A lot of contractor’s think that if you pay someone $25/hr, you use that on your bid and just add your overhead and profit. And unfortunately, I’ve been guilty of that in the past but I don’t want you to have to learn the hard way like me, so here’s a full breakdown of how we bid our labor: Base hourly cost: the hourly rate you pay your employee Labor burden: payroll taxes, PTO, Benefits = 35% Labor productivity: No crew is ever 100% productive out in the field — there are always surprises, planning and things that aren’t production related to the bid. We call this our labor productivity percentage and typically we assume our labor is 70–80% spent on production work. We adjust this based off of the season. So to break down the equation: (Base rate + Burden ÷ Labor Productivity) x (OH + Profit) Base Rate: $25 Burden (35%): $8.75 Subtotal: $33.75 Labor Productivity (75% example): $33.75 ÷ 0.75 = $45.00 Overhead 15%: $6.75 Profit 15%: $6.75 Total bid price: $58.50 That $25/hr employee actually needs to be billed at $58.50/hr just to hit 15% overhead and 15% profit. If you have any questions shoot me a DM, always happy to help!
