Compare contractor quotes side by side
Enter two or three quotes for the same job and compare them on the dimensions that actually differ — not just the total price, but the scope, exclusions, warranty, payment terms, and whether the license and insurance check out.
The cheapest number is rarely the whole story. Two quotes for "the same job" often describe different work once you line up what each includes and excludes. This tool helps you see that clearly. It does not tell you which to choose — that judgment is yours.
| Compare | Quote 1 | Quote 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Company / license name | ||
| License number & verified? | ||
| Insurance (liability / workers' comp) | ||
| Total price | ||
| Work included | ||
| Exclusions | ||
| Permit — who pulls it? | ||
| Materials / products | ||
| Warranty (labor / parts) | ||
| Payment schedule | ||
| Start / completion |
This tool helps you organize quotes side by side. It does not score or recommend any quote — comparing scope, exclusions, warranty, and license/insurance is a judgment only you can make. Nothing you type is saved or sent anywhere.
How to use it well
- Get itemized written quotes for the same defined scope before comparing.
- Pay attention to exclusions — permits, materials, disposal, and cleanup are common omissions.
- Verify each contractor's license and insurance; a lower quote from an unlicensed operator is not comparable.
- Compare warranties on labor and parts separately, and read the payment schedule.
