Hello!
I needed to have tile removed around drain in older shower and redone to deal with a leak created by a sulphuric acid product a contractor used earlier that splashed on the tile, destroying the mortar and tile surfaces. It was a 2-inch area around the drain that was damaged. Let's not talk about the prior contractor...a discussion for another day.
I live in a small rural town in Idaho. When he did the oral estimate, he said he was not sure how long it would take so he would do the day rate, which was 250. Well, he started the job at 11 am and ended it at 2:30. 3.5 hours of work=250. This guy only does tile; and yes, he is licensed/bonded.
I am fine with it if that's the norm and is reasonable. Is it?
