Why Cheapest Isn’t Always Best or gives Value for Money

“Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.” – Warren Buffett

When looking for a quote for your next home or office project, whether it’s an air conditioning system or any other product or service, you will probably be faced with a range of prices, high and low. Let’s investigate whether the least expensive quote really is the best, or whether you should invest a little more upfront in your project.

Is the cheapest quote the best?

In short, the answer is no – you really do get what you pay for.

Everybody loves a bargain. It is important to get a good value for your hard earned money. However, there are times when saving does not always equal to a good deal. Do you eat at the cheapest restaurants? What about the car you drive every day…was it the cheapest make and model that you could have found? Would you fully trust a doctor/lawyer just because you got to know that their charges are cheap ?

Most people’s homes and offices are their largest investment, so the cost of the work should not be the primary decision metric when looking at improving upon that investment. Many things must be taken into consideration when looking at quotes. You also have to wonder if the contractor you choose will be in business years down the road should you need their services for maintenance or other projects.

 

What should you look for ?

So, when you are comparing quotes for your project, dig deeper into the companies.

  • Will the contractors working on your project be professional, capable, respectful, and knowledgeable, or are they simply laborers or box movers (simple retailers/distributors)?
  • Are the workers trained ?
  • Are the workers covered for any risks in case of any untoward incident or accident?
  • What kind of workmanship support & warranty is offered?
  • What is the warranty on the products being used?
  • Are your best interests – both short and long term – addressed in the quote?
  • Are they local?
  • Find out what their story is and look at their portfolios.
  • How long have they been in business?
  • Are they diversified and stable?
  • Is their work well documented and high quality?
  • How are their online reviews?
  • What are the kind of projects they have done earlier?
  • Are they an award-winning company?

You will find that the cheapest quote often comes with more risk. Any and all home/office projects are meant to make your life comfortable and easier. If a company comes in with a really low quote, ask yourself if this is truly going to make your life easier, or a headache for you down the road.
