So your telling me, if you get a for example, a ball joint for a customers car, and you pay 20 quid for it, then you fit it which takes an hour at 50 quid an hour. Thats 70 quid. But you charge them 30 quid for the ball joint so the price is 80???????????? If so that is WRONG

If i get bricks at 250 quid a thousand, i charge the customer 250 quid a thousand....plus labour......[/quote]0


this is excatly wot i do,when pricing a job
the matierials plus labour.(just round the price of the materials of)
why dont you try askin the builder to give you a day rate and you supply the matierals.
