Homeowner estimate review
Two quotes for the same renovation can include very different work. Plan to Price helps homeowners review contractor estimates, compare scopes and prepare clear questions before making a decision. Our remote review is based on the documents and project information you provide.
Request a custom quoteCompare scope before comparing totals
One contractor may include demolition, disposal and surface preparation while another lists only installation. Allowances can also differ in amount and meaning. We organize the important differences so you can see which items appear included, excluded or unresolved, and identify where clarification is needed.
A practical written review
The agreed review may include a side-by-side scope comparison, an allowance and exclusion summary, and questions to send to the contractors. You can also ask about a specific change order or an unclear item in a single estimate. Tell us your main concerns so the review addresses the decision you are facing.
What the review can and cannot establish
Documents alone cannot confirm concealed conditions, contractor workmanship or the final cost of a project. The review is not a site inspection, engineering opinion or legal review of your contract. It helps you understand the supplied information and seek clarification; it does not guarantee a contractor’s price or performance.
What to send
- Contractor quotes, scopes and any related change orders
- A description of your home project and its current stage
- Your main questions, optional budget and preferred review date
You can start with an inquiry and share available PDF, JPG or PNG files. The form accepts up to three project files totaling 15 MB. We will clarify missing information before confirming the service quote.
Frequently asked questions
Can I submit just one estimate?
Yes. A single estimate can be reviewed for scope clarity, allowances, exclusions and questions to raise. Multiple quotes allow a comparison of what each contractor includes.
Do I need construction drawings?
No drawings are required for an initial inquiry. Include them if they help explain the quoted work. We confirm what documents are necessary before pricing the review.
Is the review free?
Submitting an inquiry is free. The review itself is a paid service, with a written custom quote for your approval before work starts.
Start with your project details.
We review the information, confirm the deliverables and send a written service quote. Your fee and delivery schedule are agreed before work begins. No payment is collected through the inquiry form.
