“Act as an experienced plumbing contractor preparing to quote a complex job. I have a site visit coming up to quote [describe the job: e.g., 'full master bathroom remodel including moving the shower, replacing all fixtures, and relocating drain lines']. Create a detailed pre-quote preparation plan that includes: (1) all measurements and dimensions I need to take, (2) questions I should ask the customer about their needs, timeline, and budget, (3) potential problems or complications to inspect for that could affect the price, (4) materials and fixtures I need to discuss or specify, and (5) any permits, access issues, or coordination with other trades I should clarify. Format this as a simple checklist I can print or save on my phone and bring to the site visit.”
