Consultation & Design Fee

Virtual consultations are free. Every on-site consultation is paid. This isn’t a sales call — it’s the working session where we assess your property, take field measurements, and scope the job so the numbers we give you are real.


Residential On-Site Assessment — $199

For repairs, single-scope work, and standard residential estimates. Covers the site visit, measurements, and your written estimate. Applied as a credit toward your project.

Commercial Design & Consultation — From $750

For multi-trade, commercial, and design-driven projects. The $750 books your consultation and covers the full site assessment, field measurements, design direction, and coordination of any specialty trades. Larger or multi-building projects may require additional design time — if so, we quote it and get your approval before any work begins. Applied as a credit toward your project.

Both fees are credited in full toward your project once you move forward. It’s not an added cost — it’s your first payment.


Why we charge it

A serious estimate on a real project takes real work — measurements, condition assessment, and often coordinating multiple trades before a single number reaches you. The fee keeps our pricing accurate and our schedule reserved for clients who are ready to build.
