Boilermaker rates FAQ
What is a typical boilermaker charge-out rate?
Boilermaker charge-out is pressure-vessel and boiler T&M labor. Shutdown and industrial work sit at the high end. These are fully loaded billable hours, not a union package. Open a region page for the local number, or a region plus boilermaker page for a single market.
Is boilermaker a rental rate or a T&M charge-out?
A T&M charge-out for the ticket. Yard rental, fuel, and attachments are often extra. Do not paste a rental-yard weekend price onto a signed LEM.
