Talk to our teamConstruction estimating services for Canadian contractors
Estimating Canada prepares quantity takeoffs and cost estimates for contractors who would rather spend their week winning and building jobs than counting outlets and measuring drywall. Send us your drawings and specs and you get back a clear, line-by-line estimate you can price from.
We work from Toronto and cover Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, Alberta and the other provinces. Our team has completed more than 22,000 estimates, roughly 4,000 for general contractors and 18,000 for subcontractors, so most plan sets we receive look familiar.
| What you can send us
| What you get back
| How fast
Small jobs are normally back in about 4 to 6 hours. Larger projects take between 6 and 48 hours, depending on their size and how urgent your bid date is. Tell us the deadline when you send the plans and we will confirm what is realistic before we start.
| The tools we use
We take off in the software the industry uses: Bluebeam, PlanSwift, On-Screen Takeoff and STACK, with Excel for the final sheets. You do not need to own any of it. You receive PDF and Excel files.
| Why contractors lose bids they should have won
The most common problem we see is pricing from a profit margin instead of from the market. A number gets added on top of a rough cost, and the bid ends up either too high to win or too low to make money. Labour is where it usually goes wrong. A careful quantity count and current labour rates fix both problems before the bid goes out.
| Pricing that follows the province
A job in Calgary does not price like a job in Montreal. Winter protection, freight distance, labour agreements, provincial codes and holdback rules all change the number. We price for the province and the season, not for a national average. We also work with union and non-union labour, using prevailing wage rates where they apply.
| Teams in English, French and Spanish
Our estimators work in separate English, French and Spanish teams, so a Quebec contractor can receive a report in French and a Spanish-speaking crew can read the scope in their own language. We measure and report in square feet and imperial units, in metric, or both.
