It varies from around $10/hr to $125/hr, depending on location,
experience, quality of their coding and about 50 different things. You
have a choice of:
1) Cheap
2) Fast
3) Quality
Pick any one.
Generally fixing someone else's poor PHP code is more expensive than
doing it right the first time.
And BTW - very little of the PHP work I do is local. And I almost never
have to meet with customers face-to-face, even when they are local.
