[quote=Anonymous]We are renovating our basement - installing inside stairs, knocking down a wall and reconfiguring a kitchen, remodeling a bathroom. We found a company we're interested in working with, but they want a deposit with a letter of intent (which states general scope of work and budget we are looking to work within) before they give us a detailed estimate. Is this the normal process for this? We're just worried about handing over money before having a more detailed estimate and scope of work. At the same time, I understand it may be difficult to have a more detailed estimate without knowing the exact plans (we need to move utilities around and we're not sure where they will be going at this point). Is this a normal process? We're a bit weary.[/quote]
