Apparently this is standard price for the install, sales taxes, labor, disposal fee, "code upgrades," etc. My next door neighbor paid the same amount last year.
Sucks to be a homeowner w/o construction skills in a blue state.
I half think people in the trades push for code upgrades to make everything cost more. And they seemed shocked that I would question their prices. Got a 10% discount FWIW.
Lucky here Pan has hose to cellar floor drain.
1st floor condo. Plumb a hose to an inconspicuous outside wall if accessible
I suppose in city limits or in really urbanized counties, there are restrictions on home improvements by owner- but that is the price of living in such locales. me, I live in a rural MO county where no permit is required except to build a new home. Never would live in any other situation.
happy wife happy life...
