Should i just charge her a normal hourly rate to have the pavers removed and than just charge my normal install rate minus roughly 4.50sq ft for the cost of pavers since she already has them? Basically I think 2 guys can remove the pavers in an 8 hour day, so round that up to 10hrs at $98 hr = $980 for removal.
I guess the price of pavers makes a little difference too. Most of the pavers we install cost us $2-$3 per sq. ft. But If we used Belgard those prices [locally] are upwards of $6-$7 per sq. ft. But we don't ever do much Belgard pavers - namely because of that big jump in price between our local paver suppliers and the Belgard product.
As for pricing I charge similarly to you, materials + time on most things, but if the job is big enough you can break it down by square foot. Anything under 1000 feet though I go materials + time, Mainly because once the "super wet" sealer is mixed, it has to be used all at once, so you charge for the full bucket, where as if you went per ...
Mortared flagstone and pavers installs are two different worlds in terms of pricing. Mortared Flagstone is usually 100% more in cost than pavers, if done correctly (poured slab with gravel under it, reinforced with wire and rebar).
if your comparing apples to apples how much of a difference are you going to find between ep henry and another manufacturer? maybe at most $0.20-.30 per square foot for a similar paver. on a 800sf patio that's a whopping $240 difference. if that's worth it to you than go ahead and use the cheaper paver. i for one look for the manufacturer that makes a quality paver and stands behind their ...
With a 4-man crew, skid steer and our paver cart we normally do 1200-1500 square feet per day, that's roughly 10-12 pallets depending on square footage of each pallet. The best we ever did was 14 pallets in one day, those were 4x8s, we were screeding over concrete and it was a long day.
I usually charge about $.75 a sq. ft. to seal. If the material is costing you about $.30 a sq. to seal. You are turning a pretty good profit. Cleaning seems like it would take the most time. That might be cost per hr. on the cleaning plus so much a sq. ft. on the sealing.
When we sell it, we tell the contractor/customer it will cover between 80-90 square foot per bag. This is the case with most un-tumbled pavers, but with tumbled ones the coverage is a little less. Based on a 50 lb Alliance Polymeric Sand
i haven't figured out how you only made $5 on this job how much are you paying for your pavers my numbers are pavers are $1.40-$2.00 sq ft (60sq ft)= $84.00-$120.00 ton of sand $23.00 crush an run $20.00 these numbers are worst case materials cost $163.00 add fuel plus whatever make cost $200.00 and if you charge $11.00 that makes $660.00
Beat this. I did my first home show this weekend. I am glad i wasn't promoting pavers at this show. There were about 15 paver displays. 1 of them was advertising pavers from 9.50!!!! I called the guy out on this and asked him how he could do this. His response was "Well its going to be the...
