• Estimates

The first step to ensure you have the most accurate quote is to provide all the required, requested, and relevant information asked by your chosen exhibition stand builder from the beginning. Giving all the requested documents asked by your stand builder not only makes the quoting process easier. But also ensures that both you and your stand builder have accurate costing to go by.

In case there is a delay in the process.  Then it can result in additional hours being charged for the build on site. To protect your budget from such additional costs. You have to ask your stand builder to take steps to eradicate the chance of any additional costs occurring.

• Design Changes

Exhibition stand design companies are subjective and vary according to the different preferences of everyone.

Is there any clause related to the extra charges for any additional charges in the stand? Some exhibitors get happy and satisfied with one design. While others would want to go through multiple rounds of changes until they get every aspect as they want or they might have a different display stand ideas in their mind that they want to give a trial.
