    How Do We Prepare Reliable Maine Estimates?

    We start by collecting all project documents, including drawings, plans, and specifications, and collaborate with your team to gain a clear understanding of the project’s scope. Once we have reviewed, the files are sent to our dedicated Maine estimating team.

    Next, we use advanced software to calculate every material and component across all trades. Each quantity is carefully verified to ensure your pre-bid estimates are precise, eliminating oversights that could impact your proposal.

    We then evaluate labor and material costs specific to Maine, factoring in regional pricing, zip code variations, and local market conditions.
    Every estimate undergoes a thorough review by a senior estimator to confirm completeness, accuracy, and alignment with project requirements, giving you confidence that your bid is professional and ready for submission.

    Finally, we deliver your estimate in user-friendly formats like Excel or PDF, clearly showing material, labor, and overhead breakdowns. This helps contractors streamline their bidding process and make informed decisions before submitting proposals.
