My Grandpa is a retired Master Electrician from the Austin area. We were having a conversation about electrical work the other day as I do some on the side since I was trained in it from high school on up. I am thinking that I would like to switch over to that trade once I get fed up good with the computers I work on every day.
My question is this. What is the hourly rate an electrician would charge on his own and what is the rate one would be billed out at by their company? I am hoping to gather some info from the Austin area. Residential or commercial is fine, I am just trying to get a feel for if it is an option. If you could PM me, that would be great!
