Good to know
Where do these price ranges come from?
They are typical 2026 installed prices for Central Texas (Austin to San Antonio) based on common scopes. Real prices move with access, code upgrades, fixture choices, restoration and season, so treat them as a sanity check, not a quote.
My quote is above the range. Is the contractor ripping me off?
Not necessarily. Two-story access, tunneling, a gas line upsize or a premium fixture can justify it. Ask the contractor to itemize, then compare. If the scope still doesn't make sense, an independent second opinion settles it.
Why is a very low quote a warning?
Low bids often leave out the permit, restoration, code-required upgrades or the right material. Those come back as change orders once the wall or slab is open.
