Elk Grove, Swimming Pool, Owner Builder, Assistance, Subcontractors…

ePoolscapes can assist you in developing an appreciation for how far your money will go in creating your dream Elk Grove backyard. We approach each opportunity to perform, first by identifying the requirements and then organizing those elements into a categorical order.

We believe, that in the responsibility of establishing a quantification for the requirements, that the expressions of price should correlate to a line item breakout for the requirements being counted.

Elk Grove Estimates are not guesstimates and as such they shouldn’t exhibit a duplicated unitized formula that was used on the last job. Why not…well as an example: In forming, placing, pouring and finishing 500 SF of concrete flat-work the labor unit would be different than say a 1,200 SF job and therefore the costs per square foot should differ. In this example; There can be an economy in scale when performing a larger work scope. A smaller square footage may limit an efficient crew deployment. So, if someone is telling you that they can perform 500…1,000 or 2,000 SF at the same unit price…well it should raise a flag as to their ability to pay attention to the details. It’s all about the details when pouring concrete and if something like this gets missed well…the concrete finish won’t be as forgiving!

To Quote Peter Drucker:

What you measure, is what you get!

So, in delegating the responsibility for the performance of a quantity survey assessment (QSA), it is crucial in accomplishing accuracy to treat each opportunity as an individual project…Click HERE to view the sixteen progressive steps in building a project start to finish…
