Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our construction estimating services, turnaround times, accuracy standards, and deliverables.

What is construction estimating and how does outsourcing it work? ▾
Construction estimating is the process of calculating the total cost of a construction project by quantifying materials, labor, equipment, and overhead from blueprints and specifications. Professional estimators use software like PlanSwift, Bluebeam, and RSMeans to produce accurate quantity takeoffs and cost estimates that contractors use to prepare competitive bids. By outsourcing to Estimate Services, you send us your plans, and our senior estimators return complete, bid-ready Excel spreadsheets and color-coded markups within 24 to 48 hours.
How much do construction estimating services cost? ▾
Construction estimating service costs vary based on project size, complexity, and scope of work. At Estimate Services, pricing is project-based and typically ranges from a few hundred dollars for residential trade estimates to several thousand for large multi-trade commercial developments. We provide a free, transparent flat-rate quote within 1 hour of receiving your plans so you know the exact cost before committing.
How accurate are your construction estimates and takeoffs? ▾
Our construction estimates achieve a proven 99% accuracy rate using industry-standard digital tools including PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu, and zip-code localized RSMeans pricing databases. We back every estimate with dedicated post-bid estimator support and have successfully completed over 5,000 projects for contractors across all 50 US states and Canada.
How long does it take to receive a completed estimate? ▾
Our standard turnaround time is 24 to 48 hours for most residential and single-trade commercial projects. We respond to all quote requests within 1 hour and offer priority rush delivery options for urgent bid deadlines. Complex multi-family, industrial, or multi-trade commercial projects are typically delivered in 3 to 5 business days depending on scope.
What construction trades and CSI divisions do you cover? ▾
We provide comprehensive estimating services across all 16 CSI MasterFormat (and 48 expanded) divisions, including Sitework and Civil Earthwork, Concrete and Rebar, Masonry, Structural Steel and Metals, Lumber and Framing, Thermal and Moisture Protection, Openings and Hardware, Drywall and Acoustical Ceilings, Interior Finishes, MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, HVAC), Fire Protection, and Low Voltage.
Why should contractors outsource their estimating to Estimate Services? ▾
Outsourcing your construction estimating saves 50% to 60% compared to hiring full-time in-house staff, eliminates software licensing expenses, eliminates overhead, gives you access to a multidisciplinary team of senior estimators, and allows your company to bid on 3x more projects concurrently without bottlenecking your operations.
