Why does KBF by Audi require that a client provide a budget for his/her project in the inital interview phase before scheduling an in-home consultation estimate?

Great Question! Consider this: Would you go on a job interview without FIRST knowing the job requirements or salary offered? Would you purchase a vehicle without FIRST finding out how much it costs? The likely answer to both of those questions is: Absolutely not! That is why we require a budget up front. Our Clients are so much more than a job or a purchase to KBF by Audi, and if your remodeling needs complement our own, we will put in 110% effort to make sure you happy and satisfied with our company!
