Basic setup only. Utility charges, rental duration and later removal excluded.

Estimated pricing

$1,800–$4,050 per setup

Project ranges include labor and standard installation materials unless a listing says otherwise. Hourly rates are labor only, and equipment you supply (such as chargers, fixtures or fans) is not included. Permit fees and sales tax are additional. Estimates are free, including on-site visits.

Electrical work may require openings in walls or ceilings. Drywall patching, texture, and painting are not included and must be arranged with others.

What affects the scope and cost

A common question

Does the setup price cover its rental period and removal?
