Upload the quote and QuoteScore scores it 0 to 100 against regional pricing benchmarks, line by line, free and with no signup. Across the 156 electrical quotes QuoteScore has scored, 27.6% scored under 50, meaning at least one line was priced above the normal market range for that job and region, so ask for a line-item breakdown before signing. Rule of thumb: 65 or higher is within the normal range, 50 to 64 is worth one competing bid before you sign, and under 50 has specific overpriced lines to negotiate by name.
Before you sign an electrical quote
An electrical quote usually lists panel or circuit work by amperage, fixtures and devices by count, wire and conduit by run, permit and inspection fees, and labor in hours or by task. QuoteScore reads the quote you already have, as a photo, a PDF or pasted text, splits it into those lines and compares each one against the regional benchmark range for that item, then returns a 0 to 100 fairness score that names the lines priced above market.
Of the 156 electrical quotes scored so far, the average fairness score is 63.4 out of 100 and 27.6% scored under 50, which means at least one line was priced above the normal market range for that work and region. The count updates as new quotes are scored.
The lines that most often push an electrical quote above market are a panel upgrade priced far above the range for its amperage, labor hours that do not match the number of circuits or devices listed, permit fees padded above the municipal schedule, and a lump sum with no device count. Before you sign, ask for the device and circuit count behind the price, the permit fee on the municipal schedule, and the hourly rate.
The check is free, needs no signup, and the file is deleted the moment the analysis completes. A score under 65 comes with the specific lines to negotiate and the benchmark range each one was measured against, so you can disagree with it.
