What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

Ask what will you do and why will you do that. If you are not educated, and understand things after getting those answers, you are probably being kept in the dark without a clue what will be done.
What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
What life expectancy are there for this product? What type of Ice+Water shield will be used? Do you offer warranties? How thick is the rubber being installed? What is the MASS requirement on doing what you proposed?
