DO YOUR CALCULATIONS! Originally had a quote(24x24x6 Slab) for X amount of dollars. Few weeks later went to get another quote (16x24x4) and went to tell me its the same price. I asked why and he sent me some rough cross section of the perimeter and said it was the same amount of concrete. He then said he made a mistake on the original quote in terms of the dimensions for the perimeter. After sending emails with calculations to prove to him that it was about 33% less concrete on the "corrected" original quote. Then said "not interested". Wasn't even willing to take on the business at his quoted
