I just gave a bid of $1500 on a residential project hoping I was giving the customer a price break. I would like to hear some of your opinions on my bid.
She has two 15 year old decks in her back yard (large and small) that will need cleaned stripped and sealed, not to mention some probable sanding. My figures includes 8 gallons of Ready Seal and a good stripper.
A total of about 856 sq ft. This includes deck floors two box planters, both rail sides an about 100 spindles total not including the 4x4 rail support beams. It's all low to the ground and about 10 to 15 yards away from the swimming pool.
Flat work consists of about 2500 sq ft of concrete around pool, driveway, sidewalks and curbs. The home has an enormous amount of efloresence on about 800 sq ft of dark red brick which will require another acid bath and scrubbing like I just did recently.
If possible, could you give me your bid.
Your help would be appreciated.
I would like to show the customer your comments.
Please be honest, if I'm to high or if I'm not really giving her a break, she needs to know.
She's a real sweet lady who recently lost her husband. I need the job, but I want to be fair and not take advantage of her.
Thank You
