Common Specimen Price List:
My pricing is based on the utmost quality. If you are here looking for the cheapest option, you have not found it. Pricing is based on hours worked and supplies needed, not what the guy down the street may or may not charge. If the price is listed on this website the day you call, that price will always be honored. 50% down payment is required for all work to begin, unless previous arrangements have been agreed upon.
