are these quotes for door-hanging reasonable?
Not strictly a DIY question, so I hope this is OK. You guys will
surely know the answer...
My wife recently got quotes from three carpenters for hanging 6
internal doors plus a front door. One of the internal doors is a
cupboard door which will need cutting down a bit. Doors are pine
(internal) and acacia (external).
Quotes are £570, £576, and £690. All are for labour only; we'll supply
the ironmongery.
A bit steep, surely? Did they think my missus was a bit simple?
Or am I way out of date and these prices are what you'd expect to pay
nowadays? I was thinking more like £300 for, what, a day and a bit's
labour?
