To get started, go to our CONTACT page to request a free estimate, or give us a call at 402-853-0554.

We’ll get some basic contact info, schedule an in-person project review that’s most convenient for you, discuss options on-site, then begin project planning.

Availability depends on our current workload, but we can typically schedule an appointment right away. Depending on the complexity of your job, we may ask follow-up questions first.

Possibly! If we're provided enough accurate information over the phone or email (such as photos, blueprints, plans, history, background info, etc.) then we can give approximate ranges without having to visit the site.

NOTE: Approximate ranges do not qualify as official quotes. This is due to inherent limitations of not physically being on-site.

On-site cost estimates are more accurate as they allow us to determine the right amount of materials, manpower, and time required to complete any given project. For us to accurately measure the scope of your unique project, we must consider a wide variety of factors. Even if you're able to give perfect dimensions of your space, we might be looking for things which aren’t apparent to the untrained eye.

Projects — Many jobs require multifaceted time and material coordination, so we'll require an additional down-payment to book another time. However, if a reschedule fits our current workload, another down-payment may not be required.

For most projects, we charge per labor-hour, per laborer. Those hourly rates are based on a tiered skill level of our laborers. For example, more skill-driven jobs require more experienced laborers.

We also factor in the cost of project planning, travel time, fuel, materials, and any rental fees or one-time insurances required to complete unique jobs. All components will be combined into one final invoice.

On-site, we will provide a list of materials fit for your project, factoring in your goals, vision, and budget. You may purchase these materials yourself, but for an additional fee we can pick them up for you.
