Planning a home improvement project? Finding the right contractor can feel like navigating a maze. Between quotes, estimates, and promises, there's one thing no homeowner wants: contractor surprise charges. At Nelson Exteriors, we've built our reputation on trust, transparency, and a commitment to no surprises—and it all starts with our fixed-price contracts.
What Are Fixed-Price Contracts?
Picture this: you're booking an all-inclusive vacation. Everything is covered—flights, food, and even those extra beach towels. You know exactly what you're paying upfront, with no hidden fees for "sunset views." Fixed-price contracts work the same way for your home improvement projects.
At Nelson Exteriors, we use fixed-price contracts to provide detailed proposals that outline the full scope of work. This ensures you know exactly what you're paying for—and nothing more.

Why Fixed-Price Contracts Beat Traditional Estimates
When contractors rely on estimates, there's often room for unexpected charges to creep in. Perhaps they underestimated the amount of material needed or forgot to include the cost of specialized tools. Whatever the reason, you're left footing the bill. Here's why fixed-price contracts are different:
- Clarity and Transparency: A fixed-price contract clearly defines the work we'll perform and the exact cost. There's no guessing and no fine print.
- No Surprise Charges: You'll never hear, "Oops, we forgot to add this," or "This is going to cost extra." The price we quote is the price you pay.
- Simplified Budgeting: Fixed pricing allows you to budget with confidence, knowing that your project won't exceed your financial expectations.

Change Orders: Flexibility Without the Stress
While a fixed-price contract locks in your costs for the agreed-upon scope of work, we understand that plans can evolve. Maybe you decide you'd like to add siding to your shed while we're working on your home. No problem! We handle these changes through a well-defined change order process. This ensures:
- Clear Communication: Any additional work is discussed and agreed upon before proceeding.
- Fair Pricing: Changes are priced transparently and added to the original contract.
With this approach, you stay in control of your project without worrying about unexpected charges.
Detailed Estimates: The Foundation of Transparency
At Nelson Exteriors, we go above and beyond to ensure our estimates are as detailed as possible. Before creating your fixed-price contract, we meticulously evaluate every aspect of your project. From materials and labor to timelines and potential challenges, we account for it all.
This thorough approach means that when you receive a quote from us, it's accurate and comprehensive. No vague terms. No room for misunderstanding. Just a clear outline of what you can expect.
