Looking to add a 20A 120V outlet and a 240V NEMA 6-20 outlet to the location marked by the red X. Purple Circle is the sub-panel that it will be coming from. Length of run (green) is about 25 ft.

How much should I expect to pay?

$1500. I could have you wired up on a Saturday for beer and tacos. I estimate 1500 maybe less 1100-1200. Depends if there's attic access or The electrician is going to run a rigid or pvc conduit.

Yeah this seems like a surface conduit job judging from the semi-finished sheetrock and other wiring.

2 hour service call at your local rates plus material. Probably less than $300 but that depends on your area.

He is in a very expensive area. I doubt he will pay less than $3000.

Honestly, super super easy job. Surface mount, run the wires. Then, if you're not comfortable installing breakers and making the connections, have an electrician come do that. Will cost you a whole lot less for them to come, make the connections, and certify it. You handle 90% of the labor yourself. Check code, I think you need a GFCI in your neck of the woods.

I just recently did this myself when I needed an outlet on one garage wall for a freezer. It was just a 120V outlet though, so I did all of it.
