The subject-specific need
Compare offers with matching duration, duties and visit counts, then check what each price includes. The lowest number alone does not explain service scope or additional terms.
A priority card
Divide a sheet into essential today, optional if time remains and deferred. Define an observable outcome for each essential duty, then review whether the agreed time can accommodate it.
Working checklist
- Use the same duty list when requesting offers
- Ask about included and excluded costs
- Keep the written offer before deciding
Applying the checklist
Instead of asking for everything, place the first duty below in the essential column and identify what can move to the next visit. Review the order with the person carrying out the work.
Which outcome do we specifically need today?
Write an answer specific to your home, then add the duty, its location and review time. Use this table during discussion; it does not replace an offer or contract.
| Duty | Location | Review time |
|---|---|---|
| Use the same duty list when requesting offers | ||
| Ask about included and excluded costs | ||
| Keep the written offer before deciding |
Boundaries to confirm
Do not treat prices from a previous offer as applying to every customer or area; ask about availability and terms.
