Waterproofing 1 wall of a town home basement (end of group)?

I do not know my homes exact size but a similar house i researched on line says

"Lot Size: 1,600 Sq. Ft. "

I will probably re-post with the exact numbers. I have plans on using a company called B-dry ( after bringing a few crews out to estimate) for one wall with pump and well, a drain linked to an outer door way ( that leaks ) and all the trimmings a normal waterproofing job costs its going to be 3700 ( ish) does this price seem to be reasonable for 1 wall ( the only one that leaks because i am an end of group) i know it would be cheaper to do it myself but lets say for reasons i wont say here that's not a possibility.

Update:

basically yea dig the trench, the piping ( yea i dont know the proper terms ) run it to a pit/pump and link it to an outer drain.

    Exactly what are they going to do ? Sounds like they are going to dig out the soil to expose the wall then water proof it and add a sump in a well and only guessing here they will likely install a french drain. I would say that is a good price for all that.
