OUR APPROACH TO CONSTRUCTION COST ESTIMATING SERVICES

We firmly believe that a precise estimate serves as a key instrument in establishing the budget and maintaining cost control during the course of the project. At our company, the estimation process begins with a thorough examination of the design documentation as well as an investigation of the building process, materials, location, permissions, logistics, and other elements that reveal the unanticipated expenditures that could affect the project cost estimate. The lead estimator checks the estimate to make sure it meets standards and is in line with project objectives once our trade-specific estimators have finished the quantity takeoff.

Our relationships with several suppliers, general contractors, and subcontractors in North America, along with a rigorous examination of bids, allowed us to create a cost database that is incredibly precise for estimating labor, material, and equipment prices.
