Depends on what they're working in. A certified plumber, electrician, furnace/gas, HVAC specialist, all command market rates set by tgeir associations. Tilelayers, bricklayers, carpenters and cabinet makers also have set rates. There isn't much left that's unregulated, perhaps framing, drywall/plaster, hardwood/vinyl flooring, painting and landscaping.
