You gotta know your market in your area first. See what competitors are charging for similar work, but don’t race to be the cheapest because the cheapest companies usually attract the worst clients.
The real question is: what value are you bringing that others aren’t? Better communication, showing up on time, cleaner work, warranties, follow-ups, professionalism, better materials, faster response times… those things justify charging more.
If customers keep saying yes immediately, you might actually be too cheap. If everyone says no, you’re probably too high or not explaining your value enough. The sweet spot is when some people say yes, some say no, and the people who hire you feel confident paying for quality.
