Hidden costs before they become extras
Most quote problems are not in the lines you can see. They are in the work that is assumed, excluded, or described so vaguely it becomes an extra later.
These are the areas we see homeowners miss most often.
A missing item is not free. It normally comes back as a variation, delay, dispute, or uncomfortable conversation once the build is underway.
