HOW IT WORKS
We are an estimation company, so we provide estimating services to the clients. We take a look at your construction drawings and perform the quantity takeoff to calculate the material and quantities, so after that we provide the numbers so you submit the bid and win the project. We break down the materials, labor, equipment and everything is listed out in a super detailed spreadsheet, which you get back in 10-48 hours.
Everyone in the construction industry, including architects, contractors, developers, general contractors, and homeowners who need to know what they're gonna be up against cost-wise before they put in a bid or break ground.
An estimate takes the quantities from your drawings (like how much concrete you need or how much pipe you need to lay down) and adds the cost to it. A takeoff just measures those quantities. Either way you can go with it.
We're talking 95% or better. Still, we are humans, but we always aim to provide accuracy. We've got a senior estimators who reviews every one of our estimates before we send them out, making sure they're right.
GETTING STARTED
PDFs of your drawings. The more detailed the better, but if you've just got a rough idea of what you want we can still work with it.
Just email them to us or you can upload them through our website. Let us know what the project is for, what the deadline is, and we'll get back to you with a quote in no time.
No worries at all. We can give you a preliminary estimate that's got some built in contingencies, and as you get closer to finishing up we can refine the numbers.
Most of the time it's 24-48 hours, but if you're starting a big commercial project it might take a bit longer - 3-7 days. We can also do rush service if you're on a tight deadline.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
An Excel spreadsheet with all the itemized details, like how much material you need, how many labor hours there are, and all the totals. Plus we'll mark up the drawings in colour so you can see exactly what we came up with.
Yes we do. If you send us your template, we'll fill it in and send it back to you. Saves you the hassle of reformatting and it'll all tie in with your systems.
PRICING & PAYMENT
Normally, our pricing starts with $150 CAD, but it still depends on the size and scope of the project. We'll give you an exact quote before we do any work, so there's no surprises.
No, we don't charge anything for providing the quotes. We'll give you a quote free of cost and if you decide you want to go ahead and work with us you can pay us. Otherwise there's no charge.
We have multiple payment methods you can pay with Credit card, debit, e-transfer, and PayPal.
Our services come with unlimited revisions if the revisions are within the same scope we dont charge any bucks, but if there is an addendum, then we charge a minor amount.
CANADA-SPECIFIC
Yes you are. We submit the estimate with the National Building Code, provincial variations, energy codes, and all that jazz. We make sure our estimates are up to snuff for where you are in Canada.
We use RSMeans and local databases to ensure we add the exact ZIP code price. We also get quotes from the supplier.
All Canadian provinces - we've got a stronger presence in Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta and Quebec
