Contractor estimates making head spin.

Hello ,

I ve acquired a property in central PA and am renovating it before renting out. I have bids from 3 contractors so far and am getting big variations between contractor quotes.

Wondering what the approximate costs are in Central PA region.

1) Roof replacement(including front and back porch roofs) is 22 square ( got quotes ranging from 7,000 to 13,000 $) - how much should I expect to pay

2) Flooring -  approx 1700 sq.ft of LVP plank flooring after removing carpet ( from 3600$(material separate)  to 7800$( material included)- 

how much should I expect to pay

 

3) The home is grounded to plumbing i think ( its constructed in 1960s).  Most electric sockets are 2 prongs. Some are 3 prongs. 

To change all 2 prongs to 3 prongs , I got quotes from $1170 to $ 3500) .

Would appreciate from average ballpark figures for these things. 

Thanks.

Ani.
