2022-10-19 09:30 - 10:30 UTC
When it comes time to replace the common elements of your community, such as the roofs and roads, in order to receive bids from contractors you will need a clear set of specifications that clearly outline what should be included, materials to be used as well as warranties and pricing structures which can easily be used for comparing prices from multiple contractors. This program will address the process from beginning to end with examples of all phases from actual projects.
