Our thorough design process and comprehensive checklist ensure that all planned areas of the build are considered and costed, providing you with the most professional and accurate costing for your project. There are only two reasons your price would change:
You decide to make changes during the build, which will be documented with signed change orders before any work is done.
Unforeseen circumstances, such as encountering boulders in the ground where we are digging. Rest assured, we take pride in completing your project at the agreed-upon price.
