I assume you mean 50 linear feet.

Is it to be stained in the shop or on the wall? Or is it pre
stained.

I pay two dollars a linear foot plus five dollars a mitre (ie $10 per
corner). But your job is much too small to price that way.

Figure a decent wage is $300 a day for an experienced finisher.
Probably a day .. plus his time looking at the job. More if he is
finishing it in the shop and then transporting it. .

If you pay less than $300, you're getting either a bargain or a hack.

thanks Ken for the feed back
