Quote with confidence. Deliver with precision.

As a civil contractor, you’re constantly balancing quoting for new work with delivering existing projects to a high standard. Between tight deadlines, complex scopes, and evolving site conditions, finding time to put together accurate quotes can be incredibly challenging.

That’s where we come in. At Civilised Estimating, we offer detailed civil estimating services that save you time, reduce your overhead, and improve your chances of winning the job — without sacrificing the quality of your current work.

Our civil estimating solutions include takeoffs, labour and material costings, trade breakdowns, and everything you need to submit a clear, competitive, and professional quote. Whether you’re tendering for bulk earthworks, drainage installations, roadworks, or general site prep, we work with real-world data and current pricing to keep you accurate and competitive.

By outsourcing your estimating to us, you can reduce turnaround times, avoid over- or under-quoting, and stay focused on completing your projects safely and efficiently.

Reliable, professional estimating to support your next build.

As a builder, managing active sites while responding to new tender opportunities can be overwhelming. You know how important it is to submit a clear and competitive quote — but that process takes time, attention, and accuracy. When you’re already coordinating trades, clients, and site challenges, it’s hard to fit it all in.

Let Civilised Estimating take care of the numbers so you can take care of the build.

We provide building estimating services that are tailored to the way you work — from new homes and renovations to multi-residential developments and commercial projects. Our team can handle detailed quantity takeoffs, material and labour cost estimates, and fully itemised breakdowns that help you price with precision and clarity.

By outsourcing your estimating, you gain back valuable hours each week while maintaining accuracy and professionalism in every quote. Whether you need a basic estimate or a fully documented tender package, we’ll deliver what you need, when you need it.

Clarity and confidence before you build.

If you’re planning a new home, a renovation, or an extension, one of the biggest challenges is understanding what it will actually cost. Many homeowners go into the building process unsure of how to budget or where their money will go — which often leads to compromise, delays, or unexpected expenses down the line.

At Civilised Estimating, we help homeowners bridge that gap between ideas and reality with clear, independent cost estimates. Our team can review your plans and give you a professional breakdown of expected labour, materials, and trade costs — so you can plan ahead with confidence.

We can help you understand where your money will be spent, avoid underestimating your budget, communicate more clearly with builders and designers and plan your project timeline more effectively

Whether you’re working with an architect, going the owner-builder route, or just exploring your options, our estimates can help you make smarter decisions from day one. No confusing jargon or vague ballpark figures — just real-world, practical cost guidance from experienced professionals.

Faster, clearer supply quotes based on real project data.

As a supplier, your ability to provide fast and accurate material quotes can have a major impact on your customer relationships — and your bottom line. But when customers bring you architectural drawings or incomplete information, your team often has to spend hours translating plans into quantities before you can even issue a quote.

That process eats up time, creates stress, and can lead to errors or delays.

That’s where Civilised Estimating can support your business. We work with material suppliers to provide accurate, efficient quantity takeoffs that convert drawings into clear, order-ready data. From concrete and timber to structural steel, plumbing fixtures, or roofing, we can help you quantify customer needs quickly and accurately.

Benefits for your team include reducing the time spent interpreting drawings, improving the speed and accuracy of your quotes, an increase in customer satisfaction and trust, and freeing up more time to focus on logistics and service instead of admin.

Our estimating services can be used as a one-off or integrated into your regular sales workflow. We’ll help you take the pressure off your internal team while enhancing your overall service offering.
