How we build your estimate

A Transparent, Repeatable Estimating Process

Every estimate we produce follows a documented workflow, so you get the same accuracy on a $50K renovation as you do on a $2M commercial project.

We start with your drawings.

Our estimators review your plans, specifications, and scope documents on-screen, flagging any gaps or ambiguities before we begin so nothing gets missed or double-counted.

We perform a quantity takeoff

Using digital takeoff tools, we measure every item linear feet, square feet, cubic yards, and counts — directly from your plans, organized by CSI division and line item.

We apply current, location-based pricing

Material and labor costs are pulled from RSMeans and our own maintained cost databases, adjusted to your project's zip code so the numbers reflect your market, not a national average.

We deliver a bid-ready file

You receive an itemized estimate covering material, labor, and equipment, in your preferred format (Excel, PDF, or your bid template), with clear notes and assumptions.

Estimating methods we use

Depending on the stage and scope of your project, we apply the method that fits — from early budget numbers to fully detailed bid estimates:

Detailed unit-price estimating — line-by-line quantities × current unit costs, for bid-ready accuracy
Assembly / systems estimating — grouped assemblies for faster mid-stage pricing
Parametric & square-foot estimating — for conceptual and preliminary budgets
Bottom-up estimating — for complex projects that need to be priced phase by phase
