The job
Back-to-brick jobs are where quotes go wrong. Everything is opened up, the client is choosing finishes as the job runs, and the difference between the original price and the final account is decided by how well every change is captured.
A job of this size is also a cash-flow job. Materials are bought in big lumps, so the stage payments have to be agreed at the start and invoiced on the day they fall due.
Delivered by Tatton Projects (a Federation of Master Builders member, Constructionline Gold) for Private client. Contract value as published by Tatton Projects. See the full project and photographs on tatton-projects.co.uk → References for this job are available from Tatton Projects on request.

Deposit, structure, first fix, second fix, completion: each milestone on the quote, each one invoiced when it is reached.
Milestone invoicingJob costing against the quote
Receipts, supplier invoices and labour against the job as it runs, so the margin is visible before the final account.
