I have the opportunity to bid on installation of crown molding, trim and installation of interior doors for over 50 apartment units (1-2 bedrooms, same layout otherwise). All materials are supplied, strictly a labor quote. All crown molding has corner blocks and standard trim package on entry doors. Closet doors are by-pass and standard baseboard. I would do this without any additional labor.
I've seen prices of $1.75 linear foot for installation of molding/baseboard. Units are approximately 107 linear ft = $187.25. Right now I'm assuming same cost for trim. I was figuring $50 for installation of bypass doors and $75 for interior doors including trim. Two of each in a typical apt configuration. So, total labor costs are $624.50 per unit.
Are these fair prices? I've just recently gone out on my own after working in the industry for someone else for 20+ years, so I'm not current on the latest rates and don't want to be the low/high bidder.
