[QUOTE="europa, post: 431729, member: 27781"] I've spoken to the automation company and their view is that there's so little work involved in fitting the automation modules - they can actually be retrofitted - that the price should be closer to 300£ rather than 3500£! So i will probably get their guy to do that stuff. The cat 6 is a bit trickier. Getting someone else in to do that whilst the other electrician is laying electrical cables is a bit complicated.
