Dumb / lame question here for Boat Doctor or anyone who hires out to work on boats.
How much do you charge to remove a prop? Do you charge different for a tapered shaft house boat vs taking one off of a merccruiser lower unit?
Does the cost include re installation of the prop once the prop is fixed or refinished?

Maybe an hour tapered shafting = use the correct puller
Maybe a day or two splined (M/C,yamaha,etc)= if they were greased at installation they slide off.If they were neglected they are cut off(additional charge for SS props),Grind some slots, pop the prop off, cut away the rubber hub, grind off the inner sleeve.How Much?
By the hour plus O/A gas,installation of your new prop included.
