Pricing:

  • Almost all pricing is done on a lump sum basis. This is to ensure that every
    client has a clear understanding of the total cost of the project.  We will
    provide a bid price before any work begins based on the scope of work
    that you wish to have us perform. Any changes that are made after work
    begins will be negotiated at the time of the change, if required. We feel
    this policy ensures satisfaction at the end of the project since our firm and
    our clients both fully understand the cost of the work being performed.

  • For most jobs we will include a permitted set of plans, and stamped
    engineering calculations as required by the jurisdiction. Due to the many
    differing requirements of jurisdictions, our firm will provide one full size
    set of plans and three sets of engineering calculations. If additional sets of
    plans are required, there will be additional charges based on the cost of
    printing.

  • An initial meeting to provide scope and breadth of the work and a fee
    proposal from our firm are of course at no charge to the client.

  • A retainer is required to begin work. This retainer in most cases will be
    10% of the total cost of the contract.

  • In most cases, the total cost of the contract must be paid at the time of
    delivery of final plans and engineering.

  • A contract will be prepared at the beginning of the project to layout all
    aspects of what is expected of our firm, including completion dates, as
    well as what is expected of the client. This is to ensure that there are no
    miscommunication between our firm and the client.
