One number for your bid, no surprises

Plug $2,400 into your estimate for a standard single zone mini split. Weekends are $2,600. One JOKER DAY each week is priced lower than the weekday rate; check the home page for which day it lands.

The $400 materials deposit books the date. Balance is due when the install is complete. Non standard work is quoted before any work begins.

Dates that hold, no timeline blowouts

Pick a weekday date when the drywall crew is clear. The date gets confirmed when you book. If anything changes, you get told.

Crews show up ready to work. No waiting on parts, no callbacks. The install is done before the next trade steps in.

What the client sees at walkthrough

Indoor unit is level, mounted tight to the wall. Line set is sleeved, sealed, painted to match. Outdoor unit is on a pad, clear of debris.

No cut corners, no sloppy work. The install looks like it belongs in the house.

What gets confirmed at the site walk

Line set length, circuit size, drain routing, penetration location, and equipment sizing are all confirmed on site. No change orders after the fact.

Sizing 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.

$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
What's the difference between a standard and non standard install?
Standard covers one indoor/outdoor unit pair with typical line set length, circuit, drain routing, and wall penetration. Non standard work, like longer line sets, additional electrical, or non typical drain routing, is quoted before work begins.
How do I know what size unit to bid?
Sizing is a rule of thumb confirmed at the site walk. West-facing windows, attic heat, and insulation levels all affect the final size. The crew lead will confirm the right unit before install.
What if the install date changes?
You pick the date when you book. If anything changes, you get told. There's no penalty for rescheduling, but the deposit holds the slot until you confirm a new date.
Who handles permits?
Permit requirements vary by jurisdiction. Confirming that is on the owner or the general contractor. We don't pull permits.
Can I book multiple installs at once?
