| 12/23/10 Here is an invoice from a HVHC company laying on my customers counter. Two guys on the job, there one hour. Take off the I.D. motor. The labor came to $220.00, or $110.00 per guy per hour. I paid attention to the cleaning of the electrostatic filter, took about 10 minutes using a garden hose. ( $80.00 ) for labor. |
| Same customer as above. Carpet cleaner, cleaned duct work and did a small carpet repair. One guy, showed up around 1:00 pm Air duct cleaning took 2 hours He started cleaning carpets around 3:00pm, not sure what time he finished. I know his machines cost a lot. So do all my tools. But $920.00 is not a bad for and afternoon. |

| It's not try to figure what companies charge for labor If they carry insurance, are on time, don't raise prices and do a great job. I know for a fact, people will pay extra for good service. I know I'm not the cheapest handyman. I hear prices from $25.00 and hour to $90.00 per hour. Normally the $25.00 is an retired guy wanting extra income, and takes cash only and probably does not carry insurance. The $90.00 hour is a big company with lots of over head. It all depends on the travel, time on the job, skills and tools required. Below is a copy of invoices ( not handyman ) I've seen. I'm going to see if I can get more I will not show the company name and customer name. |
| My own refrigerator needed repaired, it stopped cooling. I called Sears ( where we bought it ) Repair man came out. Part was $80.00 Labor was $140.00 He was here 1/2 hour. We paid it....it still works, he did his job. Was I happy with the $140.00 No I was not...but he had the skills to do the job, and he worked for a large company that has big overhead expenses. I'm going to try to find the ticket and take a picture. |
