We're $65.00 per hour, and after looking at our mechanic's bill, $89.00 per hour shop rate, and he's not a dealer. I was thinking of raising our additional labor rates.

What do local plumbers or electricians charge per hour? You guys time is worth at least the prevailing market rate for other trades.

My subcontractors are locked in at that rate for extra work, so it seems to work pretty well.
