How I price a job

[@annabelleattwood]

Tricky i hope you got the job,. Well done for entertaining all your friends around the globe last night. God bless. Keep going to reach your goal✌️✌️✌️

[@mattjones708]

Very simple Tricky....10k They have the money. If they want quality and safety for their people they will pay. I hope you get the job.

[@markhuckle8932]

Tbh that dig out and and footings could be an absolute nightmare mate. I would get some ground workers in and just price the brickwork and steps. It could end up costing 6,500+ just for the excavation and footings💯👍like you said tree roots, collapsed drains and god only knows

[@bradleemiles8805]

Your videos are easy the best and most educational bricky videos on KZbin I'm learning alot keep up the good work I need to learn how to read and workout how to use plans I'm definitely not the sharpest tool in the shed lol

[@trickybrickys]

Stick with it buddy. You'll be fine 🙂

[@bradleemiles8805]

@@trickybrickys thanks 👍

[@alanpayne8857]

I would advise the customer to have a contingency in place for any unforseen issues below the ground mate. Make sure you advise them that any unforeseen issues will incur extra Labour/Material cost...

[@trickybrickys]

Yes mate. I've got all that I writing ✍️. There was obviously a reason why it failed in the first place hey

[@simonburch8762]

If you are only using skips that will be pretty expensive. Be interested to see what footings that existing wall is already on. They look pretty deep for the weight the new wall will be. No idea of cost but look forward to the videos.

[@trickybrickys]

That's it. You never know what's in the ground till u dig 🤣🤣

[@ryc650]

Thanks for the content and knowledge. Very inspiring to get of site and not work for big firms

[@michaelforrester816]

Hi mate. Its one of those jobs where problems will arise. Whatever your figure is add another week on. Dont undersell yourself, your work looks the nuts.

[@TheKeithfarren]

I can’t wait to see your work, the before/after. You can do it 👌🏽💛

[@trickybrickys]

I hope so 🙏

[@TopCatsBack]

I built a big retaining wall and steps in my garden last year made steps 1800 wide 450 deep each step going up 2 coarses each step and 8 steps in it with walls either side etc i had 3 grabs of earth come out concreted footing etc 95p a brick and blocks aswell ...i reckon i done £5 K in materials ...id be very careful as people just dont appreciate whats involved as theres lot of work that ent seen ...dont do it for jam sandwiches.

[@tastethevenom6414]

Good luck hope you get the job pal 👍🏼

[@markhobbs2907]

Make sure the price is for the job as Described, anything outside that like remedial repairs to drainage or additional drainage is extra and putting drainage in between the flowerbeds and outside walls are extra too good luck mate will be watching 👍👍👍

[@trickybrickys]

Yes mate that's it. I've only priced the drawing. Hopefully I get it 🙏

[@evocarti]

For labour only I'd be pricing that up to nearly 5-6 grand because I've worked on old people's homes before and they have quiet periods (usually 10 til 12 and 3 til 4 to allow residents to nap and have grandkids 'round). Gunning all that out would have to suit their timetable, not yours. Alongside factoring in your fuel if you haven't got digs. I'd also defo ad a hoddy to the price because there's no way you're getting all that done on your own with noise restrictions. Other than that, it's gonna be an interesting build.

[@trickybrickys]

Yeah mate. It will be interesting for sure. Hopefully I'll get it 😊

[@joshy3602]

I was thinking £7000 labour before you mentioned your price. Also id get a grab wagon instead of skips, way cheaper and can get more on. Good luck

[@luketaylor8602]

Looks a good job mate, hope you get it, will be a good one to watch. I like doing steps and disabled ramps, a bit of a change from the norm. I cant be the only one who sees the railings and concrete steps and thinks "fack sake why cant it just be all brick and slabs" lol

[@trickybrickys]

Always the way 🤣🤣

[@stevenaldred4571]

keep up the good work tricky looking forward to video of the job just cover yourself with time regarding drainage and tree roots

[@simorris485]

£7,000 total………Labour = bricklayer 18 days (£5,400) + labourer 10 days (£1,600) all materials, skips, large plant supplied by others. Drain works excluded. Will you need to allow any attendance for the handrail install? Hope you win it - would like to watch that one!

[@trickybrickys]

Yeah mate. I'm hoping I get it too. It's a nice size project 👌 ☺️

[@tomhunt6487]

I would say 2-3 weeks with for 1 skilled, 1 semi skilled, and 1 labourer. 1.7t digger with breaker, 1tonne dumper. Voly and barrow concrete, I would price that £19500 all in plus railings on top of that price.

Hi tricky just watched the pricing job my dad always says when pricing up get a and in when put price they said yes it's your job then you say and I haven't finished yet try get. Bit more lol I've built steps in the 1970 Butlins chalet on the gable ends the the ready made steps were heavy good luck with the job

[@davey4818]

Hi trick Hope you get this pal Im a little different when come to pricing I can pretty well see the money just judging its size I price at £1000 cubic meter for me being a tradesmen and one labourer plus materials and plant on top of that You will have to harris fence the site off stop kids getting in plus reinstate ground back up to what you've built So if it's 3m x 3m x 2m £18k That's why if i build an extension same size ish it looks like your getting something for the money Problem with my price your now in competitive land with everyone else Where as your price you will get the job Maybe best you stick an extra £3k on to put towards ya van 9 n half you will still get that job

[@alanscrimshaw1558]

IMO… nightmare of a job that for a self employed bricky. Need experienced squad on that, from top of head £19k all in. Inc. all materials (inc ironwork), labour and plant hire. All ground works and waste disposal. Think about it 🤪. The architect is trying to reduce weight there. You can see what you’re building on… whose name is on the job? Has the drains been inspected? I’d take a guess there and say there’s not adequate founds original build and slipped. 👍🏻

[@trickybrickys]

I think the foundation are about 2 inch thick 🤣🤣 I've priced the drawing. Any problems in the ground are extra on top. I haven't got the over heads like a big squad. I think I'll do OK. Tune in to find out 😊😊🤣🤣

A lot of the pricing depends on the result they want. If its all about getting the cheapest price possible then you get what you pay for. If its about high spec, you need to take your time and give the customer a grade A job.. In this case there's a few unknowns so I'd warn them there might be extras if that tree has to come down or drains redirected/ repaired or something like that. A good opportunity to show your skills off, hope you get the job... I'm not a builder so what do I know?
