How to compare quotes for refinance

For refinance, a fair comparison means identical scope. If one quote includes permits and cleanup and another does not, the cheaper total may not be cheaper at all.

What moves the price of refinance

Labour, materials and timing explain most of the gap between two quotes for refinance. Access and preparation often matter as much as the headline task, so a job that needs extra setup or a second visit costs more even when the base price looks identical.

Timing your refinance

Timing changes what you pay for refinance. Demand peaks around holidays, seasonal deadlines and the start of the busy season, and prices follow. Booking in a quieter window is one of the few levers that lowers the figure without cutting scope.
