Key thing is to understand what is the requirement . Example some people do not include haulage charges etc as part of their quote . Don’t be surprise many first timer would be caught off guard with the small add ons

Even with ID package, there are add on as well.

This is why must always clarify with contractor/ID if there are any other misc charges when asking for quotes.

Big companies like Darwin, Weiken and Northwest are honest. They have a reputation to protect and will see to it that the project is completed in a satisfactory manner even if they have to sack their own ID.

Cheap or not depends on your budget. Some people think 25k is cheap while others might think it is so expensive.

A contractor can promise you the sky or can tell you words like 'oh because you are so and so's friends, I will charge you best/good price' 'Cheaper than ID' 'very cheap' 'best value' but they will keep on adding on to the cost when you make changes.

My suggestion is to get a package from reno companies. Very often, with package discussed, you already know how much the price may go to and you cut down all the hagglings and just focus on the reno.

im one that skip all this huge companies, too much marketing involved.

i go for relatively smaller reno co and relatively not so well known in the industry.
