Frequently asked questions

How much does wholesale cost?
Most wholesale falls between $1,525 and $5,946, with a typical figure near $3,011 per job. The low end is a straightforward job with no surprises; the high end covers complex scope, premium materials or urgent timing. In Durham, that is worth confirming with a local provider before you commit.
What affects the price of wholesale?
Providers price risk as well as work. A job with unknowns costs more to guarantee, which is why two quotes for the same request can differ so much. The answer can shift with the Durham market, so check locally.
Is Wholesale cheaper in smaller cities?
Often, but not always. Smaller markets can carry a travel or availability premium that offsets a lower local rate, so it is worth checking a nearby city before assuming the lowest published figure applies to you. It is worth testing that against a couple of quotes in Durham.
How many quotes should I get for wholesale?
Two or three written quotes are enough to see the real market range. Compare the same scope side by side, and ask each provider what is excluded and what would change the price after the quote is accepted. Local providers in Durham can confirm how that applies to your area.
