FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I do not charge for estimates and with all the different types of tile now out there it is hard to have a set price site unseen. I do however have a set minimum, even if the job is very small. My 1 day rate is $400.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Give an in home estimate first. Be extremely thorough and go over all of the customers options on each project. Often, I will have different quotes depending on the scope of work that we are doing. Once all that is ironed out, I email them a quote and if they like it we set up a start date.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I was trained for about 8 weeks about 32 years ago and have been doing this ever sense. I also trained with the BAC Local 67, now known as Local 21. I took all of their tile improver classes and became a Journeyman in 2000. I also have had some advanced training classes in the last 8 years or so just to keep up with the new materials now available to my trade.
