Weekend Rates

if the job must be done after hours we charge an average of 40% more

Harvey:  If you call a tow truck after hours do you pay extra?  If you call a plumber do they charge extra?  You have to consider that your knowledge, equipment and man power is woth something.  This is why even insurance companys expect to pay more.  You will find that not many water and smoke losses etc. come between 8 & 5.  So to pay people to be on call or how ever you handle it you will soon have to pay more for after hours.  After all you can,t leave till the job is done.   However I never do more after hours than just contain the damage.  Demolition is left for regular hours unless I have to drop a ceiling for saftey or some other major comcern.  But you wil find unless you have been authorized you may have a problem with the after hours demolition.  Since the floor & cabinest were already done what more damage could of occurred waiting till Monday?
