Get multiple quotes, and then get references which you follow up. If the job's done well and you can afford it, the price is fair!

price seems ok but always get more quotes and check the standard of other jobs
One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important.

The ONLY way to check the accuracy or fairness of any price is to get comparative prices. This is why I place so much emphasis on obtaining at least 3 quotes for every job.
