What changes a repair price

  • Labor market, access, permits, disposal, and scheduling.
  • Material grade, system size, finish matching, and warranty.
  • Concealed damage discovered after opening an assembly.
  • Engineering, testing, temporary protection, or code-related work.

A better comparison method

Give contractors the same written scope and ask each to list assumptions, allowances, exclusions, and optional work. Do not compare only the bottom-line number.
