Rate Structure

At Sarah’s Shipshape Services, we believe in transparency, fair pricing, and clear communication—starting with our rates. Our work is tailored, thoughtful, and meticulous. We are not a yard or a volume-based operation. We’re a specialized, mobile marine electrical service focused on quality, safety, and long-term reliability.

We bill by the hour, with separate rates depending on which member of our team is performing the work. This allows us to give accurate estimates based on real labor hours, and ensures that you see exactly where your investment is going.

Lead Electrician – $230/hour

Additional Costs

In addition to hourly labor, the following charges may apply:

• Travel: $1.50/mile each direction from South Lake Union

• Parts: Retail pricing for components supplied by us

• Sales Tax: Based on the location where work is performed

• Transit Fees: Parking, ferry fares, and mileage for parts runs

• Lodging: For projects 50+ miles from Seattle, if overnight accommodations are required and not provided by the client

If you have any questions about our rates or how they apply to your project, we’re happy to walk you through it. Clear communication is part of what makes a system truly shipshape.
