It's just been kinda confusing understanding the estimates I was being given were only for labor, which initially I didn't understand. I was anticipating getting a range of pricing based on what-all would need to be replaced regarding parts along with labor, but wasn't getting any of that. All the labor rates pretty much were the same.
I tried looking online for the parts, but not knowing if I was looking at the exact right thing (and also knowing there are various grades of pads available) wasn't helping.
I have been, in my best ferrety-fashion, jumping around and overthinking, in the interest of doing due diligence, while ultimately ending up back where I started.
The estimate I got originally, which was for everything, seemed high, so I started hunting around to ferret out the best price (best information) and so I 100% appreciate everyone's input. Y'all really are great!
I would really love to be able to learn to do these sorts of things myself, as I know it's not "magic", just know-how and diligence, as Rob demonstrated above, but at this point, not a practical option for me. I have great admiration for those sorts of hands-on, can-do sorts!
So, again, mahalo all!
On to bigger volcanic things...so it seems.
