Discuss Pricing, whats fair? in the Plumbing Jobs | The Job-board area at PlumbersForums.net
yeah that sounds about normal for most plumbers, however, the prices i quoted are the prices i believe that should be quoted, If you have 4/5 years training under your belt plus years of experience, then £80- £120 p/h should be the standard.
What other jobs do you need to train for 4/5 years before you can do your job.
Prime minister, doctors, surgeons.
The bankers have no training and millions of pounds in bonuses.
you may be a great plumber honest and reliable,but how long will you be in buisiness if you do not charge properly.do you add up all you overheads.van,van insurence tax,cost of deisal,public liability insurence,fees to gas safe,ciphe,etc,work tools,cost of all this £ devided by hours you can expect to work in a week.and dont forget your pension fund you will not be young forever
Yes, I had this with an accountant and he worked out I need to charge £185p/h!!!!!!!!!!!!
Agree with most of the comments about what we should charge but even charging £25 per hr + vat for gas work in Yorkshire is normally followed by the customer saying ' how much !!!!!!!. We have idiots up here who will work for £80 per day never mind an hour. Picked up the local paper at the weekend and not one but three people offering to supply and fit a new combi for less than £900.
Presumably that was to pay his bill?
I got a free meeting!!!!
yeah my point exactly Simon its ridiculous, although I note at SCREWFIX any item carrying the gas safe logo can only be purchased by a gas safe fitter!!
