Do I have to pay for an estimate of the job?

Hi Maureen, I would make sure to ask for a quote for the work, rather than an estimate as an estimate is a rough price and not binding. The quote should be free and include a detailed job specification, price, conditions and a payment schedule. I hope this helps. Kind regards, Natalie The Ask an Expert Team
