When you need professional estimates, accuracy and reliability are key. Our team provides detailed, transparent estimations tailored to your specific project needs. We ensure you have a clear understanding of scope, costs, and timelines, helping you make informed decisions with confidence.

Our services are useful for anyone who needs a material takeoff or a construction estimate. This includes the private as well as public contractors. Commercial builders, residential, and the civil contractors that are large or small; regardless of the fact if they need single estimate or multiple estimates are beneficiaries of our services. Moreover, if there are contractors that do not possess enough construction volume to afford a full time estimator may hire us as well. All the contractors who have cut off their estimating staff following the drop in the construction industry have already hired us and can always hire us.

Our clients may email to us the digital blueprints. We accept CAD Drawings as well as PDF plans. If you are using an online room for the same, we can download your plans from there. Local contractors can email to us or call us; we will cordially pick up the blueprints free of cost.

In one line, the answer to the question is that it depends on the type and size of the project. For instance, if it is about a lumber estimate of a single or a double story residential building, we provide it within 24 to 36 hours from when we receive the plan. Similarly, when it is a single or a two story residential home quantifying slab via lintel; then again we take almost 24 to 36 hours. As far as commercial projects are concerned, it varies from project to projects depending upon the uniqueness, complexity, and size.

Usually we use Microsoft Excel for the preparation of quantity surveys and estimates. However, we also proficiently use the Quest Residential Estimator, and Plan Swift. You may also send us your Excel spreadsheets having your cost codes along with the material codes. We will insert the quantities that we will estimate in to your spreadsheets. Then you may send the same list to your vendor for the purpose of pricing. You may then import the sheet in to your estimating software system for budgets.

We provide the list in UniFormat or CSI MasterFormat. It may also depend on how you have phased your work i.e. “Footer Steel” will have all the materials that will be required for the said phase of construction. Or if you need a customized estimate, we will gladly do that for you too.

We take pride in being experts in estimating the building costs. Above all, we save money of our clients because they do not need a full time estimator. At the same time, there is no need to make investment in expensive estimate software. Most of the contractors buy expensive software following the recommendation of the estimator. All of a sudden, you find that the estimator is not employee of the company anymore and you are left all alone stuck with the estimating software which you do not even know how to use. Considering the current economic situation and downhill movement in the construction industry, it is not at all a wise decision to hire another professional employee on the payroll. The most effective and the easiest way are to outsource your estimating work. All we will expect of you would be a set of detailed plans.
