An estimate is akin to a rough approximation of the cost of a project. It is a preliminary assessment that requires minimal time and effort, which is why the price quoted is not always precise.
A quote is a part of the binding agreement. The process of creating the quote involves a meticulous analysis of the project, which can take anywhere from hours to days. The job must be drafted (drawn on the computer using CAD), detailing all the specifics of the hardware, colors, and benchtop to arrive at an accurate price.
