Estimating support built around the way contractors bid.
Construction Cost Estimating

COMMON QUESTIONS
Before you send the drawings.
How quickly can an estimate be completed?
Suitable standard projects can typically be completed in 24–48 hours. Larger, incomplete or highly detailed scopes may require more time, confirmed after review.
Can you use our own labor and supplier rates?
Yes. Contractor-provided pricing can be incorporated when supplied in a usable format and agreed during scope review.
Do you estimate individual trades?
Yes. A takeoff can cover one specialty trade or multiple construction divisions depending on the requested scope.
What files do we receive?
Deliverables may include Excel estimate sheets, quantity takeoffs, drawing markups, assumptions and exclusions as agreed.
