What’s included in a foundation estimate?
A typical foundation estimate includes quantities and costs for excavation, footings, grade beams, slabs, rebar, formwork, concrete and labor based on your drawings and local code requirements.
Do you estimate for both shallow and deep foundations?
Yes, we estimate for all types, including shallow footings, mat slabs, caissons, pile foundations and raft systems depending on soil reports and project scope.
How accurate are your concrete and rebar takeoffs?
Our takeoffs are done using digital tools with precise area, volume and linear measurements. We apply Canadian wastage factors and bar bending schedules to ensure accuracy.
Can you provide estimates for frost-protected foundations?
Yes. We account for frost depth, insulation requirements and climate conditions across Canadian provinces when estimating frost-protected shallow foundations.
Do you include waterproofing and insulation in your estimate?
Yes, we include foundation waterproofing membranes, damp-proofing, insulation (exterior/interior) and protection board if specified in your drawings or requested.
What codes and standards do you follow for foundation estimating in Canada?
We reference CSA A23.1/A23.3, NBC Part 4 and 9, provincial building codes and geotechnical recommendations when preparing foundation cost estimates.
Can you estimate costs for ICF (Insulated Concrete Form) foundations?
Yes, we provide takeoffs and pricing for ICF walls including block quantity, concrete fill, bracing systems and installation labor.
How long does it take to deliver a foundation estimate?
Turnaround time is 1-3 business days depending on project complexity. Rush services available for urgent bids or fast-track projects.
Do you estimate for renovation or underpinning work?
Yes, we estimate underpinning, retrofit foundations and additions jacketing, trenching and support systems.
Why outsource foundation estimating?
Saves you time, reduces bid errors and ensures your estimates are code compliant — so you can focus on execution and win more.
