hi
I have a job in that is hard to price, it will be two 8′ X 8′ black coriboard signs fitted to either side of an old "For sale" frame, it is all white text and a digital print
access is easy and it is only round the corner from my shop but it is high up, i dont want to go in on the job to cheap
Thanks for any input

Regardless of the substrate material it’s the same vinyl, print & labout costs – which to be fair doing it in alu-comp is the difference of £10 a sheet to £30 a sheet (£80 extra cost on the job…for something that could last years longer…and some abuse)
Anyway – cheap – dirt cheap..£400…if you REALLY want it.
‘cheap’ – £500….the ‘mate’s rates’
doing it ‘well’ in alu. – £650…bit of reasonable profit – well worth the effort.
What it’s worth if done if you thought of fit as a ‘proper sign’ rather than as a ‘disposable’…(and you should be under no illusions that IF it gets trashed in 6 months it’ll be YOUR fault!)….£800+

If coriboard means correx/coroplast, why are you using it for a final sign?
(not trying to sound mean)
Get the right material for the job, something which will last longer than a year, and charge accordingly.
(Alumalite, Dibond)
That’s a big sign, and it would make you look bad if it warps, fades, etc.
Will you be making the seam vertically or horizontally?
Just wondering.

to tell the truth he wanted the coriboard, and as it is only on a for sale frame( big but crude, and right beside a duel carriageway i thought if anything failed on the framing etc then if there was coriboard pieces in the road they would be less dangerous than alu. or composite..
and he bled his heart out on how he needed it cheap, so this was the cheapest way to do it in my eyes, i charged him £500.00 fitted and he still cried about it
Cheers for your input
