Custom storm door and painting quote?

It might be high, but let me gently suggest that you have zero leverage in the market. Material prices have neve been higher and labor is in short supply. Houses are selling in record time for record premiums. Renovation and repair providers are just as high in demand. You have a request that is neither quick or easy. People that are good at what you need are working for flippers and making steady money.

Thanks for the reply, and yeah, I know, worst time to buy a car or screw with house stuff, but this has gotta be done, our old storm door is literally falling apart and you can see the shape of the door/porch. We want to do it right, we don't want just anybody's Cousin Eddie to come over and slap a coat of paint over everything and then roar off in his RV, so I figure we'll end up paying a premium, didn't know it would be that much, though.
