What is a Man-Hour? [Explained]
We commonly get the question of, "What is a Man-hour"?
While most home services companies bill by the hour they forget to tell you that they bill by the man-hour. Even if they did tell you that, you probably didn't know what they meant when they said it. I am going to fill you in on what a man-hour is and how you can calculate what your bill is going to be. It's pretty simple.

Calculate: One Man-Hour
Let's say you had 1 technician work at your house for 2 hours. Assuming the man-hour rate is $75.00/hr then the rate would be calculated like this:
1 Technician x 2 hours work = 2 Man-hour's
~then~
2 Man-hour's x $75.00hr = $150.00
~then~
2 Man-hour's x $75.00hr = $150.00
Calculate: Multiple Man-Hours
Let's say you had 3 technicians work at your house for 2 hours. Assuming the man-hour rate is $75.00/hr then the rate would be calculated like this:
3 Technicians x 2 hours worked = 6 Man-hour's
~then~
6 Man-hour's x $75.00hr = $450.00
~then~
6 Man-hour's x $75.00hr = $450.00
