Posting for a friend. He needs his slide out awnings redone. Local RV mechanic/repair guy quoted him $750 for 3 slides 1 big and 2 smalls. Is this a reasonable price?

Thanks in advance

That's not bad, especially up here. I don't know how different they are than the roll out awnings, but lots of videos on youtube as far as how to replace the materials and wind the clock springs.

For Parts and Labor that sounds legit!

I did mine took a couple hours like $75 for the material. If yoiu count your own wages at 100/hr that would be 275 each so 750 sounds reasonable if you dont want to do it yourself. Anything longer than 8' and you need a second body to help feed the awning into the rail and roll.

I did the awning on my weekend warrior, was fairly easy. The awning material itself was $200 so if they are getting all 3 for that with labor i would jump on it.

Way too easy to pay somebody... (unless you're a baller)
