FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
$75 per hour is my base rate, adjusted according to the degree of difficulty of the job. For instance, I will deduct 10% if simply working in the living room and a ladder is not needed. 10% will be added if the work is in extreme hot or cold.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to know who referred you to me. A phone conversation with new customers helps me to familiarize myself with their project and to learn a convenient time to look at the job.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
1000 hours of classroom education and 8000 hours of on-the-job training as an apprentice with IBEW Local 99 were required before receiving my RI Journeymans License in 1981. Two years later I obtained my RI Electrical Contractor's License.
