Rich is an unknown quantity at this point
Getting the jobs is not really the problem. My work is steady. Most of my work is segmental. For walls my prices range from $30 to $40 a FF and for pavers they start at $15 and it goes up from there depending on the paver, how many cuts and how much fill, etc. $15 is basically little to no cuts. I'm almost positive that I'm in the right bracket.

It just seems that after you figure in the materials, the gas for the machinery, sales tax (which doesb not really affect me) then insurance and any advertising that I have done (in which is not much either except for the business line).

Getting the work is not the problem for me. My guess is probably the speed in which I work. I do work hard though. I'm not lazy in anyway. I'm very meticulous. I know it sounds like I'm answering my own question but I'm still not sure at what point to hire. It's kind of scary for me.
