You really need to give more information regarding your skills,
experience, the nature of the job, etc.

In the UK market, a contractor can cost from 25-75 pounds ($40-120) per
hour depending on any of the above. A particularly experienced person
may command more.

If a local firm is being asked to quote for something, I'm sure they
won't put a mountain of work into preparing the quote unless it's a huge
project - so you're only wasting half an hour of someone's time.
