How Much A Linear Foot For Labor?
I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE COULD HELP ME OUT? I NEED TO TURN IN A BID TO INSTALL ABOUT 4000 FEET OF 6' HIGH CHAINLINK NO BARBWIRE, JUST TOPRAIL, BRACES AND TRUSSES. A JOB THIS SIZE IS A GOOD ONE, I JUST WANT TO BE CAREFULL, NOT TO GO TO HIGH ON MY LABOR, BUT I ALSO DON'T WANNA CHEAT MYSELF EITHER. IF ANY ONE HAS ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR A PRICE I WOULD BE GLAD TO HEAR IT. THANKYOU.

Seems like a question that a fence builder should know the answer to. |

Re: How Much A Linear Foot For Labor?
i've never bid on a single job of this magnitude. typically i would charge about 6 dollars a foot labor. but i thought i might be to high with that much footage.

Re: How Much A Linear Foot For Labor?
disregard that i just answered my own question. you are saying mat. and labor. that's very close to the price i have worked up. i'm just double checking myself before i submit. this quote is for a commercial contractor,(new wal-mart) should that make my quote a little higher?
How much would you charge for 150 feet of 8' high w/barbed wire and 2-20' double drive gates? |
