Coil leaks - needs replacing - Labor Cost?

[scsim]

My coils are leaking and need replacing. Luckily, they are under warranty. However, labor is not.

Please read the rules, no pricing allowed, please edit out the price, Thank you.

What may be a reasonable labor price in one area, may be very high, or very low in another.

There are a few other things not covered by the warranty also. Possibly shipping, filter drier(s), solder materials, fittings (copper/pvc), refrigerant and equipment to perform the work come to mine.

For ten thousand dollars I could have a tech there this weekend to do it, of course payment must be made in advance.

I might even tag along as a much needed vacation.

Sould have bought a good home owners warranty and it would be all covered.

If you're thinking paying them $15/hr or something, then it isn't going to happen. Specifically to a dollar amount hard to tell. But for 2 coils or 1, at least a few bills. No matter what part of the country. You have to figure them spending at least half a day, depending on how and where they are located. 1 or 2 guys and the owner has to make some money, pay for the $4 gas to get there, plus miscellaneous materials, put insurance on his truck and his company, as well as health insurance for employees, retirement, etc... Uncle Sam also likes to make a little money as well as any state or sales taxes applicable to your area. Couple that with the rising cost of refrigerant and hopefully you get the idea.
