A professional window replacement quote should go far beyond a single bottom-line figure. To ensure you can compare bids fairly and avoid unexpected costs, a detailed written estimate should include the following components:
- Detailed Scope of Work: A clear list of every window included in the project, the specific labor involved, and the materials to be used.
- Itemized Material List: Specifics on the window brands, models, and glass types to ensure you receive the exact products you expect.
- Permit Fees: These should be clearly itemized or noted as a separate cost, which is particularly important in areas like Denver where permits are often required.
- Warranty Details: Information regarding both the product warranty from the manufacturer and the workmanship warranty from the contractor (e.g., a five-year workmanship warranty).
- Payment Schedule: A clear breakdown of when deposits and final payments are due.
- Preparation Requirements: The quote should also account for home preparation needs, such as interior floor protection or exterior scaffolding.
