Garage and accessory-structure projects reviewed for intended use, access, and utilities.
Plan the scope →How to define the work
Record the drawing revision, project description, intended use, and finish selections sent to each bidder. Ask every estimator to identify assumptions. If one proposal uses a conceptual sketch and another uses reviewed plans, keep that difference visible. Do not treat those totals as prices for the same project.
The first review confirms project fit. Design, engineering, specialist assessments, permits, material selections, and construction responsibilities should be identified in the proposed scope. Availability and a final price require review of the actual property.
The ADU and addition bid comparison worksheet
A low total can hide a smaller scope. Compare estimates only after identifying which drawings, assumptions, allowances, and responsibilities each one uses. This worksheet is a way to organize a decision, not a cost estimator.
