Fair price for rust repair?

I was quoted a worst case scenario rust removal of the door sill area on the roof for 800 and about 600 if it's not that bad underneath. Does this sound alright i thought it was a little high. Pics turned out upside down sorry.

Re: Fair price for rust repair?

Does the price include paint or just getting all the rust out? From the second pic you can tell someone already tried and failed to fix it, so you'll probably find a lot more underneath. I think the price might be a little high, although it's a real pita so I can see why $800.
Good luck

It tough to tell without seeing it in person but I think that's a fair price.
