Simple Pricing
Effective December 2021, our new pricing structure will go into effect:
I have experienced reduced overall volume, a very sporadic workload, and increased costs due to the market response to and demands of government recommended COVID-19 measures and general fears of the virus itself. Increase of inflation and supply chain challenges have driven up my Cost of Service (COS) up dramatically in the past year. I have always tried to give the best value for the cost of my services, and will continue to do so, but I cannot absorb this much increase in costs perpetually.
PLUMBING SERVICE PRICES consist of a base fee of $95 for the trip and overhead, plus material over $10, a flat-rate charge per task (approx. $150 per hr for plumbing plus NC sales tax where applicable. If we come out to install a standard toilet that is supplied by the customer and no additional modification of the plumbing is needed, the pricing works as:
- $95 Base fee.
$112.50 for the basic installation of a standard toilet (45 min. task fee). The supply tube and wax ring are less than $10, so there is no additional charge for material. - Total job price $207.50 PLUS TAX (6.75% in Union County)
- A second toilet would work like: $95 Base Fee + $112.50 Toilet 1 + $112.50 Toilet 2 = Job Price $320 + sales tax, which brings the total to $341.16. So the base fee is only applied once per visit.
HOME SPECIALTY SERVICES: I have decided to postpone expansion of services to beyond plumbing services until a more appropriate time.
