In an effort to be fully transparent, here are some situations that you should be aware of before selecting a company you can trust.
What is Underbidding?
Underbidding in construction refers to the practice of submitting a project bid that is significantly lower than the actual costs required to complete the work. This can occur for several reasons, and it has both deliberate and unintentional forms:
Intentional Underbidding (Lowballing)
- Strategy: Contractors may intentionally submit a low bid to win the project, especially in competitive bidding situations.
- Purpose: They might plan to make up for the loss through:
- Change Orders: Charging for additional work not included in the original bid.
- Cost-cutting Measures: Using lower-quality materials or subcontractors.
- Risks: Can lead to disputes with the client or damage to the contractor’s reputation.
Unintentional Underbidding
- Errors: Miscalculations, omissions, or lack of understanding of project requirements.
- Inexperience: Contractors may underestimate labor, materials, or timelines, especially if they lack experience with similar projects.
- Market Pressure: A desire to stay competitive can lead to submitting a bid lower than the actual costs.
Consequences of Underbidding
- For Contractors:
- Financial losses if the project costs exceed the bid amount.
- Strained relationships with clients due to disputes over additional charges.
- Potential bankruptcy if the losses are significant or repeated.
- For Clients:
- Delays if the contractor cannot afford to complete the project.
- Compromised quality as contractors cut corners to reduce costs.
- Disputes over additional costs or change orders.
Mitigation Strategies
- For Contractors:
- Conduct detailed cost estimates and factor in contingencies.
- Review project scope and requirements thoroughly.
- Avoid bidding on projects that don’t align with expertise or capacity.
- For Clients:
- Assess bids critically to ensure they are realistic and comprehensive.
- Require detailed breakdowns of costs in bids.
- Select contractors based on reputation, experience, and references, not just price.
Underbidding can create significant challenges for both parties, emphasizing the importance of transparency and thorough planning during the bidding process.
What Are Allowances in Construction?
In construction and remodeling, allowances are budget placeholders for items that have not yet been selected or specified when the contract is signed. These may include materials like flooring, cabinetry, fixtures, or appliances. For instance, instead of choosing a specific kitchen countertop at the beginning of a remodel, the contractor might allocate a dollar amount in the budget as an “allowance” for the countertop, leaving the selection to be made later.
While allowances can provide flexibility, they often lead to unpredictable costs and challenges during the project.
Why Are Allowances Problematic?
- Increased Costs to the Customer
Allowances are often set at a generic or low estimate, which rarely reflects the actual cost of the selected materials. When customers choose higher-end options, they end up exceeding the allowance, resulting in unexpected expenses. - Unpredictable Problems with Installation
Choosing materials after the project has started can cause installation challenges. For example, different materials may require adjustments to the design, additional labor, or specialized tools that were not initially planned for. - Impacts on Quality and Warranties
Materials selected late in the process might not integrate seamlessly with the original design. This can lead to compromises in quality and, in some cases, void warranties if the materials aren’t installed according to manufacturer specifications. - Delays in the Project Timeline
Postponing decisions on materials creates delays in ordering, shipping, and installation. Waiting for materials to arrive can push back the entire project schedule, leading to frustration for the homeowner.
A Better Way: Upfront Selections
To avoid these pitfalls, we recommend making all material selections before the project begins. This ensures:
- A clear and accurate budget without surprises.
- Seamless installation with materials chosen specifically for the project.
- High-quality results with no compromises on warranties.
- An on-time project delivery.
By eliminating allowances, we aim to provide a smoother, more predictable remodeling experience for our customers.
