Any final invoice or fee for the work approved by a Client based on an estimate will usually be close or similar to the estimated figure excluding variations to the project or changes in the scope. However, an estimate is not a fixed price and should not be viewed by a Client as such. An estimate is a guide to the final price only.
Webs TT will sometimes use an estimate during the early stages of project discussions or for ad-hoc works where Client and Webs TT have together approved this billing / engagement model.
Webs TT will usually follow up an estimate by providing a retainer invoice of invoice where the Client has given a general approval for the estimated fee or cost.
