How Pricing Works

If you'd like to learn more about Cost Plus, the article below offers a comprehensive explanation of the benefits of a Cost-Plus model. 

​

COST PLUS MODEL
 

Jacob Construction works on a "Cost-Plus" basis, which we believe is the fairest and most transparent arrangement for both our clients and our team.

​

In practice, this means we don't mark up direct contractor labour, only materials and subcontractors, plus a fixed percentage to cover management, overhead, and profit.

 

We maintain detailed timesheets and provide copies of receipts for billed expenses.

​​​

Our standard rates are:

  • $85/hr (+GST) for a General contractor

  • $65/hr (+GST) for a Lead carpenter

  • $40–55/hr (+GST) for an apprentice carpenter (depending on experience)

  • 15% markup on materials and subcontractors.

  • Receipt copies are included with invoices.​

​

We also offer a discounted rate for non-profits and NGO's, please get in touch for details.
