: What constitutes a "daytime emergency"? If it is before 8:00 a.m. or after 4:30 p.m. it would be overtime. Otherwise it should just be the regular rate times the amount of time used. : : Had to have a plumber come out first thing the other morning and replace a well pump. also, had him replace two captive air tanks. I think his rate was more than exorbinant. What is a range of acceptable daytime emergency rates for the central Ohio area? Anyone have any idea? Appreciate any information. most plumbers have gone to a flat rate pricing schedule and do not charge by the hour. this rate can be based on a number of factors (overhead etc.) the days of 50 dollars an hour are gone.
