Is $1,500 to tile around a fireplace a fair price?

Project Details

I just received this quote to tile around my fireplace, and it seems outrageously high for labor only, especially since the area is already prepped. I'm wondering if this is a normal price or if I'm being taken advantage of. I am currently getting other quotes.

Quote Details

This quote is for labor only to tile approximately 30 square feet around a fireplace. The area is already prepared, with demolition complete, cement board installed, and the surface leveled. - Scope: Tiling around a fireplace - Area: Approximately 30 square feet - Materials: Homeowner to provide - Preparation: Area is demoed, cement board installed, and leveled - Tile Type: Black hexagon tile with a bullnose border
