American Residential Consulting

Planning a home improvement project? Did something expensive just break and you need to get bids for repair or replacement? Most experts recommend getting three bids…but calling the right contractors in the first place and properly analyzing the bids are the most crucial steps in finding the best fit for your unique situation. Different products, warranties, installation methods, and hidden costs can make bids look similar when they’re actually very different. If you're going to spend between $1,500 and $100,000+ on a home project, why not get a trusted third-party opinion first? That’s where I help. I’m a Pacific Northwest residential home product and contracting expert who provides independent bid comparison consulting. Unbiased guidance that isn’t tied to selling you a product or pushing a contractor. My goal is simple: Help you avoid costly mistakes and choose the best solution for your home. If you're not satisfied with my guidance then you don't pay anything. Projects I Help Evaluate: Roofing Windows Doors Exterior siding Paint & stain Flooring Kitchens & bathrooms HVAC (ducted & ductless) Water heaters (tank & tankless) Backup generators (gas & battery) Solar panels Insulation Electrical panels Pavers & concrete Gutters & leaf guards EV chargers What You Get With a Bid Comparison: When you collect three contractor bids, I’ll create a detailed comparison report that reviews 30+ evaluation points, including: • True cost comparisons • Product quality and specifications • Performance and efficiency • Warranty coverage • Installation practices • Contractor reputation and review • Payment options • Durability and long-term value • License, bond, and insurance verification • Red flags to watch for Then we’ll review the analysis together by phone, so you can ask questions and get expert guidance before making a decision. Many homeowners save thousands of dollars and avoid major headaches with this step alone. Pricing Overview: Each 3 Company Bid Comparison - $150 (Add $50 for each additional company after the first 3.) Optional Services: Contractor Bid Coordination - $75 If you’d prefer, I can help you select and schedule three qualified contractors to provide your estimates. Send photos or videos of your project and I’ll match you with contractors best suited for the job. (Additional contractor scheduling after first 3 - $25 each) On-Site Project Analysis (Add-on) - $125 per visit If a project needs in-person evaluation, I can visit your home. (Example: you need someone to go in the attic/crawlspace or look at something not easily accessible for clear photos) On-site service available in: King County Pierce County Thurston County Snohomish County (Most consultations can be handled remotely with photos, videos, and a phone call.) 100% Money-Back Satisfaction Guarantee: If you’re not satisfied for any reason, you get all of your money back. No regrets! Why This Service Matters: Most homeowners rely on contractor salespeople, internet searches, or manipulated AI-generated results when making expensive home improvement decisions. Having an independent expert with no sales agenda can make the difference between a great project and a costly mistake. Call today to see if I can help you with your project. Once you try this service, you’ll never want to get three bids without having them independently analyzed first.
