When you pay for a job, you pay not only for the work materials, but also:
- Knowledge
- Experience
- Study
- Tools
- Services
- Time to go
- Punctuality
- Accountability
- Accuracy
- Guaranteed
- Sacrifices
- Safety and security
No one can degrade other people's work by judging prices.
Only by knowing all the elements necessary for the production of a certain work can you estimate the actual cost? .
