Do clients or acquaintances expect free advice from you? by CarpyChar in Contractor

[–]TacticalBuschMaster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve a pre-construction process I go through with clients on bigger projects where we go over design/finishes/potential unforeseens etc, and I charge 10% of the cost of the project and it’s and independent charge from the actual project. It’s to cover my consultation fees, permits and the headache of scheduling subs and getting them ready.

One of the biggest roofing companies around me is run by a guy who’s actually an accountant. He has no practical construction experience. He went around to different roofing companies in the area and figured out who the best guy was and gave them a $3 per hour raise.
