Stop guessing. Know your real price.
The Real Price Check is the full pricing calculator our mentees use. Put in your actual costs and see what the job really costs you and what to charge, before you bid.
Get the Real Price Check for $60One-time $60. Works on your phone. Real numbers from 40+ years in concrete.
Most guys don't lose money on concrete.They lose it on everything else.
You know what a yard costs. But gravel, steel, forms, crew pay and overhead add up fast, and they're the first things that get forgotten when you're quoting from the truck.
Miss your overhead on one driveway and that's around $900 you just worked for free. Do that every job and it adds up to a lot of money every year.
