Depending on the type of wood and other specifications, a permanent wheelchair ramp used to reach a height of 30 inches (30 feet long) can cost between $3,500 and $8,000, or between $100 and $250 per linear foot.
A turnkey contract is a business arrangement in which a project is delivered in a completed state. Rather than contracting with an owner to develop a project in stages, the developer is hired to finish the entire project without owner input.
A turnkey contract also provides more time for an owner to seek financing and investors before he is required to pay for a completed project. These agreements also save inexperienced owners from making difficult construction decisions, leaving these decisions in the hands of the developer or builder.
