On-demand estimating support — when and how you need it.

Estimate Assist is a new service designed to make bidding easier, faster, and less stressful — whether you need a full estimate built from plans, a quick review before you submit, or overflow support during a busy bid week.

What is Estimate Assist?

Estimate Assist offers flexible support for subcontractors, suppliers, and general contractors who need:

  • A professional second set of eyes on estimates

  • Help pricing unfamiliar or complex scopes

  • A complete estimate built from plans and scope

  • Extra hands during peak bid times

  • Training for new hires

  • Help finding projects that are worth your time

It’s estimating help — without hiring full-time.


Ways Estimate Assist Can Help

Here are a few ways Estimate Assist fits into your workflow:

  • Double-Check Before Submitting a Bid
    Get peace of mind with a final review from a professional estimator.
  • Build a Complete Estimate From Plans
    Send us the plans and scope — we’ll handle the takeoff, apply your pricing, and return a ready-to-send estimate.
  • Support During Busy Bid Weeks
    Let us take on some of the load when deadlines stack up.
  • Confidence in New or Complex Trades
    We’ll help price scopes you don’t typically handle, so you can bid with confidence.
  • Train New Hires
    Our estimators can help onboard and mentor your junior team members with real projects and expert feedback.
  • Prioritize the Right Jobs
    Let us help you identify projects that are a fit — and skip the ones that aren’t.
