The number that goes in the pro forma
A spec bid needs one figure you can paste today. Weekday column is $2,400. Weekend column is $2,600. Both are materials and labor for a standard single zone mini split installation.
If the house needs something else, that is quoted before any work begins. It does not sit inside the $2,400. Call (512) 297-7493. Service area is Austin and the I-35 corridor.
- Paste $2,400 on a weekday house
- Paste $2,600 on a weekend house
- Extras quoted before work, not after
- Same line item on the next address
How the date is booked
You pick the date. It gets confirmed. If anything changes, you get told.
A $400 materials deposit books the date. Balance is due on completion. Call (512) 297-7493 to book.
If the site is not ready
Do not let the crew arrive to a locked house or a slab with no walls. Call (512) 297-7493 when the sequence slips. Name the lot and what is not ready.
If drywall already closed the walls, say that on the call. Work through finished surfaces is not standard. Non standard work is quoted before any work begins.
Call before the drywall crew leaves
Indoor head location, line set path, drain routing, and penetration location are confirmed at the site walk. That walk is cleaner on open framing. After board, the same path is a finished wall.
Finished wall work is not a standard single zone install. It is quoted before any work begins. Call (512) 297-7493 while the drywall crew is still on the job, not after they leave.
- Open studs for the site walk
- Head location confirmed before board
- Drain and line path confirmed before board
- After board, extras get quoted first
Weekday, weekend, and the joker day
Buy the day that matches the drywall sequence. Weekday is $2,400. Weekend is $2,600. Put the matching figure in the bid.
One joker day each week is priced lower than the weekday rate. Which day it lands on changes week to week and is revealed on the home page. Check the home page, then call (512) 297-7493.
The next house in the run
Call (512) 297-7493 to set up repeat scheduling. Use the same line item. Size is a rule of thumb confirmed on site.
A casita reads smaller than it loads. West glass and a hot attic push the size up. The size gets confirmed on site.

- Outdoor unitThe outdoor unit is placed at the location confirmed at the site walk.
- Lines, drain, hookupLine set, drain, and electrical hookup follow the routing confirmed at the site walk. A changed path is non standard and is quoted before that work begins.
- Start upThe system is started. The superintendent reviews it before the crew leaves.
Phases run in this order on a standard job. Site conditions change the pace, so nothing here is a timeline commitment. If something on site is different from the walk, you get told before it turns into cost.
$400 materials deposit books the date and buys the equipment for your job. Balance due on completion, on the visit the system runs.
$2,400 weekday. $2,600 Saturday or Sunday. One Joker day each week is priced under the weekday rate. The day moves week to week and it is shown on the home page, so if your schedule has slack you can aim at it.
Non standard work is quoted before any work begins. Nothing gets added to the number without you approving it first.

- Can every spec house take the $2,400 line item?
- If it is a standard single zone mini split installation on a weekday, yes. If that house falls on a weekend, use $2,600. Anything outside standard is a separate quote before work begins.
- Drywall slipped a week. Now what?
- Call (512) 297-7493 and name the lot. Say whether the walls are still open. If the walls closed, treat the path as non standard and get it quoted before work begins.
- Why call while drywall is still on site?
- The site walk confirms penetration location and routing on the real wall. Once board is up, that same work hits a finished surface. Finished surface work is quoted before it starts, and it is not the $2,400 line item.
- How does the joker day work on a spec calendar?
- One joker day each week is priced lower than the weekday rate. The day moves week to week. It is posted on the home page; call (512) 297-7493 if that day matches the house.
- Do you pull permits on spec houses?
- No. Jester Climate does not pull permits. Requirements vary by jurisdiction. Confirming the permit is on the owner or the general contractor.
