Quote Check Sample review, bathroom remodel

  1. Line 4, "Tile allowance $4/sq ft" The tile in your photos is about $11/sq ft. Expect roughly $1,800 more, or ask for the allowance to be raised in writing.
  2. Not listed: permit Moving a shower drain usually needs a plumbing permit in your city. Ask who pulls it and whether the fee is included.
  3. Labor rate Within the typical range for your region for this scope.
  4. Payment: 50% at signing High. Ask for a smaller deposit with payments tied to milestones.
An excerpt, for illustration. Real reviews cover every line.

How it will work

  1. Upload your quote, as a PDF or clear photos, plus your ZIP code and five quick questions about the job. Cover any names or account numbers you'd rather we didn't see.
  2. A reviewer reads every line. Reviewers have hands-on estimating experience in residential construction. They compare scope, materials and price against typical ranges for your area.
  3. You get a written review by email within 2 business days: what's fine, what's missing, what's vague, and the questions to ask. You decide what to do with it.

What a review is, and isn't

A Quote Check is an independent written opinion based on the documents you send. It isn't an inspection, an appraisal, legal advice or a guaranteed price, and we can't see what's behind your walls. It's the informed second opinion most homeowners wish they'd had before signing.

We will never contact your contractor, share your quote, or try to sell you financing.
