Flat Rate Pricing, also known as Menu-based pricing, is widely used in the Plumbing, HVAC and Electrical trades in the USA.


Flat rate pricing is used to give customers a quote for service before the work has begun. 

This is accomplished by computing an overall price for the service, using national averages for parts costs, estimated labor hours + mark-up for overhead and operating costs.
