Would appreciate idea of current hourly rate for Licensed plumber


Wherever in the world you are, it is whatever the market will bear.


And if you're not careful, the bear will eat you.


EVERY tradesman has different pricing and that depends on their individual
overhead. A one man shop may actually have a higher overhead cost than a 50
person operation.



How do you figure that could be? You must have a different idea of
'overhead' than I do.



As a percentage of sales, the one man shop has a higher overhead than a
large company. As a dollar figure the one man shop overhead is lower.
That assumes the boss is making about the same amount of money in both
outfits.
