Transparent pricing
What projects actually cost
Most contractors will not put a number on a webpage. We think that wastes everyone's time, because you cannot plan a project you cannot price. Below are honest ranges for every service we offer. Your written proposal replaces them with fixed numbers for your actual scope.
How we price
How our pricing works
- Ranges, not single numbers: A point estimate for construction implies a precision that does not exist before anyone has seen your site.
- Allowances stated plainly: Where a selection is not yet made, the allowance is written into the scope and reconciled up or down against actual cost.
- Written change orders: Nothing is added to your invoice without a change order you approved in writing before that work started.
- Draw schedule tied to work: Payments follow completed milestones. California caps the down payment at the lesser of $1,000 or 10 percent of the contract.
- No charge for the estimate: The walkthrough and the written proposal cost nothing and carry no obligation.
