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.

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.
