Always get 3 quotes
1 June 2021
For services, always get 3 quotes minimum. We shop around for the best price on TV’s, cars, and other products but seldom get enough quotes and trades and services.
It is important to get at least 3 quotes so that you can compare the market. You might not make your decision based on price, but 3 quotes will help you determine if your preferred servicer is competitively priced.
Implementation and cost
- Request 3 quotes from 3 different companies for the same service.
- Check your quotes carefully to ensure you are comparing apples with apples (e.g., a kitchen renovation quote might not include plumbing, electrical, appliances, removal of the old kitchen).
- Choose the best quote.
