How we work: from first contact to final walkthrough

Every Valido and Sons project follows six steps: initial contact, project discussion, site visit and assessment, quote and approval, scheduling and preparation, and project completion. Nothing starts without your approval, and any change to scope, schedule or cost is discussed with you first.

Sheet 04 · How we work

Six steps, no surprises.

The process is the same for every project, whatever its size.

  1. Initial contact

    Reach out through the quote form. Tell us what you need, where the project is and how you'd like us to contact you.

  2. Project discussion

    We talk through the work: what you want done, what's in place now, your priorities and any materials you've already chosen.

  3. Site visit & assessment

    When the project calls for it, we visit to measure, review existing conditions and point out anything that could affect the work.

  4. Quote & approval

    You receive a quote that describes the scope of work. Same-day quotes are part of how we work, and nothing starts until you approve.

  5. Scheduling & preparation

    We agree on a start date, confirm access to the property and settle materials, including who purchases what.

  6. Project completion

    We complete the work, clean up our work area and walk through the finished result with you.

How the estimate process works

Pricing depends on the type, size and complexity of the project. Depending on the work, pricing may be project-based or hourly.

For straightforward jobs, photos and measurements may be enough to prepare a quote. Larger or more complex projects usually need a site visit first.

Your quote describes the scope of work. Materials, selections and purchasing responsibilities are discussed before work begins.

Materials and tools

We provide the tools and equipment needed for the work we perform. Material arrangements depend on the project. We will discuss selections, purchasing responsibilities and costs before work begins.
