Advice on Very First ESTIMATES!!!!

[NateF 14]

Hello all. Well the weather finally warmed up a bit and I've started getting quite a few calls. Just wanted to get everyones opinion on how much they would bid on my fist 2 estimates. I have already figured the estimates and will post my figures after a few have replied. Just want too see how close to everyone elses figures I am. If you dont want to post publically please send me a pm. The deck is a 4 year old 16x12 with failing stain. Stairs are 6x5. The fence is 40 feet by 6 feet high also with failing stain. Only 16 feet of the fence will be done on both sides. I will be stripping with F-18, brightening with F-8 and staining with Wood Tux. The concrete pics are for a local bank. There are 3160 total sq ft of concrete including sidewalks, parking pads, and drive throughs. The only bad oil stains are in the drive throughs. There are a few very minor stains on the parking pads. I will be cleaning the stains with F-18 and the rest with just hot water and surface cleaner. I just want approx figures. No need to display too much info on a public forum. Thanks alot

Dress well.

Keep what you say to the basics.

If you don't know the answer to a question, tell them you will get back to them, don't pull the answer out of thin air.

Be polite.

Thank them for their time when you are done.

On the fence you need to add about 30% more sq. ft. to it because of it being shadowbox. Why do they just want 16' done?

Wear new shoes, you'll get the jobs.
