Re: cost to replace a transom

I can't do that kind of work for less than $60.00/hr. + materials and I sure don't think that I could do anything like that with my name on it that wouldn't tear up and sink with anything close to only 8+ hrs. of work. Did we miss a "0" here with this quote? --- JP

Re: cost to replace a transom

Guys thanks for the reply, but as it turns out I will be getting $2000.00 for the job. Boy what was I thinking!!! Shouldn't be that difficult of a job though.

Ya 2 grand would be with cheaper materials for sure. You could easily spend over that on just the materials if you wanted to.
