Use your agreed rates on every daily ticket.
These public ranges are a benchmark. SubTrack stores the rates you agreed with the client on a project rate sheet. Crews apply those rates to labor, equipment, materials, and subcontractors on the daily ticket. The same figures carry into reporting and the billing documents you send.
Plumber rates FAQ
What is a typical plumber charge-out rate?
Plumber charge-out is a journeyman T&M labor line for commercial and industrial plumbing. It is not a pipefitter on process pipe. Service truck and materials are separate. Open a region page for the local number, or a region plus plumber page for a single market.
Is the plumber figure a wage or a charge-out?
A labor charge-out, not a wage. Burden, overhead, and margin are already in the published range. Overtime rules belong on the project rate sheet.
Can I bill the central plumber reference?
Not from this page alone. The central value is a public check, not a measured market median. SubTrack rate sheets are where your class, standby, and OT actually live.
