I wouldn't go below $125.
For new work??I wouldn't go below $125.
New construction? Reno? Resi, commercial?
:thumbup:This is for new work or houses that have been completely gutted.
Sounds about right..:laughing:I have done a lot of research, and came up with $700 per opening. But you will see me on here daily :laughing:
I would only do unit pricing on resi or commercial tenant finish out.How do you guys figure out your prices per opening? I've been trying to research old posts, but I found a lot of people saying they charge 20-25 per outlet or receptacle. That includes parts and labor. I feel like that number should be higher. The per opening bidding seems appealing though because it's easy to adjust the price if the customer wants to add or remove something. This is for new work or houses that have been completely gutted.
Do you do additions?Ops did not read your post we don't do new construction.

Lame but real.Customer,"How much do you charge per opening?
Electrician "$20"
Customer,"Okay I have a job for you"
Electrician , "Okay I'll be right there".
Customer,"I want a receptacle right there"
Electrician,Okay.
Electrician, "Okay that's done ,What else would you like?"
Customer,"That's all thank you"
Customer hands the electrician a $20 bill and says,I'll call you again.
The electrician just used up about 3 hours when it's all said and done and made $20 because that's what he charges per opening,,,,,,,,WHAT A SAP.....:laughing:
