i gave him a quote at $500 to take out tub and put new one in but the old tub was a big cast iron tub that was a pain to get out,i had to take out a wall at end of tub ,then when the tub was out i noticed a probly with the 3 inch copper vent pipe had holes all through itso i fixed that all the way from the roof to the bottom floor with plumber flashing on roof the whole nine yards,then they wanted one of those modern day fixtures for the tap set in the tub so i had to do a bunch of plumbing to set it up for the new set of taps,i also installed 2 shutoffs under the tub,also had to rip out all old copper plumbing and replace with new abs pipe ,installed 3 sideboard tub inserts to go around the walls,framed a wall to close in the tub on the bottom cuz it had no sides then framed the back wall for the panel to go on and drywalled it all.primed and painted then caulked all around tub to finished. it took me 4 more days to finish the extras what do i charge? they bought all materials. nothing was signed it was just an agreement that i would do the tub for $500 anything else would be extra ,i just want something fair for the both of us and it seems like fair to them is crap for me,its my friends parents house
