Is $11,000 to convert a tub to a shower with basic materials a fair price?

Project Details

I received this quote for a tub to shower conversion, and it was significantly higher than what I had anticipated based on my research. I found the price to be insane, especially considering it was for the cheapest options available. I did not proceed with this quote.
