The price of a new 10,000 gallon corrugated steel tank installed in HPP is between $8200- $9000 (depending on who you go with). Our insurance company paid the complete replacement cost from the lowest bidders estimate (minus deductible). But they also withhold 20% for something called "recoverable depreciation". Proof of completion of the new tank is needed to release that money. Also the company with the lowest bid (Waterworks) wants full payment in advance before they begin. I've learned from living here that you never pay in full for work that hasn't started. So we're still looking.
We just got quotes a few months ago and Island Catchment was cheaper than Waterworks (and not by just a little bit). But they raised the minimum wage since then so maybe they had to increase their prices.
You might want to get a quote from The Catchment Dude. He does full tank installs. He also told me that Island Catchment manufactures the tanks and liners that all the companies use, so regardless of who you go with, you're getting their products. They import the steel panels and plastic and have a shop in Shipman where they bend the panels and weld the plastic sheets into the catchment shape.
