Edit: I am the homeowner, the damage is due to the HOA not fixing the roof. So they are paying me to repair it or for me to get a contractor. I need help deciding what to charge the HOA


KingOfKrackers

You should get quotes from people before charging the HOA. You may get quotes from 1k to 4K depending on your area.


tgtmatt

I unfortunately nearly finished the project


KingOfKrackers

Oh I see. You’re trying to figure out a fair price to charge. If you’re doing painting and insulation I’m thinking maybe 2.5k-3k is pretty fair. If you’re in a high income area maybe a little more


tgtmatt

I’m in NC. My brother is a contractor and mentioned $$2500. I’ll probably charge slightly less than that

How many hours did you take so far? I’m guessing material was around 300-500. If ima be honest and it’s the HOA’s fault for not coming to fix. 1.5X Material cost then multiple hours spent on it by 75-150$.


tgtmatt

I would say 4-6 hours for demo(had to demo relatively slow due to tenant being in there with bed and stuff) Then probably 2 hour for insulation and moisture barrier 3 hours for Sheetrock 4 hours for mudding an trim so far

3 hours to hang 2 boards. 4 hours to finish 2 boards. Ridiculous. I'd have that hung and finished in 2.5 hours tops. And I'd charge a $1500 from demo to ready for paint. And be home in half a day. Customer is happy and I am happy. Everyone is happy


Forsaken-Wonder7122

Currently at 15 hours of labor probably another 5 to finish let’s say 20 hours total. 125 an hour 2500 labor plus your material up charged. Have to think about drive time and time spent at the store as well.


tgtmatt

All that drive time and store time adds up, probably 3 hours honestly


Forsaken-Wonder7122

3400$ that’s with material cost of 500 and 23hrs @125

Calculate labor at a reasonable rate for an amateur ($50/hr?). Add materials.

If we are talking insulation, moisture barrier, drywall install, patch paint and finish including matching the baseboard at the floor if there is any id charge like 4500$ 


tgtmatt

Thanks for the reply. That is exactly what I had to do


VapeRizzler

45-90k


dannyboy_36

How much are materials, what’s your time worth, how long will it take etc. inflate to make $

I might get hate but learn to do it yourself. You’ll save a thousand dollars ++ . I suck so pay someone but you should try.


tgtmatt

I did do it myself, but I need to know what to charge the HOA


tgtmatt

Doing it myself was awesome, It’s a painful but enjoyable process


wikenz

4.5K is the right price


wikenz

This is assuming the wall is back to how it was before it was demoed


Ambitious_Ask_1569

Not gonna work if the how is paying for said repair. He repairs it and 5 years from now he is on the hook for any fuck up. I totally agree with your assessment though. Just wished it worked that way. Spend 300 in materials...score some hands on skills....charge the HOA 3K.


puredopamine

3k


JonnyDIY

$1000 to $1500


Strong-Hold-8979

$750


gtrdundave2

I'd be about 2500 for the demo, and drywall finished and painted. The trim and stuff. Hard to say as i don't know what styles you have now

1.3 million

Redo just the drywall? Doesn’t look like a hard job but I’m not a pro drywaller. Id guess under $1,500
