WHAT WE NEED KNOW TO PROVIDE YOU WITH AN ESTIMATE
Have a project you think we might be great for? We would love to hear about it! And if it is not for us, we are happy to try to point you in the right direction.
There are a few things we need to know to be able to give you an estimate.
Please review our list below to help you prepare for your submission.
Though not every category might apply to your project at this stage, or ever, the more of the information you are able to send, the better!
- VISUAL
We need something to look at to understand what you need us to do! It doesn't need to be professionally rendered; a quick pic of a maquette, drawings, images, even a napkin sketch helps.
- DIMENSIONS
Send us sizes, real or imagined! Height, Width, Depth (HxWxD).
- MATERIAL
What do you imagine this made out of? Let us know, or if you are unsure, just tell us, we will have suggestions.
- TIME LINE
If you are working towards a set deadline we need to know from the time you send in your quote request. We book up very far in advance, so we do not want to get your hopes up by quoting a project we do not have time to do.
- LOCATION
Is this an interior or exterior sculpture? Let us know a bit about where it is going and what else is there so we can anticipate any environmental factors.
- SPECIFICATIONS
Are there any imposed project specification we should know about? We need to know if your commissioner, engineer, or other involved party has specified anything regarding the fabrication of your work.
- STAGE
Do you have an idea and you want to know if it is possible? Are you at the preliminary stages of a RFP? Have you been pre-selected for a competition? Have you already been awarded a contract or commission?
- BUDGET
Not everyone likes to share their budget for some reason, but it is VERY helpful to give us an idea of what you are working with. From there we can determine if the project is feasible for the cost allowance, and if not give you advice on modifications that might help you fit your design into your budget. Providing a budget saves everybody a lot of precious time.....
- YOUR CONTACT INFO
Might seem like a no brainer, but you would be surprised! Include your email address and most importantly, a phone number we can reach you at if.
