Services We Provide

We offer a wide variety of commercial estimating services tailored to the unique needs of different professionals within the construction industry. Below is how we serve various key stakeholders:

For Commercial Contractors

  • Material and Labor Takeoffs: We prepare accurate material and labor take-offs using cutting-edge computer software. In takeoffs, we develop pricing and the number of labor hours by zip code to provide competitive and precise bids.
  • Bid Estimates: Bid preparation is also equally important to prepare a better bid that can help win bids easily. We help commercial contractors develop complex, accurate, professional bids comprising material, labor, equipment, and overhead costs.
  • Cost Management: Cost dynamics are a major factor that must be controlled well if profits are to be achieved in commercial construction. In this case, estimates can be made of the cost of labor, materials, and any equipment used while working on the project to ensure overhead and other costs do not exceed the set figure.
  • Change Order Management: We acknowledge the fact that changes are bound to arise in construction projects. Contractors are dealing with change orders, and our team helps manage change orders by providing updated estimates that incorporate the changes that the contractors would be making to the project.

For Commercial Developers

  • Preliminary Estimates: In development, it is essential to know whether a certain design is possible before implementing it. Our company offers initial sketches based on a feasibility analysis of the project, which empowers the developer to assess the viability of the project from the onset.
  • Pre-construction Estimates: Once the design is complete, we will have a more accurate pre-construction estimate that will provide contractor quotes. These estimates allow the developer to predict the cost of the project and whether it will be financially viable from the inception to the completion stage.

For Architects & Designers

  • Design-Phase Estimates: Cost estimates are crucial for architects and designers as they help to determine whether the designed project is affordable out of the client’s money. We provide schematic and design development estimates that enable you to control costs during the design process.
  • Budget Creation: Budget estimation is crucial for ensuring that project goals and objectives are met to fit the client’s demand. We offer services for making the budget, which includes all forms of costs that may be in the project, including the materials and labor, the permits, and the transportation, among others.

For Design-Build Firms

  • Early-Stage Design Estimates: For design-build firms, having reliable cost assessments during the early design stages is crucial for project planning. We provide detailed estimates at the 50% design completion stage, ensuring your design stays aligned with budgetary constraints.
  • Comprehensive Cost Breakdown: Our cost breakdowns consist of thorough estimates for labor, materials, and equipment, in addition to other indirect costs, including permits, logistics, and overhead. This lets design-build firms provide their clients with a complete look at the project’s financial predictions.
