Two quotes for the same square metres can differ widely, often because they do not describe the same job. The right questions make quotes truly comparable.
Why the questions matter
Flooring quotes can differ greatly in system, thickness and preparation scope. Looking only at the price per square metre is misleading.
System and preparation
1) Which system is proposed and why? 2) What is the total thickness? 3) How will the floor be prepared? 4) Will concrete moisture be tested? 5) Are crack and joint repairs included?
Materials and schedule
6) Which products will be used, and can their data sheets be shared? 7) How many days will it take, and when can the area be used?
Warranty and after
8) What does the warranty cover and for how long? 9) What maintenance is recommended? 10) Can similar completed projects be seen?
Comparing
Putting the answers side by side shows clearly where the price difference between quotes comes from.
