[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I asked a quote from a small contractor to install two exhaust bathroom fans in my attached rowhouse. They wanted to charge me 100+ by the hour. I asked "give me a fixed amount". The came back with a quote of... $4,500.[/quote] Not in your area - builder here - just did this for a client plus re-sheetrocked one of the ceilings and painted them both for 3400.00. I thought I priced it too low...sometimes pricing works both ways - some you win and some you lose...[/quote] I then asked for a quote from another small contractor who did it for $300 and the fans have been working great.[/quote] I can guarantee that they did not vent through the roof for that price, and you will have to redo it before you move. Not legal to vent through the attic. BTDT.[/quote] Actually the fans do vent thru the roof -- I was aware venting to attic is not ok. [/quote]
