Many firms offer estimates. Few offer estimating with accountability. Here’s why contractors rely on us:
In construction, accuracy is everything. Even a minor miscalculation in material quantities or labor costs can lead to budget overruns and project delays. Our team uses advanced tools like RSMeans, PlanSwift, Bluebeam, and BIM (Level 0–3) to ensure every estimate is precise, whether it’s a residential remodel or a multi-million-dollar commercial project. This accuracy builds trust and allows contractors, architects, and investors to plan with confidence.
Time lost in preconstruction planning often results in higher costs during execution. By outsourcing your estimating to us, you eliminate the guesswork and hours spent crunching numbers manually. Our streamlined workflows not only shorten bid preparation time but also uncover cost-saving opportunities in materials, scheduling, and procurement. The result? Projects that move forward faster and stay on budget.
Our estimators aren’t just number crunchers — they are certified professionals with years of hands-on experience across CSI Divisions 01–34. Having worked alongside contractors, engineers, and project managers, they understand how drawings translate to real-world builds. This means our estimates reflect both technical precision and practical constructability insights.
We understand how critical it is to submit accurate bids on time. Missed deadlines often mean lost contracts. Our dedicated estimating team delivers within agreed timelines, even on complex projects. Whether you need a last-minute bid for a competitive tender or a detailed breakdown for long-term planning, we have the bandwidth and expertise to meet your schedule without compromising accuracy.
High-quality estimates shouldn’t come with inflated costs. We’ve structured our services to provide competitive pricing that gives you the best return on investment. By identifying cost efficiencies and value engineering opportunities, our pricing strategy often saves clients far more than the cost of our service itself. This balance of affordability and expertise makes us the smart choice for contractors and developers.
No two projects are the same — and neither are our estimates. Whether you’re managing a civil infrastructure project, a commercial high-rise, or a custom residential build, we tailor our estimating approach to fit your scope, drawings, and specifications. From material takeoffs (Each) to linear and square-foot calculations (SF/LF), every report is customized to support your unique project goals.
Our partnership doesn’t end with delivering an estimate. We provide 24/7 support so you can get clarifications, revisions, or consultations whenever you need them. From initial plan submission to final project handover, our team stays accessible and responsive — giving you confidence that you have an estimating partner who genuinely cares about your success.
Our concrete estimating services support contractors with precise cost and quantity breakdowns for foundations, slabs, driveways, and parking lots. Using CSI Division 03 standards and tools like Bluebeam, PlanSwift, and RSMeans, we provide detailed material takeoffs and labor models that reflect real jobsite conditions.
We consider rebar placement, formwork cycles, curing time, and local labor rates to ensure estimates are construction-ready. By partnering with us, you gain accurate budgets, minimized risk of overruns, and stronger bid competitiveness.
Our electric estimating services focus on CSI Division 26, covering wiring, conduits, panels, lighting, and low-voltage systems. We provide detailed takeoffs and installation sequencing that align with NEC codes and regional labor rates.
For projects like data centers or hospitals, we account for redundancy, grounding, and specialized electrical rooms, ensuring compliance and cost clarity.
Finishes define project quality and client satisfaction. Our Interior & Exterior Finishes Estimating Services span drywall, ceilings, flooring, paint, cladding, and specialty systems under CSI Division 09.
We prepare room-by-room takeoffs, considering fire ratings, moisture resistance, soundproofing, and coating systems. This ensures contractors avoid scope gaps and maintain cost control.
Our Masonry Estimating Services cover brick, block, stone, CMU, and veneer systems under CSI Division 04. We calculate block counts, mortar, reinforcement, flashing, and insulation, while also factoring in productivity rates and phasing.
This helps contractors bid confidently and avoid rework during construction.
MEP trades often carry the highest risks. Our MEP Estimating Services span CSI Divisions 21–28, covering HVAC, plumbing, fire protection, and electrical.
We deliver line-by-line takeoffs for ductwork, piping, insulation, and fixtures, using RSMeans and BIM to ensure compliance and accuracy. Complex scopes, like medical gas piping in hospitals, are carefully accounted for.
Under CSI Division 05, our Metal Estimating Services include structural steel, decking, and miscellaneous metals. We provide weight-based takeoffs (tons/pounds) and labor models for fabrication and erection.
Our methodology considers welding vs. bolting, crane usage, and erection sequencing, giving you actionable, fabrication-ready estimates.
Our Openings Estimating Services cover doors, windows, hardware, curtain walls, and skylights under CSI Division 08. We categorize openings by fire rating, material, and energy compliance, delivering procurement-ready schedules.
This helps avoid RFIs and ensures installation aligns with design intent.
Sitework determines how smoothly a project begins. Our Sitework Estimating Services cover excavation, grading, utilities, paving, and stormwater systems under CSI Division 31.
We provide cut-and-fill volumes, trenching lengths, erosion control, and haul distances, ensuring practical budgets and schedules.
Under CSI Division 07, we provide roofing, waterproofing, vapor barriers, insulation, and sealant estimates. Our estimates are system-specific, ensuring the right sequencing to avoid costly delays.
Our Lumber Takeoff Services cover framing, sheathing, and finishes under CSI Division 06. We deliver board counts, sheets, linear feet, and connectors, with waste factors applied.
By integrating PlanSwift and BIM, we provide subcontractors with clear, bid-ready framing packages.
