Pricing & Bidding
Q: How do you handle pricing? Will there be surprise fees?

Q: Do you charge for estimates?
A: For commercial builds, industrial upfits, and major service upgrades, we provide detailed technical consultations and line-item RFP bidding. For diagnostic troubleshooting and specialized service calls, we charge a straightforward diagnostic fee that covers travel, on-site testing, and initial fault identification.
Q: How do General Contractors submit blueprints or RFPs for bidding?
A: General contractors and developers can submit project plans, spec sheets, and drawings directly through our online intake form by including a secure link (Procore, Dropbox, Google Drive). Our team reviews blueprinted specifications to deliver accurate, line-item technical bids.
