Before you quote

What to verify on this Renton job

Does the scope require mechanical, electrical or both trade permits?

Does outdoor equipment location trigger setbacks, screening or other site review?

Will the electrical load or equipment replacement change the electrical scope?

What inspections or plan-review conditions should be built into the schedule?

Why this affects the estimate

Permit risk is margin risk when it appears after the quote.

Authority

City boundaries, utility territories and project ownership do not always line up the way a street address suggests.

Scope

A project can cross electrical, mechanical, utility or site-review boundaries depending on the actual installation.

Schedule

Plan review, utility engineering, corrections and inspection sequencing can change when the work can start or finish.
