Frequently asked questions

Across the 5 preschools we rank in Pittsburgh, PA, published starting prices run from $150 (Fox Hill Preschool) up to $200 (Arsenal Family & Childrens Center), with the middle of the field near $200.

Why do preschools prices vary so much in Pittsburgh?

Two quotes for the "same" job often price different work. For preschools, the biggest drivers are the scope and size of the job, the grade of materials used, permits and inspections where they apply, how accessible the work area is. A low number is frequently a quote that quietly left one of these out, which is why the spread between our cheapest and priciest pick here is $50.

How do I get an accurate preschools quote in Pittsburgh?

Write down exactly what you want done, hand the identical scope to two or three preschools, and insist on an itemized estimate rather than a lump sum. For anything beyond a basic service call, a real bid needs eyes on the job, not a number over the phone.
