This is in the Medfield area...the builder trenchs everthing.I just install the wire, conduits,etc...

These houses sell over 7 figures. I bid almost $35000 for the package with 30 recessed lights(which some of my associates concur is low) and the builder is thinking (dreaming) mid 20's...I estimated 400 man hours and $8500 in stock.

I am well aware that real estate in New England has soared to some of the highest levels of this country...and so has the cost of living here too. All materials have increased as of the New Year as well as overhead expenses.

I estimate if I wired the house for the mid 20's, I will be doing it for $20 an hour by the time I'm done. I'd rather sit home.

I just wanted to see what others here think...
