Home Advice: Price for custom window screens?

[Dante84]

I purchased a flipped house 2 years ago down here in Austin, and outside of a few wonky things, it's been a great first home.

One of the things the flippers failed to do was provide screens with the new windows, something that I'm finally getting around to adding.

Just got my first quote for getting 24 window screens created and installed, and the price came back at just under $600. I thought it would be higher due to the number of windows, but maybe they are just dirt-ass cheap to make.

Is that a fair price?

Same company quoted me $650/each for 3 storm door additions, which feels a bit high. I don't want to drop $1,950 for goddamned storm doors.

well you should IMO

i constantly think about how to make more money with the little time that i have

if i can get something done cheaper by hiring it out...to free my time up to do something more important...its a no brainer and simple math

If my time ever becomes less valuable than a mobile screen guy's, i am doing something wrong

I havent had an hourly job since i was in my 20's...I just value my time more and more as i get older
