Do contractors usually charge tax for insurance claims?
Insurance agreed to pay 21K to replace roof. After we gave the contractor our insurance papers he charged quoted us:
Roof replacement cost
TAX
O&P (Overhead and Profit)
His quote convinently came out to 20K. Do contractors usually charge tax and overhead and profit?
