will do walk through with estimate for free, and spell out differnt cost options, if nothing else, gives you a base when asking for other estimates
I hope you already know this (as I hate to be the one to break it to you): this job is likely extremely complicated and extremely expensive.
Based on your statement, I presume there is not a separate meter for the tenant and the basement(which may be linked the owners apartment)? And, if this is the case, that means you need ConEd to also bring in another meter once the wiring is separated out. Alas, ConEd won’t do that unless the CofO states there are as many units as meters you are requesting.
Put another way, is the apartment that you want to separate the electricity for a legal apartment? Because if it’s not, it will be cheaper for you to pay the tenant’s electricity bill for the next 10 years than it will be to make his apartment legal (which in fact may not be possible at all).
I hope I misunderstood your question, and that the job ahead is easier than I’m making it out to be… good luck.
