Estimate Review

Independent estimate review for Florida HOA and condo boards

Boards need more than a total price. This page explains how to compare scope, quantities, code items, overhead, allowances, and change-order exposure before approving repairs.

COABlueprint is designed to attract communities searching for help with contractor bid comparison, insurance claim support, and cost sanity checks. The commercial call-to-action points to estimate review as the clearest next step.

Boards can use estimate review to identify missing scope, inflated line items, soft-cost assumptions, warranty gaps, or code-triggered repairs that may otherwise surface later as change orders.

What gets reviewed

• Scope completeness against visible damage and probable code needs

• Unit pricing and quantity assumptions

• Overhead, profit, contingency, and general conditions

• Change-order risk and vague contract language

• Insurance claim usability of the estimate package

Board workflow

1. Upload the estimate package.

2. Compare pricing and scope against a structured review framework.

3. Bring cleaner questions to the contractor, adjuster, engineer, or counsel.

4. Document the board's decision with more confidence.
