The Number You Plug Into the Bid

A standard single zone is $2,400 on a weekday. Materials and labor sit in that figure. Weekend work is $2,600. That is the cell you fill today.

You do not wait on a quote to fill a standard single zone cell. Service area is Austin and the I-35 corridor. Jester Climate is the sub. Call (512) 297-7493.

What the Flat Number Covers

A standard single zone is one indoor head and one outdoor condenser, materials and labor. Mounting, the line set, the drain, the electrical whip, and the wall penetration sit inside the weekday figure. Equipment 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. Line set routing, circuit size, drain routing, and penetration location are confirmed at the site walk. Anything outside that standard scope is quoted before any work begins.

How to Write the Line Item

Use one line. Call it a standard single zone mini split install, materials and labor. Price it $2,400 for a weekday slot or $2,600 for a weekend slot. That is the number that goes in the estimate today.

The cooling line has to sit in the estimate before the offer, not after. If the house needs more than one zone, call (512) 297-7493 before you lock the bid. Do not guess the add.

  • Std single zone mini split, materials and labor
  • $2,400 weekday slot
  • $2,600 weekend slot
  • Call (512) 297-7493 for work that is not standard

Why a Fixed Price Beats a Pending Quote

Holding cost runs while you wait on a sub to walk the house and send a number. A pending quote is a blank cell in the bid. A blank cell either pads the offer or leaves you short at walkthrough.

Write the weekday number. Book with a $400 materials deposit. Balance is due on completion. Non standard work is quoted before any work begins.

  • Pending quote is a blank cell in the bid
  • Blank cells pad the offer or cut the margin
  • Holding cost does not wait on a walk
  • Write $2,400 today for a weekday standard zone
  • $400 deposit books the date
  • Balance due on completion

Deposit, Joker Day, Repeat Work

$400 materials deposit books the date. Balance is due on completion. If the only open slot is a weekend, the number is $2,600. One Joker Day each week sits under the weekday rate.

Check the home page for which day it is this week. You pick the date; it gets confirmed. If anything changes, you get told. For repeat work, call (512) 297-7493 to set up repeat scheduling.

Walkthrough and the Site Walk

The site walk is where standard and not standard get sorted. Nothing variable is assumed from a photo. Equipment size, routing, and circuit wait for that walk.

That record is what you have when the buyer walks the house. Permits are on the owner or the general contractor. Requirements vary by jurisdiction.

How the money worksTwo payments, no surprises

$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.

Questions builders ask
Can I put $2,400 in the bid before a site walk?
Yes, if the line is a standard single zone. Weekday is $2,400, materials and labor. Weekend is $2,600. Work that is not standard gets a quote first.
What happens if the site walk changes the job?
Line set routing, circuit size, drain routing, penetration location, and equipment size are confirmed at the site walk. If that walk takes the job out of standard, you get a quote before any work begins. You then decide whether to add it.
How does the date get set around other trades?
You pick the date. It gets confirmed. If anything changes, you get told. A $400 materials deposit books it. Call (512) 297-7493.
Do you pull permits?
No. Requirements vary by jurisdiction. Confirming the permit is on the owner or the general contractor. That is not part of the $2,400 weekday number.
What is Joker Day?
One Joker Day each week is priced lower than the weekday rate. Which day it lands on changes week to week. It is revealed on the home page. Call (512) 297-7493 if you want that slot.
