1. Be specific on what you would like us to take off, i.e. rough lumber, siding, roofing, or interior trim. It speeds up the process if we already know.
2. If the print is vague, preliminary, or incomplete, include how you would like it to be built. Otherwise we will have to make some assumptions.
3. Make sure any due dates are conveyed to the estimator, salesman or staff that we have the project done in adequate time.
4. Qualify the print with your salesperson or estimator. That gives us the chance to understand your wants and needs for the project.
5. Let us know if you prefer a specific engineered wood or truss company, so we have your preferred layouts ready.
6. Let us know up front if you wish to make changes to the print's design, i.e. siding, wall, floor, or roof sheathing.
7. We have a pre-qualifying guideline available to assist you. It provides a list of the information we need to make your estimate go smoother. It can be filled out by you or us during the qualification process.
