Pricing: What Is It Going to Co$t?
Joe & The Levco Team tackles some of the most asked pricing questions regarding remodeling.
“It’s unwise to pay too much, but it’s worse to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money — that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do.”
—John Ruskin – a 19th century English poet
3 Common Factors That Impact Pricing
While there are many determining factors that play into pricing, these are the three most common factors that will influence the cost of your project.
Quality
Like with any product, cost and quality have a direct relationship. The higher quality material starts at a higher price, while lower quality material starts at a lower price.
Customization
Project customizations play key role in the pricing of your project. If your project is calling for a higher level of customization, the cost for that type of craftsmanship will be reflected in the overall price.
General Conditions
General Conditions are the unique elements and constraints that can alter the total cost of a project. For instance, a project situated in a bustling urban neighborhood may have more stringent parking, noise, and waste disposal regulations, which could require additional compliance measures resulting in increased costs.
Warranty
The quality of the product’s warranty and contractor’s warranty provides assurance that the contractor will back their work in the future. A great warranty from both the product and the contractor will equate to a more expensive project.makes when you pay attention to the details.
