We will also give monthly retainer fees to contractors that place regular bids.Contractors who regularly bid are offered project pricing and monthly retainer fees. Please inform us of the normal size of your project and the type of trade that you are using and we will be able to recommend the most suitable engagement model.
We also are more likely to deliver more quickly and at a lower per project cost for retainer clients, as our team gets familiar with their drawing conventions, preferred drawing software output and typical scope assumptions over time.

Book a Meeting
Prefer to discuss it first? Please call one of our senior estimators for a quick meeting through our scheduling link. Before you commit, we’ll discuss your project type, how we do things and any pricing, turn around, or revision questions that you may have.
These calls are also ideal for talking with the estimator about recurring estimating support, if you’re thinking about outsourcing an estimator vs hiring an in-house estimator.
What to Include With Your Request
To get the fastest and best quote, submit your entire plan set and bid with specifications, any addenda and your bid due date. The longer it takes us to go through the process of submitting, the more precise our turn-around estimate and pricing will be.
If the site conditions are exceptional (e.g. limited access, demolition required, phased occupancy etc.) then please make sure this is stated on the form as this may have an impact on costs and the trades that we may use on the estimate.
After You Submit Your Request
We reply to you the same day we receive your request with scope of work, clarification (if necessary) and a definite price and delivery date. It’s not an auto-quote site, all submissions are reviewed by a human with construction estimating experience.
