@jasonf Mobilization fee- cast to transport equipment, includes gas and wear and tear on vehicle and trailer to get there, throw at least 100 profit on top.
Rest depends on T&M or hard bid.
You must charge the mobilization fee though. It should be around 100 + 1.25( cost per mile for vehicle)...
@soxdre Especially when the big companies are paying a lot more.
No self respecting tradesman will work for some guy who doesn't know what he is doing and pays bottom dollar on top of that.
@richard161171 Can confirm.
I was a finish carpenter in high end residential during college.
I certainly wouldn't go do handyman work, if I did not have to or have a profit motive.
