Put the quotations on the same footing
List the included products and quantities for each option. Note whether tax, freight and inside-home delivery are included. Ask what the installer will need to supply. A lower headline price may cover a different scope, so compare the final project requirements.
Separate standard choices from custom requests
A different finish or dimension can change the price and schedule. Ask the supplier to identify those changes in writing. For KOVAIRE vanities, the displayed price covers the standard set; custom changes are confirmed in the quotation before approval.
Review the conditions as well as the cost
Read the payment schedule and the terms for order changes. Confirm the estimated delivery date and how arrival concerns are reported. Keep those documents with the approved specification. A quote is useful when you understand both what will arrive and what happens if a detail needs attention.
Before you request a quote
- Compare the same quantities and delivery scope.
- Identify custom changes separately.
- Read the order terms before paying.
