For owners & investors
Where the estimate earns its fee.
Owners and investors need someone measuring the work who has no interest in who builds it. We provide independent estimates, review contractor pricing and change orders, and explain in plain terms where the cost and the risk sit in a project.
Not knowing if a bid is fair
An independent measured estimate to compare against.
Change orders without backup
Each change priced from the drawings, with quantities shown.
Capital planning across properties
Repair and improvement budgets you can rank and schedule.
What you receive
Everything you need to bid. Nothing you have to redo.

FAQ
Questions from owners & investors.
Talk to an estimator
Not a salesperson. Same-day answers on working days.
+1 518 974 7222[email protected]Are you independent of contractors?
Yes. We do not build, and we are not paid by the contractors whose pricing we review.
Can you budget improvements across several properties?
Yes. Each property is estimated separately and rolled into one capital plan.
Will the report make sense to non-builders?
Yes. Every review comes with a plain-language summary of findings and risk.
Can you use our cost book and labor rates?
Yes, and we prefer it. Your historical costs reflect your crews and your suppliers better than any published average. Send the template and we work inside it.
How does pricing work?
Pricing is per project and quoted before any work starts — no retainer, no minimum volume and no subscription.
