labor costs for fiberglass work

[dmarkvid2]

I recently placed a new stringer and 3 cross ribs in my boat. I was going to glass it myself, but after talking to a guy who does fiberglass repair on boats he said he'd glass it for me. He wants to replace the other stringer. So,,,, if he replaced the other stringer, and then fiberglassed everything, ( 2 stringers, and 3 cross ribs)what could i expect to pay? I dont have a clue whats a fair and resonable price. I would be installing the deck myself. The stringers are about 9' long. A ball park figure would be great.

Re: labor costs for fiberglass work

if all the stringers are cut and the hull is cleaned and prepped, you could lay that up in a day. I would say prolly $500 labor + materials would be about right for an independant. a yard would prolly charge you 6 hours x $90-120

Scrumbler, I haven't heard back on a price yet, but Thank you. At least now I know what to kind of expect. Thats not a bad charge.
