What to write when a pergola install price goes quiet
If $8,900 is why they have not replied, change the scope or explain the number. Do not invent a lower price in the follow-up.
Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.
Why the number is the number
Footings and whether it ties to the house change the price. The stain is a small part. The bid includes a freestanding cedar pergola on new footings, the size we staked.
What you can take out
The line you can remove is electric for a fan, and an HOA application fee. Do not attach a pergola to the house in a follow-up rewrite without a new price. Pergola estimates sit with the HOA packet, or while someone decides if it should attach to the house.

What is in the pergola install price
Hi Felicia, If $8,900 for the pergola install looks high, here is what it covers: a freestanding cedar pergola on new footings, the size we staked. I can take out electric for a fan, and an HOA application fee and send a revised number. I do not want to cut the work and leave the price looking the same. Thanks, John Abebe Abebe Outdoor
