It is a broad question. What your services are worth is really up to you, but, for comparison, see attached....

This report lists hourly wage for contractors. There are other charges that typically apply as well, fringe package hourly, communications package daily (phone/computer), travel expenses (vehicle rate and/or mileage) daily and per diems when agreed....or an inclusive set amount +/- mileage.

I am not sure of the wages in your area but another factor that comes into play is whether or not you are utilizing your own equipment/shop facilities to do all testing or if you're simply are called to a facility to conduct visual inspections prior to other nondestructive and destructive testing which will be done else-ware.

Personally, my standard rate for VT, PT or MT is $100/hour for local jobs. If I were to have to travel and stay multiple days it's $100/hour + the standard federal rates for food and lodging + federal standard rates for mileage to and from the facility. In these cases, I do not charge for mileage from hotels and around town travel while traveling to work each day.
