Frame lines, Frame A
| Frame line row, Frame A | Reading | Frame A note |
|---|---|---|
| Average repair visit | $270 | average line as printed |
| Most visits | $100-$400 | band line as printed |
| Labor | $45-$200 per hour | labor line as printed |
| Parts span | $1-$100 | span across its part lines |
| Repair average, repair-vs-replace page | $210 | frame-internal line as printed |
| New faucet installation, same page | $100-$575 | frame-internal line as printed |
Each reading is one frame line, stated as printed in Frame A. The labor lines stand apart inside each frame: plumber labor at $45-$200 per hour in Frame A against plumber labor at $45-$200 per hour in Frame B -- the same printed band in two published frames, never one merged labor line. The repair-vs-replace lines stand inside Frame A alone: a repair average at $210 against new faucet installation at $100-$575 on the Angi repair-vs-replace page, a frame-internal comparison; Frame B prints no repair-vs-replace line as printed, and the absence stands as printed, never filled from the other frame. The new-faucet installation job itself stands on the standing kitchen faucet installation cluster, named apart.
Frame lines, Frame B

| Labor | $45-$200 per hour | labor line as printed |
| Parts span | $1-$100 | parts line as printed |
Frame B holds no repair-vs-replace line as printed; its frame lines are the average, the band, the span, the labor line, and the parts line, each as printed.

Line against line, frame against frame
A labor line at $45-$200 per hour against a parts span at $1-$100 and a visit average at $270 -- one visit, priced apart by frame line. The frames price the same visit apart -- an average at $270 with most visits at $100-$400 in Frame A against an average at $270 with most visits at $200-$330 and a wider full span at $60-$500 in Frame B, a kitchen sink row at $100-$250 against a kitchen reading around $250 as a point, a repair average at $210 on the Angi repair-vs-replace page against $270 on its repair page -- a frame difference, never averaged, never blended.
The neighbours named apart
Named apart, never a row here: kitchen faucet installation, the new-faucet job on the standing installation cluster; hose-bibb replacement, the outdoor faucet replacement job; shower-valve replacement, the valve replacement job; and the bathroom plumbing-fixture guide, fixture jobs priced apart -- this cluster prices the repair visit alone.
