Initial Contact: This is where you have called MVEC and we determine the best course of action to follow next. Either a scheduled visit, a prompt quote, or an on-site evaluation.

• Scheduled Visit: We schedule a time to come and complete your project for an agreed upon hourly rate plus materials.
• Prompt Quote: We provide a quote with the provided information that was acquired either over the phone or by form submission. We then provide the quote to you at which point you have the opportunity to discuss it with our Bid Technician. Once it’s agreed upon, we move to the next step.
• On-site Evaluation: We determine that an on-site visit is necessary to provide you with the best experience available. We schedule this with you at your earliest convenience. This visit is used to evaluate your needs and wants, and to give our input where we think necessary. Once, the on-site is done we provide you with the best option for your job, either a hard bid contract or Cost Plus contract.


Contract Types:


• Hard Bid Contract: This is a type of contract where we provide a fixed price for a job. Once agreed upon, this is the price we will do that project for. Any additional work outside of the provided scope will be considered a change order and a increase to the total cost of the project shall reflect the additional work.
• Cost Plus Contract: This is a type of contract where we give a general estimate of cost for your project, but we charge for material and labor as we work towards completion of the contract according to the contract terms. Most of our customers choose this type of contract as it is the most cost-effective for both you and the contractor. The reason for this is you are only paying for what you want done and the contractor doesn’t need to build in a margin of safety into the price like they do for a Hard Bid contract.
