I've heard from more than one source that the average electrical contractor is only making 2.75% net profit. Been doing electrical work for about 22 years; only started my own company about 4.5 years ago. Been working my a-- off and thinking it is not worth working for myself much longer.
Plumbers in my area (Washington DC suburbs) are charging $120 to $150 per hour while electricians are at $75 to $85. What the heck are we doing?
Anybody out there making money? How are you doing it? Anybody using flat rate pricing?
Sorry for the long first post but I don't want to give up yet. Just looking for answers.
