Nor are all dedicated lines built to the same spec. If you want to derate the wire and use 10 ga. wire, that's obviously going to cost more than 14 ga. wire. The choice of receptacles also affects cost.
If you're interested in dedicated lines and you don't want to DIY, I'd suggest calling in an electrician or two for for an estimate. As with any contractor, have them explain exactly how they plan to do the work and what materials they would use.
how much have people had to pay to add a dedicated line to an existing house?The labor can be as big a cost factor as the materials, and the cost of labor hinges on a few factors, including the complexity of the project. For example: Does the wire have to be fished through walls? And as with all of the trades, not all electricians are created equal. The one I use is a real craftsman, but many will do the job as quickly and cheaply as possible.
