Your elevator company quoted the cab interior. The general contractor added their markup. The elevator consultant signed off. Nobody in that chain works for you.

​

Vertice is the only independent elevator cab consultancy run by someone who has owned the companies doing the quoting. We know the real costs — fabrication, materials, labor, install — because we've priced thousands of cabs from the inside.

​

What we do for owners and developers:

​

• Cost and bid review — line-item analysis of cab quotes. We routinely find 20–40% buried in markups and padding.

• Contractor-direct pricing strategy — structuring the buy so you pay fabricator pricing, not stacked margins.

• Value engineering that doesn't look like it — keeping the lobby-level impression while taking real cost out of the build.

• Modernization planning — your cabs are the most visible 50 square feet of your asset. We scope upgrades that move rents and perception, not just spend.

• Damage & insurance claim evaluation — flood, fire, vandalism, construction damage: independent assessment of what repair actually costs, for owners and adjusters.
