Is $3,300 to upgrade main water line to boiler a fair price?
Project Details
This proposal came from a master plumber. I also received two other quotes: one from an HVAC tech guy for $1500 and another for $1200.
Quote Details
This quote is to upgrade and replace old copper pipes from the main water line to the boiler room, including fittings. The work involves approximately 35-40 feet of pipe. - Pipe Material: Mix of PEX and copper - Scope: Starting from the water meter located inside in the basement, running one straight pipe from the ceiling framing into the boiler room.
