Ask when a punch-list visit should happen

The useful question is which week is real. If the work is next season, stop the follow-ups and let them reopen it.

Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.

What the calendar really depends on

One visit covers the list we wrote. A second trip is a new appointment, not a leftover from this price.

If they need longer

Handyman lists go quiet because each item feels small, and the trip charge only makes sense for the whole list. Whoever keeps adding items after the email is who blows the half-day. Do not fold a permitted electrical job into a handyman list.

If you send it from QuoteLasso

The default schedule is three emails, at 2, 5, and 10 days. Day 10 is the last one. You can move the dates. Add the estimate by typing it in, forwarding the message, or importing a spreadsheet. The customer sees your business name and the address followups@quotelasso.com. A reply comes to your inbox and the remaining follow-ups stop. QuoteLasso does not send texts. During the 14-day trial, due emails can send on their own. After that, Free is manual. Starter is $79/month and Pro is $149/month.

Timing for the punch-list visit

Hi Erin,

If you want the punch-list visit on the calendar, tell me which week is realistic and I will see if I can hold it. The estimate is $860.

If this is a later-season project, say so and I will stop following up until you ask.

Thanks,
