If you can fix it, great! If you can't, you pay for expertise, and dealerships are generally more expensive. We had to have the compressor replaced in a 2007 Ford Freestyle. It came to $1200. Luckily we had a bumper-to-bumper warranty, and our deductive was $100. That was our final cost.

1992 Jeep ZJ and 1978 Coleman Concord Pop-Up for remote camping

Flushing out the entire system might use $30 worth of chemicals. $1800 sounds like the "I don't really want to do this job but if I do, they will have to pay for it" price. Shop around and I think you will find others that may be interested in doing your work.
I concur !

I just had my F-350 diesel A/C done at an independent shop using a Ford factory kit he got from local dealer here in NC. $843.00. Those big city labor costs haven't got here yet and they don't use flat rate price either. $65 per hour for the actual time to do the job.
