READY-TO-USE PROMPT

Call [contractor name(s) and phone number(s)] about my home improvement project: [brief project description]. Explain the scope and ask for a written estimate. Then send a follow-up email to each contractor with [attached photos] and the project details so they can estimate without me being on site. Constraints: do not accept or agree to any quote above $[budget] without asking me; do not commit to a start date. Expected output: a comparison table of the estimates (contractor, quote amount, what's included, timeline), and flag any contractor that didn't respond. Confirmation steps: if a contractor asks questions you can't answer, note them down and bring them to me rather than guessing.

Check the result

Before relying on the output or confirming irreversible actions, run these targeted verification checks:

✓Confirm numerical values (prices, refund amounts, line items) match source documents.

✓Check that date ranges and time zone conversions align properly.

✓Ensure outbound messages or authorization forms do not contain hallucinated facts.
