frequently asked questions

Construction estimation is a process to estimate the total cost of any type of construction project. A construction estimate includes costs of materials calculated during the takeoff process, along with labor expenses, equipment needed, taxes, insurance, and a contingency factor.

Estimators analyze the project plans, consider current local market prices of materials, and account for any other risk factors, e.g., contingency, to create a detailed and precise estimate.

  1. Contractors can benefit from outsourcing their construction estimating needs through precision and expertise of estimating companies, which reduces risk of underbidding or overbidding and incorrect material orders. These issues can lead to financial losses and delays in project completion, ultimately affecting their reputation and relationships with clients.
