BNI Remodeling Costbook 2008
National Averages for Contractor Costs for Remodeling

Here you'll find national averages for prices a contractor would expect to pay, plus allowances for handling, wage rates for each trade and type of work, as well as overhead and profit.

You'll find prices for the most difficult types of estimates, such as demolition, cutting and patching, working around existing conditions, plus minimum quantity and costs.

This specialized remodeling edition of the Building News Construction Costbooks covers all aspects of this unique type of estimating -- hidden costs, working around existing conditions, minimum quantities. Costs for overhead and profit are different because a different type of contractor does remodeling work and the jobs are much smaller than those for new construction.

Costs cover all divisions of the CSI MASTERFORMAT and are presented in a unit price format with separate material and labor pricing. Also included are costs for asbestos removal and an extensive section on demolition. Complete man-hour tables provide labor data and scheduling information
