ESTIMATES TEN Jobs
IN ORDER TO GET ONE
Building Age Thus illustrates Elk
perience Of Average Contractor.
One Remedy Suggested.

The average builder doing competi-
tive work will estimate on ten Jobs
in order to secure one. says Building
Age. Each one of these estimates will
cost on the average at least $75. Thus
an outlay Of at least $3.50 must be
made before a contract is secured.
s675 Of which is waste pure and sim
pie.
This 1915 goes into the builders
overhead. 1t is charged up against
the one job in ten secured. adding
just that much to the cost.
Many an architects expenses also
goes into useless overhead. In re-
cent competition seventy-fve archi-
tects submitted plans for an ex-
1hs
this job averaged $1,000. Wasted
$4,000. And the owners paid for this
in the form Of an architects over
head.
Calls Condition "Deplorable."
That condition is deplorable. If
owners who desired competitive plans
or a choice of estimates paid for just
as many as desired then less waste
effort would be required and overhead
would be lowered. That means an ap-
OF course, when a builder goes after
a job, having no competition. it is
good business for him to give an
estimate Of cost. The owner naturally
desires to know the cost of the work
before proceeding. If it is too high
the builder does not secure the job.
but neither does anybody else.
Too often, however, in localities
where many contractors are willing
to bid, ten or twelve will be asked
to submit estimates-free. All bids
may be rejected. At best, only one
will win out; the others will have
had their trouble for nothing.
1ndiscriminate Service.
That is not fair, but. unfortunately.
the trade has educated the public to
expect this sort of indiscriminate
service.
Now that costs have advanced go
considerably it is time that such
wholesale free estimates on COM
petitive business be eliminated Let
owners pay for just those estimates
required; they will find their costs
lower.
Elimination Of the free estimate
evil will do much to lower the cost of
building.
