How the fixed price works
On the phone we give a rough range. Then we come out, measure, look at the walls and ceilings and check what is behind them where we can. You get a written estimate with the scope, the price, the schedule and the warranty terms. If you don't change the scope, the price doesn't change.
Questions about prices
Why is there a minimum?
Every job needs a trip, material pickup, floor protection, setup and cleanup. Below the minimum those costs are bigger than the work itself.
Is the price on this page final?
No. These are starting prices. After a free on-site measure you get a fixed written price for your job. It changes only if you change the scope.
