Every project is unique so we ask our customers to send us the
plans or FTP link site. General price ranges for smaller
projects can run in the $200-500 range, mid-sized projects can
be in the $500-800 range, and large projects $1000+ but this is
just a ballpark.
Our pricing is based on a per-project or monthly basis, not
hourly based. We are perfect for busy contractors that need an
“On-Demand” estimate completed. Mostly contractors bid only a
few projects per month and we tend to be more affordable than
hiring a full time in-house estimator.
Yes! email to estimates@1stestimator.com to see examples of
estimates we’ve done for other clients. You can ask for
Developers, General Contractors, Subcontractors, Architects,
Residential Projects, Electrical, Drywall and Framing, Painting,
and any trade you wish to request.
Our Engineers typically complete a project in two to five days
but if a larger & complex jobs comes in so we always check back
with our client if there is a rush on the project. If so, then
we accommodate them by putting a dedicated team of Engineers
onto it with a little more fee to shield the overtime. We always
try to submit an estimate a day or two before bid date.
We are a blueprint estimation company so most of our project are
based on drawing and specifications, but based on years of
experience we are capable of performing assumption based
estimates usually for bath and kitchen remodeling and addition
estimates.
The combination of technology with our expert estimators enables
us to become accurate and competitive on quality that’s why we
claim 99% accuracy on our material takeoffs. We never compromise
on the quality of work.
