Asked before the first job.
Can you price just my trade?
Yes. Single trade, a group of divisions, or the whole building.
Do you include prevailing wage?
When the job requires it, yes, at the published rates for that county.
What if an addendum lands mid-estimate?
It gets priced in. If it changes the scope, the fee change is quoted to you before the work is done.
