Frequently asked questions

How accurate is this estimate?

This provides a starting estimate using configurable assumptions (productivity, wages, season length). For accurate pricing, conduct an on-site measurement and inspection.

Do you include permits or HOA requirements?

No — permit fees or special HOA requirements should be added to the final contract if applicable.

How should I price recurring vs one-off jobs?

Recurring contracts usually have a lower per-visit price due to guaranteed work and reduced travel overhead. Use visits-per-season and target margin to model both options.
