I was looking at having some work done on some houses. Gererally
speaking, what's the ratio of parts -vs- labor in the building trades?

Typical inprovements I'm looking at include electrical, plumbing and
carpentry.


It typically ranges from about 10% vs 90% to about 90% vs 10%,
although some jobs it will fall outside those ratios.
