Install attic access stairway – access door there but will require some lengthening…also some plywood couple 4×8 sheets laid for storage.
If you are a contractor or a handyman, how much would this job cost in your area?
Low Price: $240
Consensus Price: $425
High Price: $425

Assuming you have bought a folding staircase which can be installed on the ceiling in the garage or on the ceiling of a hallway I would estimate that it would take a full day to install it. At $50-hr it comes to $400 for the labor and about $25 for additional materials.
It should take no more than 4 hours to do this. I charge $60-hr or $240.
Maybe 4 hours just to install the stairs but it sounds like the first guy is customizing the size . $425 sounds about right.
Assuming the ceiling un the garage already has the access cut out then an hour or less and cost would be $100.
Can you do mine? It’s an exact replacement!
what warrenty does your work covers and is there hidden charges
I’ve done 3 this year. 2 were removal of old stairs and install new- I charged $220
And one was just an install, no removal for $175
Not easy for one man to do, but doable.

$250 is a fair price, I’m asking.
Are you still doing pull down stair kits for attics? Thanks

You guys are all wayyyy too cheap. What if you need to cut joists and move electrical wires in your way?
