How we quote and why
• Quotes are calculated by estimating the scope of your job from the data you provide. This is a combination of estimating the laser time, material costs (if we are supplying) and any drawing / file amendment work we need to carry out, depending on what you send. It’s a how long is a piece of string scenario! We need specific details to form a quote.
• Ideally we need vector file(s) setup in the following format»
• Bear in mind that due to the nature of the quoting process it’s really difficult to quote from a verbal description, which includes a quick quote over the phone. If you don’t have vector files at this stage but want to get an idea of cost see our benchmark quote guide of what to send over».
