A Dedicated Cost Estimator for Your Company

One experienced estimator assigned to your projects, working to your standards every month, without the cost of a full-time hire. Plans start from $1,500 per month.

Your Estimating Partner

Like Having an Estimator on Staff

Contractors who bid every week know the problem: there are always more bid invitations than hours to price them. Hiring a full-time estimator means recruitment, salary, benefits, software and training, and the workload rarely stays steady. A dedicated cost estimator from our team gives you the same consistent support without those fixed costs.

Your estimator learns your company: the trades you self-perform, the markups you use, the format of your bid sheets and the subcontractors you prefer. Over time the estimates start to look and feel like they came from inside your office.

You send projects as they come in, and your estimator handles takeoffs, pricing and revisions. See our pricing page for how the monthly plan works.

Best Fit

Who Benefits Most From a Dedicated Estimator

This service suits general contractors and subcontractors who bid regularly and want consistent results, such as growing firms that are not ready to hire a full-time estimator, or established firms whose in-house team is overloaded.

It also works well for companies entering new markets, where an estimator familiar with local pricing helps the team bid confidently from day one.
