ConstructionProposal....Fair Price?!

[Nik S.]

Hi everyone!

At one of my APT buildings, I have a 2nd story catwalk that needs replaced. The previous owner used NON-Pressure treated plywood and laid some regular carpet down on top of it. Problem is the carpet above created excess moisture with the below plywood which within one year caused the wood to be warped. In some parts the catwalk had completely rotted away due to excess moisture.

I got a proposal to replace the existing catwalk with pressure treated plywood & to lay down indoor / outdoor carpet above the pressure treated plywood.

I am supplying ALL the materials but he has given me a proposal to do the work @ $2700.00

The materials are estimated at around $1500 give or take.

Take a look at the catwalk (it's fairly large_105 ft by 5ft wide)

Let me know your initial thoughts on the job/price. Suggestions WELCOME!!
