FAQs

Our full contract take-offs provide a comprehensive summary that includes the project size, detailed labor costs, costs of tradespeople, projected profit margins, and a complete scope of work to ensure all aspects of your project are thoroughly evaluated.

We apply two methodologies depending on project needs: a materials measure with a constant labor rate for bulk projects or using direct builder experience to estimate labor hours for specific tasks, ensuring accuracy and practical applicability.

P&Gs cover essential but often overlooked project aspects such as project management, site operations, and logistics. These are crucial for a realistic cost assessment and typically comprise 7-11% of the total project cost.

We don’t offer fixed price contracts; we will price your project and build a pricing sheet to approximately 80% of the project. We then do need your assistance to ensure our costs meet your business overheads and operating style. [E.g., how we have priced our labor matches your labor allowances within the company. Everyone operates and works differently.]

 

We detail and order subtrade costs according to the project phase they belong to and measure quantities to apply market rates or experience-based rates, accounting for about 45% of total new build costs.

Absolutely. We tailor each report to align with your specific business practices and overheads. Post-delivery, we discuss with you to ensure the report meets your needs, making necessary adjustments.

We aim to deliver detailed proposals within five working days, with an additional 1-2 days for any revisions or adjustments based on your feedback.

While we do not offer fixed price contracts, our reports aim to get as close as possible to a fixed price layout. We tailor our spreadsheets to reflect accurate and detailed cost estimates tailored to your needs.

Our team combines detailed site assessments, up-to-date construction cost data, and thorough project analysis to ensure accuracy. We verify each element of the cost report and stay updated with current market rates and material costs.
