The Flaw of the “Standard Estimate”
When embarking on a massive construction project—whether it’s a Baltimore dental clinic build-out or a $600k residential major addition—submitting to a traditional “low bid” estimate is highly risky. Standard contractors often secure work by intentionally under-calculating the materials, trapping owners in a nightmare of mid-construction “Change Orders” that shatter the budget.
Prime Renovations protects client capital through absolute transparent estimation models. For major expansions, we rely heavily on detailed Pro Forma construction modeling.
The Pro Forma Advantage
A Pro Forma estimate provides you with exact financial clarity. You see our exact costs for foundation concrete, structural steel, rough plumbing, and drywall. There are no vague “allowance pools.” When we present an estimate for a medical clinic or a multi-story pop-up, you know exactly what is being spent to ensure the final finish is perfectly permanent.
