Why do deposits matter for service businesses?

Deposits cover costs incurred before payment, including materials, reserved slots and early work, while confirming customer commitment. A cancelled job without a deposit can leave you out of pocket.

What deposit percentage is normal?

It varies by industry and risk: cover upfront costs plus some protection for your time. Our own projects usually require 50% before work starts.
