Our Simple Yet Effective Concrete Estimating Process
Estimating concrete costs does not have to be complicated. Our reliable concrete estimation process is designed to give accurate numbers quickly without any confusion.
We start by reviewing your project drawings and specifications carefully. Every detail, from slabs and footings to walls and columns, is considered to make sure nothing is missed. Using this information, we calculate precise concrete quantity takeoff, labor requirements, and equipment needs. We use software, like Planswift, Bluebeam, AccuBid, Quest Estimating, and On-Screen Takeoff to ensure 100% accuracy.
Next, we apply regional pricing data for labor and materials using RSMeans. This makes sure your estimates are realistic and align with the local market rates. Then, our estimators double-check numbers to minimize errors and avoid costly surprises.
Even though our process is straightforward, it results in the client getting bid-winning estimates.
