What Drives Your Number Up or Down

Financing on Qualifying Projects

Payment plans are available on qualifying installs through the assigned contractor. Common structures include 6-month same-as-cash for smaller residential work and 12–36-month term financing for larger residential and commercial. All financing is subject to credit approval; specific terms, APR, and lender partner are discussed at quote time. See the financing disclosure for the terms of the referral relationship.

Warning about lowball bidsBids that come in materially below the middle of these ranges almost always achieve the number by cutting the base course, skipping geotextile, or dropping the mat thickness below spec. Those choices show up as failures at year 3–5. Ask for the written spec on every bid: base course thickness, mat thickness, compaction target, and whether fabric is included.
