We had DeLeers come out to look at a small remodeling project. At the appointment, we discussed budget and ballpark estimates, and Brian felt confident we’d land roughly in the $20k range. He used phrases like “on the high side” and I can’t imagine it being more than that,” and made us feel assured that our budgeting was appropriate.
