How it Works
Send us your Plans
Forward us the bid invitation or attach the files to an email and send them to us. When sending us the plans ensure that you’re sending the full set including Architectural, Electrical, HVAC, Plumbing, etc. Include the specifications if available.
Quote and Approval
Once we receive the plans; we will review them and send you an email or give you a call letting you know the cost to perform the take-off as well as how long it will take us to turn it around. Upon agreeing to the quoted cost and turn-around time we will send you an invoice for the amount quoted. Once the dues are cleared, we will start working on it.
Review and Finalize
Once the take-off is complete, we will contact you to finalize it. We may have questions prior to this step regarding job site conditions, travel distance, prevailing wages, etc. After you’ve reviewed the job, we can make any adjustments required to help you fine tune the job and prepare it for bid. Upon finalization, you will have the final estimate for the job.
