Please reach out about any custom work you’re hoping to have done. I’ll respond via email with any follow-up questions or to find a time to meet to chat about your project.
I’ll then generate a bid, which is an estimate of the cost. I calculate my costs combining the estimated cost of materials with an estimated number of labor hours to construct. Total cost at the end of a project will be in the range of the estimate, but may be lower or higher, based on changing material costs or more/less labor required.
I usually ask that a client pay 50% of the estimate up front and 50% due when the project is completed.
