payments for jobs. My question is, have I undercharged for this job, after all it was only an hours work and i think 55 quid is quite resonable, or are the other blokes just to expensive??😕

Any advice grateful

cheers
