The Price That Changes After Work Starts Is the Price That Was Quoted Blind
The most common complaint about renovation contractors is the price that changes after work starts. The "discovery" that adds $3,000. The "while we're in there" that turns into a different job than the one you agreed to.
DMS doesn't quote blind. We look before we quote. We open what we need to open to see what's there — moisture damage, old wiring, structural issues, whatever the wall is hiding. We tell you what we find before we give you a number.
If something genuinely unexpected comes up after work starts — something that couldn't be seen before — we stop, tell you what we found, explain what it means for the scope and the price, and wait for your decision. You don't find out after the fact.
