i am about fed up being the brides maid !!! :angry: the last 5- 1000 sq plus jobs i bid, i have been second.
on large commercial jobs how do some of you guys figure your P and O.
my normal is 5% overhead and 15% profit.
i am located in NJ.
40% profit, but I've been as low as 9
we do all our own work and pride our selves doing the job right.
i have been 3% - 10% high according to the customers.
P&O figured on top of all costs.
How much have you missed the bid by? Are you using subs or doing the work inhouse?
