That's an understatement... but if you can deal with the paperwork, I hear there is good profit. I've not experience "good" profit on any new construction ever, including govt. work.GSMB Inc. said:A lot of requirements?![]()

How much do you charge an hour for plumbing, electrical, carpentry, concrete work, finish carpentry, painting? Can you give me examples? I don’t have insurances at this time but, witch insurances do they require (government)?jgbrog said:gsmb,
We do some work for local gov't agencies: county redevelopment authority and township block grant program. These programs offer loans and/or grants to homeowners and business owners for improvements.
The way it works at these agencies is you apply to get on the bid list. Fairly easy: just provide business license, insurance documents, references of completed jobs.
If accepted you will recieve bids periodically. The bids are usually sent out to only 2 or 3 contractors, all pre-qualified, so low bid gets the job.
We bid these jobs exactly as we would any other job, so the profit is equal to what we normally would earn.
Hope this helps. It is a good place to start.
I too would be interested in doing other gov't work, so I look forward to more info.
