What's included in your Quick Quote Check

A focused, written review designed to be read in under 30 minutes — and to save you thousands once you do.

Red-flag scan

Every line of your contractor's quote read against the checks we run on real projects. Vague pricing, missing materials, unenforceable wording — flagged plainly.

Scope-gap list

The items a quote should include but doesn't — permits, disposal, prep work, change-order terms — listed so you know what's actually being paid for.

Clarifying questions

A short list of the exact questions to send your contractor before signing. Worded so you get straight answers, not deflection.

48-hour turnaround

Delivered to your inbox within 48 business hours of purchase. No back-and-forth — one quote in, one written review out.

What a $49 review actually catches

Three real findings from quotes we see every week in the Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge-Guelph market. Every one of them costs more than $49 to miss.

01Materials: "as discussed"

No SKUs, no brand, no grade. "As discussed" is unenforceable — you'd be paying for whatever shows up on the truck.

02$8,500 lump sum — no breakdown

No labour-versus-materials split. You can't verify markup, and can't change scope without renegotiating from zero.

03Warranty: 1 year

Ontario industry standard is two years on workmanship for most trades. Below market — usually a quiet cost-saver on the contractor's end.

Frequently asked questions

An independent written review of one contractor quote, delivered within 48 business hours. It flags red flags, vague or missing scope, pricing concerns, warranty issues, and gives you a short list of clarifying questions to ask the contractor before you sign or pay a deposit.

Yes. The Quick Quote Check is built precisely for that ratio. Even on a $3,000–$10,000 project, one missing scope item or vague materials line can cost more than $49 to fix later. The review pays for itself the first time it prevents a change order.

No. The Quick Quote Check is for your eyes only. We do not contact your contractor — that only happens on the Tier 3 Broker-Assisted Review. You decide what to do with the findings.

Quick Quote Check covers one quote. If you have multiple quotes for the same project, the Tier 2 Risk & Scope Review ($197 CAD) covers one to three quotes in a full head-to-head audit. We credit the $49 toward the upgrade within 14 days.

Our core service area is Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, and Guelph. We also work with homeowners in surrounding communities including Elmira, St. Jacobs, New Hamburg, Ayr, Breslau, Fergus, Elora, and Puslinch. All work is remote, so location does not change turnaround.
