    Backsplash per ft install cost
    What should we expect to pay per sq ft for labor installing a ceramic backsplash I provide the materials? I live in the Northern Virginia area just outside DC. Total area is just under 20 sq ft. I've got a quote of $350 for the labor. Nothing special about the layout.

    If you are doing tiles get 3 more bids, all will be lower than your first guy. Unless you are really in a remote area requiring a long travel this is out of line for 20 s/f
