The time alone is more than $5.
Add in an hour of time and then gas...plus the cost of the blinds ...can't be done for $5

Why does everyone always assume their time is so valuable in dollars and cents when it is really not.

Do you really make $85 per hour hanging blinds? You have not figured out how to do it cheaper. You take time from an $85 per hour job to hand blinds?

Did you perhaps make a typo? $85/hour amounts to $176,800 per year ($85 * 40 hours per week = $3,400 * 52 weeks per year = $176,800).
The going rate for a handyman or someone to hang blinds is not $85/hour.

Your time may be worthless. Mine is not.

If your time is so valuable why do you have rent property? With your valuable time you still have time to clean toilets and mow yards?

I wholeheartedly agree with the posters above. I make in the same range as the first poster, and I'm very busy, so spending time fixing something like blinds can quickly get expensive in terms of lost revenue.
Also, as KatieKate said above, she pays a handyman to take care of these types of repairs. So, she definitely needs to include the cost of his time as part of the charge to the tenant.

I PAY a handyman. His time is billed to me. Home Depot can take an hour easy...between the drive and waiting for someone to cut the blinds.
Like I said...$25 is the actual cost to me for blinds.
