I'm trying to get better at pricing bat jobs, and have gone to flat rates vs hourly. I remember someone had a checklist for houses that added to the cost? Things like dormers, steepness of the roof, condition of roof etc?
I think it was Paul.
Anyone got a tried and true method for figuring the costs to do a bat seal and exclusion?

Yeah Paul but I'm that idiot! Maybe it was Ron - I know it was someone who does a lot of bats
Just trying to streamline it, feel I am doing ok so far but want to make less mistakes etc

Guesstimate your hours to complete....take in to account the last trip to remove bat valves and reinspect...then add 5 hours....that is what i do typically as i know it usually takes longer once i get into the job....then figure out roughly materials needed....it is better to over estimate than under....you can always give the customer a break on the last pmt
Have to bid at what you are willing to do the job for
