Residential Consulting Estimating

Residential consulting estimating provides a detailed cost estimate of labor, material and other components for all phases of building, remodeling, renovation and disaster reconstruction. Know the price of each project before you get started. Let us write an estimate for you. We are an estimate outsource provider for any size project nationwide.

We write estimates from blueprints or hand sketched drawing. Each professional estimate is written with software consisting of two elements: quantity survey and expense. The quantity survey is an organized list of the quantities of each type of material that goes into the structure. Quantity surveys are made from the construction plans and specifications. The estimate cost converts quantities into expense for labor, material, and equipment and adds subcontracted items, overhead, contingency, and profit to arrive at the total expense.
