Stuff Frisco cabinet contractors ask before they sign up
Does this respect TX code, or do I have to re-cut every quantity?
TX doesn't license cabinetry at the state level, so the variability comes from local amendments. Quantities are correct; you adjust crew rates and local permit assumptions in the bid summary.
How do you handle counting cabinets from kitchen plans?
The model reads the plan once, counts symbols against your assembly library, and surfaces the count for review. You override anything that looks off before it hits the quote. For sports work in Frisco, the typical correction is one or two assemblies — not redoing the whole thing.
What about site conditions?
Build the local condition into your assembly defaults once, and it carries forward to every Frisco bid afterward.
How much does a permit add to a cabinetry job around here?
Plan on $175–$4,000 in Frisco, with review running 2–5 weeks. Build that into general conditions so a slow plan-check doesn't eat your overhead. Insurance and bond are separate carrying costs.
