Framing would be 215K and foundation would be 142K. These are materials and labor included. robert achtziger 5/5/2014 Andrew Can you provide some more details? What is included in the framing aspect? What is included in the foundation?? What materials are you including? Thanks Bob AO SERVICES INC 5/5/2014 Foundation includes excavation, forming, pouring and all necessary anchors for framing, slabs and steps. Framing includes all lumber for framing and fastners, straps, sheathing, installation of windows/exterior doors only. robert achtziger 5/5/2014 Andrew Back to the framing part What is the cost breakdown of materials and labor What about the roof and siding Thanks Bob AO SERVICES INC 5/5/2014 roofing and siding are done separately I can price those for you at a later date when they are closer to being ready. materials was $108K labor 107K robert achtziger 5/8/2014 Andrew I was a bit sidetracked this week with work related matters so I didn't really digest your email The foundation is $142,000???? Are you sure or is this a typo??? Thanks AO SERVICES INC 5/8/2014 this includes the excavation(removal of soil to basement level and all slab(basement floor, garage floor) and porch work, below grade piers for columns, steps to basement in garage. what makes it expensive is the amount of corners on the house and lineal ft of walls. I can look it over again and see if I can get some discounts on the forms and concrete. robert achtziger 5/8/2014 Andrew $107,000 is no doubt an error as I no have several estimates significantly below your quote So either this is an error Or you just priced it super high thinking that I would just write a blank check AO SERVICES INC 5/9/2014 Not at all Robert, I use an estimating software program used by HUD, FHA and insurance companies as well as many construction companies. In this industry you will get pricing in a wide range believe it or not even higher than me. I will make a new one just in case there was an error in the program.
