Subject: RE: Fencing Contractor cost extreme


Wheelersburg and Lancaster, Ohio
Don’t forget to factor into his price the time he spent talking to you, and who knows how many others, that day. And the time he spent gathering materials and the time he spent buying and maintaining equipment. And probably a hundred other things that went into that high looking dollar per hour number you came up with. Maybe he’s trying to show a ROI on his equipment. Maybe his wife is making him charge enough to justify not going to a $50/hr factory job.
I used to run into this pouring concrete patios. I wasn’t even trying to make a living. Material and time cost vs price estimate for an average patio was real close to what you described.
My point is you’re not wrong for realizing you can save a bunch of money doing it yourself. And he’s not wrong for charging what he is either.
