Work budget
Hi Ger
Everywhere in the country the mouth comes out, pesos more, pesos less, the same, that would be around without the last economic breakdowns something of 750 to 900 pesos; from there more or less depending on the quality of work (electrician), the quality of the work, and type of work. Of course, the same is not true in Puerto Madero, which is in the middle of the pampas, but at the same time it will not vary by more than 20%. In cases of repairs the standards are different, and the prices are more suited to the times and circumstances; I agree with you, it is done in 8 hours and you can charge less if they are your first jobs.
Everyone will know ... but at 1200 I don't even take half a day. You will always find clients who tell you that it is expensive and if instead of 1200 you ask 700 they also tell you that it is expensive, because they are mice with pardon of the animal. I agree that if the job is worth 3200 copper something less to be more competitive and secure the job, but not charge a third of what it is worth
Well-charged work begins to be expensive when others charge anything and as they charge anything, they do anything, then you start to find metal boxes without their earth, pipes without connectors, crooked boxes, sockets melted by loose connections, cables of smaller section , you take poorly polarized etc etc etc, why? Because what counts is to make it fast and to stay as it is
On the other hand they say 1200 1500 in a dua is good silver, an air installer charges 3000 per installation, 2 hours of labor and the same customer who said 1500 is expensive for a full day of an electrician, gladly pays for the installation of the air, in that sense that guild is much more organized than the electric one, here as most do not value their position
It is not the same competition in the case of the installers of Aires, in electricity they go to work without knowing and compete unevenly, the light bulb turns on; then with the servise the question is to work every day and make a daily average of 1600 to 1800 pesos, so you arrive on Saturday with eight lucas, sometimes more sometimes less; and of course you make customers but you can't kill them if you want to be called and recommended.
I have quit a lot of small work or repair, luckily I have some great works, but I never stop going if they call me, and I combine one thing with the other. The half day I get repaired, I usually do 900 pesos, if it is a minimum work of one hour, you do 400 pesos, but you are supposed to continue with something else. The problem is when the works do not appear, but you cannot try to save a week by charging what you did in a day. It is an advantage when you are a veteran and they know you, you reap what you have sown, but if you start killing, in the same way they call you "carero" and it is over
elektomaq, I have very large works (three 280m-300m-450m), and I usually work alone. I understand that in BsAs it is different, but I had an employee for a couple of months in November and last December, then I hired junior electricians. But I don't kill the one who always gave me work, it's my style, there are others who work differently.
No ... I do not talk about charging the week for a half-day job, that never ... I just talk about charging what the job is worth and a little less, just as you said you would charge that job between 2000 and 2600 which seems correct to me but it is not a matter of charging what the client wants,
Hi Carlos, it's like you say, on a good day an electrician can get some 2000 pesos in service if he works all day, it's not common, it doesn't happen every day, at least outside the big megacities, but in jobs of new building works is different, the prices are different, and quietly 50 to 80% more than those 2000 pesos that you have so much to repair are removed.
When you say officer and assistant, you talk about hired people, and those people are electrician or not, they don't reach that amount in four days.
In the end people know what happened. The client called me again to ask me to add it apparently another wanted to spend more expensive. And that they believe the installation was already done, he told me that he did it but that it didn't work that he skipped the thermals every time he connected something. And mmmmm is a horror what I found all unipolar cables section 1.5 mm in sockets and without pulling FATAL ERROR also in the light key instead of putting the lamp phase put the installation short
Tube to charge you more than it had to be for everything I found
NASTOR: how are you ??? How much do you charge the day of work with an assistant? (because many times you need a hand) and how much do you charge for a repair that is 2 hours or day? I consult you to be aware of the prices, and not kill the client or give away my work
Luis Cabj: That always happens !!!! And that's where you have double work and a secure customer !!! It doesn't matter if repair takes half a day, there you charge it triple. And I told you the classic phrase: I DO NOT CHARGE YOU FOR WHAT I DID, I CHARGE YOU FOR KNOWING HOW IT IS DONE AND FOR KNOWING WHAT SCREW OR CABLE I HAVE TO CONNECT !!!!
Hello Carlos, I will pass you as I handle myself, which does not mean that it is the right thing, unless the rest do it that way. I am from a small city of Santa Fe, this is not valid for Rosario center, Córdoba center or Buenos Aires center or another place where you work being practically anonymous; I manage with clients, people that I have harvested through many years, and it is necessary to differentiate the home service to individuals, in which I charge a value, and the works of work, where the price is another and there is much more money left. I don't work with an assistant, at most I hire a junior electrician
I clarify, I never work for time, that's my way of calculating certain repair jobs. If it is in a new work, I calculate something of 850 pesos the mouth, when it is a simple refinement or small department, the number is reduced, but the time of work also. The minimum for that item is 1000 pesos per half day, it can reach 1500 pesos.
Change if it is service, the minimum work, that is an hour or less, something of 400 pesos, the pair of prayers something of 600 pesos, the half day 1000/1200 pesos depends on the repair work, the day of 1800 to 2000 pesos .
If it is a grounding fault (leakage) or short circuit something I do in a couple of hours, about 1000 pesos or 500 minimum, this guy no longer gives it away, before he charged like any job; if it is an emergency, more; If it rains more, if it is Sunday a little more. Today is getting hard, they call little for repairs, but luckily I have works for the rest of the year. But the slogan is not to lose customers, that is, of every 10 customers, eight should call you again for work and price compliance. Subjects industries very little, almost nothing in recent years; Something from the municipality.
There are days when things get difficult, so there is progress in the work, otherwise, that day you go back. Anyway, there are times that you make 500 pesos in the middle of the day and you deny a lot for the difficulties, it is not that you put a number and it leaves.
It's perfect, the number is reasonable, it's perfect. because in our field you cannot specify the time according to the fault that exists, and more if you have problems with a circuit breaker that jumps and you have to check word of mouth it is difficult to calculate or pass a price, you can find it in 10 minutes or half day, a big hug !!!
