1Reading a Van Nuys Estimate

Comparing Van Nuys bids means comparing assemblies, not headline numbers. A Van Nuys deposit should be proportionate to materials ordered, nothing more. As a rule, a Van Nuys estimate should itemise tear-off, disposal, underlayment, covering, flashing, permit and clean-up.
