Labor Rates
Whenever possible, I|S will deliver a fix bid quote to you for services. We know it’s imperative that costs stay fixed (at least without a signed approval). With that in mind, if you have a fixed budget, submit that to us and we will do everything in our power to stay inside that number. In instances where it’s not feasible to quote a fixed amount (Retro-Fits, General Service), we will submit an itemized invoice that, in most cases, is written in a way that you may copy and paste into budget request invoice. Below is a general list of rates and itemized labor tasks to help you budget our projects. If you have specific equipment and you prefer itemized pricing, contact us.
