Labor chargers alone are going to be higher than that in Seattle. Just to have someone come out on a call is going to be 150-200. If it is an independent electrician who owns their own business, maybe 100-150/hr, if they are part of a larger company, I'd expect even more than that.
Honestly I wouldn't expect to pay less than $1000 for the job w/o any markups.

Handy man prices around here are $65 to $100/hr, and there is a huge wait list for the good ones.
I've gotten multiple quotes on running the 240v line, the labor breakdown was always over $400 alone. Just having someone show up to do a job is going to be almost $200 before any work is done.
When I got quotes from unlicensed people, those came in around $1000 even.

in bayarea subreddits there are multiple posts talking about EV charger vs welder outlet and how it drops price from 2000 to 500 or so (depends on complexity).
another thing, which is good long term is to a find a local electrician (plumber, etc) who doesn't charge service calls and have reasonable pricing.
no idea about handyman pricing. never used any. for electrical/water/roofing i prefer somebody who is licensed/insured/bonded/etc
running to another room will be done usually (at least in usa) through attic or crawlspace. i got it done a few months ago to have dedicated 20A circuit (for my rack) in my work room. cost was around 300-400 as well
