Add Insurance to Bid

share

When I am bidding on a paint job, can I add a percentage of my insurance to the job?

  1. No… just add a small percentage to the total labor plus material cost, for "overhead" … perhaps 5%…

  2. All business expenses should be taken into account when bidding. You can add a small percentage, 10-15% of the total cost, to cover things like gas, tool maintenance, insurance, etc.
