Cost of parts. Look at the prices for painting/stain. Big difference in costs. I would pay extra for a product/service that uses a better quality product that lasts longer so I will save money in the future b not having to perform this function as often.
It’s not always the current price to compare but over the length of time this work will provide you
I agree that quality is important and that there are always variables to consider. But, posting that you paid a reasonable price is not very helpful to someone who is trying to select a contractor.
