Overpaying for contractor project?
I've just received a quote to fix a 4x8 area of a kitchen floor following a pipe leak in the subfloor. The labor being performed is:
Remove damaged wood
Remove any damaged floor joists
Remove ceramic from 4x8 area to repair damaged floors
Instal ceramic to match existing tile as close as possible
Remove sink cabinet if necessary
Instal grout to match existing grout
Approx 18ft of ceramic tile will be replaced.
Materials amount to $855 and Labor amounts to $2125. The work will be completed in one day. If by "one day" this means 8 hrs or so, this means that i'm paying ~$265/hr. Doesn't this seem overpriced?
