Also, what about installing a ceiling fan, light fixtures, and other electrical tasks. Replacing a roof on equal sized houses, or power washing a house, or painting the exterior of a courtyard villa. Most people want to know what these things cost, not that you got a "reasonable" price. That doesn't provide any useful information at all.

What is Mike Scott plumbing going to swap a push/pull valve for? Another push/pull valve, or a much better valve that costs 3x as much. I would never use these type of valves and when I have to replace them I will use better quality valves. Water heaters come in different quality, sizes, and types, go online and see how many different types of water heaters you can get.
Shingles, same thing, quality quality quality vs cheap cr@p that you have to replace much sooner.
Ceiling fans? Size? Speed? Do you need extra support because the fan is heavy? How many blades? Go to Lowe’s and you will see a 100 ceiling fans for sale ranging in price from $40 to $500 or higher. Light fixtures vary in size and might require more labor to install some over others.
Everything matters, there is no size/price hat fits all
