01 / WHAT WE DO

Estimating services built for the bid deadline.

From a single takeoff to a full bid package, we handle the math so you can focus on landing the job and running the site.

001

Quantity Takeoffs

Precise material counts and measurements pulled directly from your drawings — concrete CY, steel tonnage, linear feet, square footage, and unit counts.

002

Cost Estimating

Detailed, line-item cost estimates with current regional material and labor pricing, equipment, overhead, and markup built in.

003

Bid Preparation

Complete, submission-ready bid packages formatted to CSI MasterFormat — clear, professional, and easy for owners and GCs to read.

004

Budget Estimates

Early-stage conceptual and ROM budgets for owners, developers, and design teams to validate feasibility before drawings are complete.

005

Material Lists

Clean, organized material schedules and purchase lists ready to hand straight to your suppliers for accurate quotes and ordering.

006

Value Engineering

Alternative material and methodology options that trim cost without cutting quality — so you can sharpen a bid that's coming in too high.

06 / WHAT CONTRACTORS SAY

Trusted on the bid line.

★★★★★

"Turned around a full commercial takeoff over a weekend so we could hit a Monday bid. We won the job. They've done every estimate for us since."

Marcus Reyes
GC · Reyes Builders
★★★★★

"As a one-truck concrete sub I could never justify an estimator. Now I bid twice as many jobs and the numbers actually hold up in the field."

Dani Whitfield
Concrete Sub · DW Flatwork
★★★★★

"Clean CSI format, no padding, no missed scope. Their value-engineering options shaved 8% off a bid we thought was already tight."
