Pricing adjusts to your bid volume — schedule a 20-minute Bid Strategy Call and we’ll provide a tailored monthly rate based on your project mix, software tools, and bidding frequency. No contracts. No per-sheet charges. No hidden costs.
Estimator Pricing Options
Most contractors judge their estimator by bids completed, projects won, and estimate accuracy — not hours worked. That’s how we structure our pricing. Choose the plan that fits your bid volume.
Get a skilled estimator who understands your trade, works within your existing process, and helps your team price more projects without the overhead of adding another full-time employee.
Why Choose Custom Pricing?
A residential framer handling 8 bids each month doesn’t require the same estimating support as a commercial GC managing 40. A flat pricing tier can overcharge smaller contractors while undervaluing the support larger contractors need. We price your estimator around three factors: monthly bid volume, software stack, and project complexity. It’s the most practical and fair approach to construction estimating support.
