The Truth About Contractor Material Receipts: Why Professional Contractors Don't Share Supplier Invoices
ATM Builders LLC does not provide supplier invoices, purchase confirmations, or vendor receipts. Our proposals are based on a fixed price for materials and services—not reimbursement of our actual costs.
Material pricing reflects far more than the supplier's invoice. It includes procurement, transportation, handling, warranty administration, inventory management, business overhead, and the responsibility we assume for furnishing those materials. Like most contractors, retailers, and service providers, our material pricing is based on our established pricing structure rather than our acquisition cost.
Our supplier pricing, discounts, rebates, and purchasing agreements are confidential business information and are considered proprietary.
Customers are provided with transparent pricing before work begins and always know the total cost of the project in advance. If a customer prefers complete control over material costs, we are happy to provide a labor-only proposal whenever practical, with the understanding that the customer assumes responsibility for purchasing, delivery, warranty claims, shortages, and project delays related to owner-supplied materials.
