Factors That Shape Your Flat Fee
Drawing Set Size
More sheets, more systems, more measured runs. Larger sets take more estimator hours - but our flat fee is still quoted firm before we start.
Scope Complexity
Mission-critical systems, redundancy configurations, and specialized code compliance (Title 24, NFPA 99, HCAI) add depth to a takeoff.
Turnaround Speed
Standard 24-48 hour delivery is included. Rush 24-hour and same-day options are quoted with a transparent surcharge upfront.
Number of Systems
Power, lighting, fire alarm, low-voltage, and specialty systems are priced incrementally - you only pay for the scope you need.
Deliverable Format
Excel, PDF summary, and color-coded marked-up plans are standard. Additional formats or specialized BOM layouts are quoted as needed.
Revisions & Support
Clarification-driven revisions are free. Bid-day support and scope changes on genuinely new work are quoted transparently.
