Contractor Question: How much do I bid for a roofing job?

Posted by admin
Querious asked:


I am bidding a small roofing job on new construction for a meeting hall. My part of it is just to lay down 1/4″ plywood on a very oddly shaped roof. Someone else will do the rest. Thus, no hauling away, no fascia boards, no metal vents, flashing etc. Just my labor.
I estimate that it will take me six days by myself to do the job. How much should I charge? In other words, what should I charge per man hour here in So. California to do roofing work?
