Fraternity Kitchen Help! personalfinance


We have a kitchen in our fraternity that has been closed for a year. The school has always been gradually trying to put down fraternities by taking away amenities that have always been present from free laundry machines to raising special administration costs specific to us.


We have had our kitchen closed for a year and we're planning on reopening it at the start of next year. We have a kitchen surplus from previous years of about 15K which is leftovers from not spending our entire budget, which can be put to use for repairs.


The issue is that our school just dropped the fact that in order to re-open our kitchen, the estimate is about 30K for equipment replacement and work needed to be done in order to meet County health regulations. Our kitchen features the following equipment: -Walk-in freezer -Walk-in refrigerator -industrial grill and stove top -deep fryer -Hobart industrial dishwasher All of these you'd expect to see in a restaurant. Sorry for the vagueness. Is there anyway to go around getting our own quote/estimate to verify we're not getting overcharged? All of our equipment was working before our kitchen was closed for a year so that's why I'm skeptical of why the pricing is so high considering non of the equipment are likely to break without being used. I understand the equipment is all very expensive however I'd like to know if it's possible to be able to get a quote from a third party source rather than the school's own personnel
