What is a Man Hour?

A man hour is the total amount of work done by one person in one hour.

For example:

  • If a job would take 1 person 6 hours to complete, that means you need 6 man hours of work.
  • We could send 3 workers, and they would finish in 2 hours (3 people × 2 hours = 6 man hours).
  • Or, we could send 4 workers, and they would finish in 1.5 hours (4 people × 1.5 hours = 6 man hours).

No matter how many people are on the team, the total man-hours stays the same—you’re paying for the total amount of work, not the number of people.  (We have a 2-hour minimum, except for poison ivy which is a one-hour minimum)

Poison Ivy and Poison Oak Removal $125.00 per man hour.  (If either are found during the weeding, we will stop the weeding and discuss with the client how to proceed next.)
