Answer a few questions and get an instant, honest ballpark — not a locked-in quote, but enough to know if you’re looking at £2,000 or £50,000 before you pick up the phone.
No — it’s a starting point for a conversation, not a quote. Final pricing depends on your site, exact specification and any framework route, but it will tell you whether you’re looking at £2,000 or £50,000 before you pick up the phone.
Every figure includes the hardware itself, fixings and consumables (brackets, screws, cable, patch leads and similar), and installation labour for a standard two-person crew — billed in half-day units with travel accounted for, so there’s no separate call-out fee hiding outside the range.
Live current unit prices for the relevant hardware, plus a sundries allowance for the smaller parts (brackets, connectors, cabling) and installation labour billed in half-day units at a two-person crew’s day rate. Most categories build the total up from individual product prices; see the next question for the one exception.
Yes. Meeting room AV uses fixed per-room-size bands (huddle, mid-size, boardroom) calibrated against UK market rates for a fully installed room, rather than being built up from individual component prices the way the other categories are — a meeting room install bundles hardware, mounting, cabling and commissioning together as one job, so it’s priced as one.
Video walls, digital signage, meeting room AV, network & WiFi, CCTV, and cloud migration. Each of those categories feeds the same AV & Screen Cost Calculator, so you can compare a video wall against a meeting room fit-out in the same visit.
The ranges shown are indicative commercial pricing. If you’re procuring through Scotland Excel, or via Computacenter, Insight or CDW, see our Partners & Frameworks page — your account manager will confirm framework-specific pricing directly.
Contact us directly and we’ll scope it individually — the calculator covers our most common project types, but it isn’t the limit of what we take on.
Billing in half-day units, rather than by the hour, properly accounts for a two-person crew’s travel and setup time on top of the work itself, so the figure you see reflects what a visit actually costs rather than only the time spent with tools in hand.
It can, if a site survey reveals extra complexity, such as longer cable runs than typical, restricted access, or listed building constraints. That is exactly the kind of detail the AV & Screen Cost Calculator cannot see from a set of dropdown answers, which is why every figure it gives is a ballpark, not a quote. Where that happens it’s flagged and agreed with you before any work starts, not discovered after the fact.
No. Every figure shown, the calculator estimate and any quote that follows, is ex VAT, consistent with how pricing is shown throughout the site.
The Get an accurate quote button carries your estimate through to the contact form, but the calculator itself doesn’t offer a separate export or download. If you’re not following up straight away, taking a screenshot of the result before you move on is the simplest way to hold on to a copy.
