    So ask the tinsmith. I don't understand your question at all. Each tinsmith applies his own prices, usually proportional to the quality of the service, while the prices of materials also do not depend on forum users. Your question cannot be answered unequivocally here.

    I want an approximate cost. PLN 1000 or 2000 or maybe 500. I want to know and be aware of whom to thank in case of need.
    If you can't help me, don't contribute to the discussion.

    But as you can see, the discussion did not arise here, because as I wrote, it is a fluid matter. Find out how much the elements cost in the warehouse, how much the tinsmith charges for the element, compare, etc... Don't you want to? Yeah, best to sit down at the computer and ask. It seems to me that this question is out of place here (read - it is impossible to answer).

    what do you mean? Yeah, it's best to sit at the computer and unproductively waste time for yourself and others.

    You know your question is inaccurate, as for the price of the elements, retailers as for the price of labor are normally PLN 150-200 an element, I do not know what you mean by the floor, whether it is to replace the entire slab or to piece together what you have, I do not know if this element is available. Pieces are usually billed according to time plus material, and there are your expectations, i.e. for the overlay or the exact making of elements, including stamping, which of course is associated with much higher costs than I specified.

    is severely affected. I think the art will be too much. frets to be replaced. I don't really care about getting the parts right.

    1000 is the minimum minimorum. If someone did it to me for so much (I'm talking about the labor itself), I wouldn't even discuss it. I think that 2000 is also a reasonable price for replacing the thresholds + floor. Remember that it has to fit perfectly because the doors are supposed to form one surface with the thresholds, and at the same time - open and close without any problems. For 500, you'd rather forget that someone will do it for you. And more parts...
    Well, unless you could get it in one piece ... But, after all, for 500 zlotys, I definitely doubt that anyone would take it ...

    hello, I did something like this recently but in Opel Vectra A, parts with rear fenders repairs cost PLN 600, labor is PLN 1500, if you add elements with subthresholds, it is better to cut and replace the whole elements, and here I would advise you to look at what the tinsmith is working on (equipment), not to leave 4 tracks :) , it is impossible to answer how many parts and how much labor without seeing the car, for such a repair you need to dismantle the doors, front fenders, throw the village out of the middle and then you will see what the floor plate and reinforcements look like, so this is a bit of divination, finally fitting the elements and so that the gap around the door was about 3-4mm and the sheets formed body lines, deviations should not exceed 0.5mm, if you realize the scope of work is 2-2.5 thousand, this is the cost of this undertaking but? you need to see the car to assess what needs to be replaced and don't be fooled into covering the holes with overlays, it looks nasty and is a corrosion incubator, it remains to protect the mentioned elements against corrosion,.
    For repairs for PLN 500, I personally take for the replacement of the fender + the price of the NEW fender, while the suggestion that the exact extra money does not depend on something I don't understand?? but you may not understand everything :) , Good luck

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the approximate costs associated with replacing thresholds and floors in a Ford Ka. Participants express that the costs can vary significantly based on the quality of materials and labor. Estimates suggest that labor costs alone could range from PLN 1500 to 2000, with additional material costs potentially raising the total to around PLN 2000 or more. The complexity of the job, which may require dismantling parts of the car for proper fitting, is emphasized, indicating that a precise assessment of the vehicle is necessary for an accurate quote. Some participants suggest that a price as low as PLN 500 is unrealistic for such extensive repairs.
