Define the scope before requesting bids
- Describe the existing condition, the desired result and the exact location of the work.
- Provide measurements, quantities and photos so bidders can price the same scope.
- Ask for separate allowances for preparation, removal, installation and finish repairs where they apply.
- Confirm products, permits, site access, disposal, schedule and exclusions in writing.
Compare the proposals
Match the units and inclusions shown in the price tables. Product-only, labor-only and complete-project figures cover different work. For a Portland Metro proposal, have a local professional confirm the property conditions and the current price.
Material cost
These are purchase-only allowances. Confirm product specifications, quantities and delivery. Do not add them to a project total that already includes materials.
| Product or reference | Published benchmark | Basis and scope |
|---|---|---|
| Toilet installation cost — Two-piece toilet | $100 – $500 | unit only |
| Toilet installation cost — One-piece toilet | $200 – $900 | unit only |
| Toilet installation cost — Smart toilet | $600 – $2,000 | unit only |
