Still to price
- Food / per-diem — Crew eat. You pay or they keep the receipt forever.
- Parking — Downtown jobs eat cash like it is nothing.
- Dump fees — Debris leaves in a truck. Dump fees belong on the sheet.
- Small tools — Bits, blades, bags, consumables. They add up while you are not looking.
- Wear — Equipment does not last forever. Charge like you know that.
- Second trip — Did you price the second trip?
- PM time — Someone has to run this job. That someone is not free.
- Warranty — Callbacks are a cost. Pretending they are a personality trait does not help.
- Insurance bump — One claim and you will wish this line existed.
- N/A: Hotel
- N/A: Permits
- N/A: Weather delay
- N/A: Tax
