Ways to lower your Houston price
- Bundle radon, sewer scope and termite with the base inspection for a package rate.
- Attend the inspection — verbal findings often reveal more than the report.
- Collect three written bids on an identical scope — spreads of 20–40% are normal.
- Book in the off-season and stay flexible on the start date to save 5–15%.
- Bundle nearby work into one mobilization so you only pay setup and travel once.
- Ask what the contractor would change to cut 10% without hurting durability.
