Yep, that sounds like real fair pricing to me. It's tuff to swallow the big bill, but a pleasing final product eases the pain. I'm gettin' ready to start pumpin' up the home EQ line pretty darn soon.
My guy has already intimated that he is already quoting jobs $5/hr higher because of fuel costs. We spent some focus time on that subject. He readily agrees that it is a big job for him and I pay my bills "right now". Until further notice of higher gas gouging, he is going to rescind the hike for me.

(edit) btw, I flew into Pitts. for the first time on biz last fall. I worked my way up to Erie and back. It was during the Fall colors...absolutely, positively gorgeous country!!! Not so pretty up north when it flattened out, but I was really charmed by the mountains at Pittsburgh and near north.
