The last follow-up for a built-in shelves estimate
Day 10 is the last email on the default schedule. There is not a fourth follow-up after this. Ask if you should keep the built-in shelves estimate for $5,600 open.
Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.
Close it or keep it
Say you will stop emailing if you do not hear back, and that a reply reopens the conversation. Shop time comes before install. Tell them the build week and the install day as two dates.
Who still has to decide
Stain color is a decision for whoever lives with the room, and it has to be made before the wood is ordered. Carpentry estimates wait on paint-grade versus stain-grade, because that choice changes the wood and the price. Do not start a stain-grade build on a paint-grade deposit.

Should I keep your built-in shelves estimate open?
Hi Claire, Last note on the built-in shelves estimate for $5,600. If I do not hear back, I will close it on my end and stop following up. If you want it kept open, reply with a yes. Are we staying with paint-grade, or do you want a stain-grade price? Thanks, Tom Reilly Reilly Carpentry
