A company that sells premanufactured homes hired me for an electrical troubleshoot. the building came prewired from a factory and this was already a red flag. The amount of electrical problems I found was outstanding. 3 hot ground reversed circuits, 3 gfci breakers tripping and cant be reset, 10 3way switch locations wired wrong and not working, every receptacle was a junction with loose backstabs etc etc. I detailed all work with pictures and a write up.

It took a 9 hour day with 2 journeyman and 1 apprentice, and another 4 hour day with 1 journeyman and 1 apprentice. I charge $330 per hour for the 3 man crew and $205 for 1Jman and apprentice. Invoice was close to 4k.
