For subcontractors
Where the estimate earns its fee.
A subcontractor wins or loses work on one division, so that division has to be measured the way the trade actually builds it. We take off your scope in your units, price it with your labor rates and markups, and return the marked-up plans so your foreman can see exactly what was counted.
Owners who are also the estimator
Get the measuring off your evenings so you can run the work.
Losing bids by small margins
Accurate quantities mean less padding and tighter, defensible numbers.
Scope creep after award
Inclusions and exclusions written down before you sign.
What you receive
Everything you need to bid. Nothing you have to redo.
Every estimate ships as the same four-part package, on the first job and the fiftieth.
