Day rates..

[Rupe]

Rigging or pruning?

[Steve Bullman]

£400 min

 

£450 would be better, but agreed, no one should be going out for less than £400 a day.

 

As for the other replies, ignore the awkward sods

1000 notes at least.

Our price depends on what kit, and whats required.

Anywhere from £250 to £750 per day

Reason I was asking was, usually day rates are give for subby work as a standard thing.

 

If for own work, it varies a lot. Basically for this, work out your over heads and add what ever profit you need and possibly some contingency.

 

I would say quoting a day rate to a private customer will end in tears though:thumbdown:

You might get shot down for saying that but its spot on:thumbup1:

 

I've worked with a lad for £250 a day with a pair of felcos each and nothing to take away, yet £750 for a tree crew is not silly money if they are top of the game either.

Not if it's, as alluded to before, specific to a job. And the job is not referenced.

 

Anyway, if the client is willing to go with a cheaper price, good luck to them, and more fool to the contractor for being cheaper.
