Plumbing costs

Can't Post | Private Reply

Three questions:

1. What are people paying, per day, for a good plumber?

2. What is the cost of 1/2" copper pipe (6 meter length is standard)?

3. What are people paying, per day, for a good electrician?

I know you are asking about costs (without saying where, and that does matter), and not asking about how to employ the men. But... You should consider hiring such specialty workers by the job, not by the day or week. Hiring by the job relieves you of any obligations to the IMSS. If you hire them by time, you could find yourself needing to deal with IMSS, which you want to avoid where possible.

For more about that than you could ever want to know, read here: http://rollybrook.com/employee-pay.htm
