how much does a plumber cost per hour?

plumber


i would like a ballpark figure for a plumber cost in australia.
this is research to find out how much a plumber costs to do out a bathroom, with your shower , bath and toilet, the basics from scratch. and if possible, just how long all that might take.

    Call plumbers in your area for estimates. Some charge by the hour, others by the job.

    Give them the size of the imaginary room, whether it’s for new construction or remodel and what kind of fixtures (tub, toilet, etc) you have in mind, if any.

    Since that’s what they do, it’s best to have them give you a price.

    Good luck!

    Typical rates are $50.00-$75.00 + trip charge and materials.

    It will cost you more to have this done by the hour.

    Get a plumber who will give you a firm estimate in writing, which is usually not free as you could then shop it and the plumber looses time spent. I would charge $75.00 for an estimate.

    Most plumbers charge per fixture. One rate to rough it in and one rate to trim it out + materials.

    Not knowing details of existing plumbing, an estimate of time required is impossible.

    Just guessing, 6 hours to rough in & 4 hours to trim out.
