Smart Estimation provides professional construction estimating and takeoff support for contractors, subcontractors, builders and developers.
Our services cover construction cost estimating, quantity takeoffs, material takeoffs, residential estimating, commercial estimating and MEP estimating. We turn your drawings into organized, bid-ready information so your team can price work accurately without tying up an in-house estimator on every tender.
Every project starts with a scope review and a written fee proposal. Nothing begins until you have approved both the price and the delivery date.
Typical delivery, confirmed upfront
Organized for direct submission
Every major trade covered
We don't sell materials or labour

ESTIMATION
Three principles that shape how every estimate leaving our desk is put together.
We would rather raise a question about an unclear drawing than guess and hand you a quantity you cannot rely on. Where documents are incomplete, we flag the gap and state the assumption we have used.
We work backwards from your bid date, confirm the delivery schedule in writing with the fee proposal, and tell you honestly upfront if a timeline is not realistic for the scope involved.
Every estimate is broken down clearly enough that you can explain any single line to a client, panel or funder — no black-box totals and no figures you cannot trace back to the drawings.
Four steps between sending your drawings and receiving a complete, organized estimate.
Share your drawings, specifications and bid deadline through our contact page or by email.
We review the documents, identify the trades involved and confirm exactly what is required.
You receive a project-based fee and delivery date. Work starts only once you approve it.
A detailed takeoff and cost breakdown arrives in editable spreadsheet and PDF format.
We scale the level of detail in each takeoff to match what your bid actually needs.
Full multi-division estimates and cost plans for tenders, with breakdowns ready to pass to your subcontractors.
Single-trade takeoffs for concrete, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, painting and other specialist packages.
New builds, extensions, renovations and conversions, priced at a level of detail a homeowner or lender can follow.
Early-stage cost plans to sense-check the viability of a scheme before you commit to it.

Quantities broken down trade by trade so you can price them directly or pass sections straight to subcontractors.

Estimates structured around your actual bid documents, with every assumption stated clearly upfront.

From a single-trade takeoff to a full multi-division project, across residential and commercial work.
Send us your drawings and bid deadline. We will review the scope and come back with a fee proposal and delivery date — with no obligation to proceed.
