Is $400 Too Much to Replace Ceiling Fan & Garbage Disposal? (JAX)

New-ish investor and happily plugging along with three props in JAX.  Just had someone quote me $400 plus materials to replace a sluggish ceiling fan and nonoperational garbage disposal.  Seemed a bit high to me.  What is a reasonable rate for (if I buy the 1/2 HP GD and ceiling fan and bring them to the unit) the work?  Just ballpark... not gospel.  I was thinking $200-250.  Please let me know your thoughts, I appreciate all feedback!

Also, whats wrong with the G/D? wont turn on?

Before you scrap it, double check that the breaker switch that's on it gets toggled. I replaced my own as a new homeowner, and didn't learn until the end of installation that a breaker was included on this piece of hardware - replaced the dang thing for no reason!!!

As far as my previous post for the labor stuff - have you considered DIY'ing these? I've found that the instruction manuals included with each fan is fairly straightforward - Just a thought.
