What is a "going rate"?
I do not understand the concept.
I have some rates for some of the work I do but it always changes do to...well, lots of things. Could be the client is a friend or an A-H0le (different "going rate" there).
If I do the work and I like to do it...different rate.
Have a sub do the work...different rate.
Not too many contractors bidding the job...different rate.
Unlicensed, drug addled hacks or illegals bidding...different rate.
I didn't get any the knight before...different rate.
Think I can make a good bit of money on the job...different rate.
Come to think of it you must be asking about the "official-super-secret-government-mandated-vinyl-55-1/2-paper-'going-rate'-for-all-localities" rate that all free-born men as contractors must charge for all vinyl work performed.
lol well yea it is the super secret government stuff that means charge more right lol jk well there is standard rates <Going Rate> for some things that will move a little up and down depending on the area and a few other key points but i get what you are saying.:thumbsup:
Commercial vinyl is generally 54" wide and generally comes in 30 yard bolts. It is also generally bid by the linear yard. That number would be contingent upon a number of things specific to that job.
What is the going rate per square foot removing and laying on vinyl 55 1/2 inch wall paper? including glue, and labor. no paper included in this bid.[/quo
I am not sure what it is per square foot. But I usually figure out how many single rolls, which is $15 or $20 per single roll, they figure the cost of the entire room. If you need a pasting machine, I have one for sale. It will cut the installation time by at least 1/2 the time.
