How many hours for you and the wife each day
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79079991 Average of 7 per day. We didn't keep exact count. 6 hrs per day x 2 in a right to work state. Thats 12 hrs total per day or 72 Hours total. 72 x 25 = 1800.00 total labor and 1900.00 materials. $3700.00 If you have insurance I would increase that bill to cover that too. Thats with your wife helping you. You did most of the work yes. ? Yes, I did all the labor and the wife was my apprentice. What a mess. After opening the floor I was staring at six inches of water in the entire crawlspace. Had to go and purchase a sump pump and plumbing fittings to get the water out of the crawlspace. A inch and half pipe gushed water for 45 minutes before I could see the muddy dirt. This job went from an easy remodel to a frustrating endeavor. ...

Quoting: Tynyyn How many hours for you and the wife each day Average of 7 per day. We didn't keep exact count. Too dodgy to average your hours, then to claim afterwards the many extra hours the job took you. Better idea is to take a photo when you start work each day, and upon ending the day of work, take another photograph. Photographs are time-stamped, so there's no guessing. Photos can also chronicle the work done after each day. Also if you have to go to the store for more materials, keep track of that and figure out if you decide to charge an hourly rate for that different from the hourly rate you charge for doing the work. We call those jobs clusterfucks and you need to get on the guys advice.that mess has a hundred headaches.better cover your ass.termites and water,oh shit!
