We offer a range of estimating services to suit the different stages and scopes of your project
Preliminary Cost Estimates for Builders, Civil Contractors or Home Owners
This is an early-stage estimate designed to give you a general sense of project cost. It’s ideal when you’re still in the concept or design phase and want to know if the numbers stack up. We use indicative rates and general assumptions to give you a high-level overview of the likely costs.
Use this when:
You’re assessing project feasibility
You’re deciding between design options
You need a rough estimate for budgeting or finance discussions
Detailed Cost Estimates For Builders, Civil Contractors or Home Owners
Once your plans are more developed, we can provide a more refined, detailed estimate that breaks down costs across labour, materials, plant, and other categories. This type of estimate gives you a much clearer idea of your total outlay and is useful for tendering, planning, or securing finance.
Use this when:
Your plans are mostly finalised
You need more accurate pricing
You want to prepare a competitive quote or compare contractor pricing
Construction Estimates For Builders or Home Owners
A construction estimate is a deep dive into the expected costs across all construction phases and trades. We provide a comprehensive breakdown of work to be performed, including associated material and labour costs, so you can see exactly how your project budget will be allocated.
Use this when:
You want a full overview of build costs by trade
You’re preparing for procurement or project execution
You want to compare quotes from trades or subcontractors
Bill of Quantities For Builders, Civil Contractors, Home Owners or Suppliers
A Bill of Quantities is a structured, itemised list of materials, trades, and quantities required for a job. It’s typically used for tendering or project budgeting, and helps everyone involved stay on the same page. We measure directly from your plans and drawings to provide a clear and professional document.
Use this when:
You’re submitting or reviewing a tender
You’re working with multiple contractors
You want a standardised document for pricing and procurement
Trade Take-Offs For Builders or Home Owners
Our trade take-offs provide a detailed list of the individual trades involved in your project, including expected quantities and likely costs. This service helps you plan, compare pricing, and avoid over-ordering or material shortages.
Use this when:
You want to get quotes from specific trades
You’re ordering materials
You need to cross-check supplier quantities
