Run your own quote

Paste or upload the estimate. The free scan lists the sections it found, the sections that look missing or unclear, and a question list you can send to the contractor. It does not tell you whether a price is fair, because that is not something a document review can answer.

Frequently asked

Why is the closed permit useful later?

It is the document a buyer, appraiser or insurer may ask for. Collecting it at the end costs nothing.

Who decides if a permit is required?

Your local building department. Neither we nor a contractor quote can decide that for your address.
