These rates are presented as a basis for writing estimates. Generally, a qualified person would make a determination about how long a job will take. We generally do not work by the hour. This is to avoid any discussion about the length of a time it takes to do a job or how long it took to get there and get started. The work is proposed for a price. We have never changed the price on a job unless the manager feels that the assesment of the estimator was grossly over (should have cost less). During high work load (after major storms or for emergency service on a weekend or holiday) you can expect that the rate will be increased by 50% to cover the overtime that is paid to our staff. High work load periods are generally brief (less than 1 week). If you do not have an emergency, it is best to wait a few days to obtain better pricing.
