Our Construction Estimating Services
We prepare detailed construction cost estimates for projects at different stages. This can include early budget estimates, tender estimates, cost plans, and full project estimates. We review the drawings, measure the scope, and prepare a clear breakdown of materials, labour, trades, equipment, preliminaries, and project allowances. This helps you plan the budget, review pricing, and make better decisions before construction starts.
Our quantity takeoff services help you understand what materials and trade items are needed for the job. We measure quantities from architectural drawings, structural drawings, MEP plans, civil drawings, schedules, and specifications. This can include concrete, steel, masonry, roofing, flooring, painting, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, landscaping, and external works. A clear takeoff helps you price the work, check supplier quotes, and reduce missed scope.
We prepare material takeoffs for builders, subcontractors, suppliers, and project teams that need accurate quantities before ordering or pricing. This can include measured quantities for concrete, reinforcement, timber, steel, plasterboard, tiles, paint, roofing, pipework, cabling, fixtures, fittings, and other construction materials based on the project scope. Material takeoffs help with procurement, supplier pricing, and budget control.
A bill of quantities gives you a clear list of measured work items. We prepare BOQs that can be used for tender pricing, subcontractor comparison, supplier quotes, and project cost review. Each BOQ is structured so the scope is easier to understand, price, and compare. This helps reduce confusion between drawings, trade quotes, and tender documents.
We support builders, contractors, and subcontractors during the tender stage. Our tender estimating service helps you prepare pricing documents, trade breakdowns, BOQs, quantity takeoffs, and marked-up drawings before submission. This gives you a clearer view of the project cost and helps you submit a more organised tender.
We provide residential estimating services for new homes, renovations, extensions, townhouses, duplexes, apartments, and multi-unit developments. Our residential estimates can include material quantities, labour allowances, trade costs, cost plans, BOQs, and marked-up drawings. This helps homeowners, owner-builders, builders, and developers understand the cost before work starts.
We prepare commercial estimates for offices, retail spaces, restaurants, medical clinics, childcare centres, schools, warehouses, fit-outs, and mixed-use projects. Our commercial estimating work can include architectural, structural, MEP, civil, and trade-specific scopes. This helps contractors and project teams review the budget, compare quotes, and prepare tender submissions.
We provide civil and sitework estimating for excavation, earthworks, drainage, concrete, pavements, kerbs, retaining walls, landscaping, and external works. These estimates help builders, civil contractors, developers, and subcontractors understand site costs and prepare more accurate project pricing.
We also prepare trade-specific estimates for subcontractors and specialist contractors. This can include concrete, masonry, structural steel, carpentry, roofing, flooring, painting, plastering, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, landscaping, and other trade packages. A trade-specific estimate helps you price your scope clearly and respond to builders or head contractors with more confidence.
Who We Help
AS Estimation & Consultants supports builders, contractors, subcontractors, developers, architects, suppliers, manufacturers, and owner-builders across Australia. We prepare construction cost estimates, quantity takeoffs, material takeoffs, BOQs, and tender estimates that help you plan, price, and compare work with more control.
Builders use our estimating services to price new homes, renovations, extensions, townhouses, commercial builds, and fit-out projects. We help you review drawings, measure quantities, prepare cost breakdowns, and check the project scope before you send a quote or tender. This gives you a clearer view of labour, materials, trades, preliminaries, and project costs.
Contractors come to us when they need support with tender pricing, cost planning, procurement, and project budgeting. We prepare detailed estimates from architectural drawings, structural drawings, MEP plans, civil drawings, schedules, and specifications. This helps you reduce missed scope, compare trade prices, and submit cleaner tender documents.
Developers need cost clarity before committing to land, design, finance, or construction. We help with early budget estimates, feasibility cost plans, preliminary estimates, and detailed construction estimates for residential, commercial, industrial, and mixed-use projects. This helps you understand whether the project numbers make sense before moving forward.
Architects and designers need cost feedback during the design stage. We help you check whether a design fits the client's budget before the project moves too far ahead. Our estimates can support concept design, design development, value management, and client budget discussions.
Suppliers use quantity takeoffs to prepare clear material quotes. We measure items from drawings and schedules so you can price materials, compare supply quantities, and support builders, contractors, and subcontractors during the quoting stage.
Owner-builders and homeowners often need help understanding the real cost of a project. We prepare estimates for new homes, renovations, extensions, additions, and small construction works. This helps you check builder quotes, plan your budget, review material costs, and avoid going into the project with rough numbers only.
The area of expertise for AS Estimation and Consultants is offering subcontractors accurate and trustworthy estimation services. Our skilled team uses state-of-the-art technologies and techniques to provide customized estimates that are in line with each project's specific scope and requirements. Contractors that put their trust in us are able to confidently bid using precise estimates, which guarantees project wins and smooth project completion.
Our cost estimates prioritize accuracy and dependability, whether you work in the public, residential, or commercial building sectors. Our experience and understanding of the unique dynamics of each industry enable you to make well-informed decisions throughout the bidding process. Join us to improve your competitiveness and maximize efficiency in your construction projects. Our top priority is your success, and we are here to help you every step of the way.
When it comes to supplying contractors and subcontractors with materials, manufacturers are essential. We assist manufacturers in figuring out how much material is required for a given project. Which offers estimates and insightful information about the quantity of material needed for a particular project, so the GC can decide how to move forward with the bidding process and project execution, which ultimately helps manufacturers plan, budget, and deliver efficiently.
What You Get With Our Estimate
It should show what has been measured, what has been allowed for, and what still needs to be checked before you quote, tender, or build. At AS Estimation & Consultants, we prepare estimating documents that help you understand the full project scope. This can include construction cost estimates, quantity takeoffs, material takeoffs, BOQs, marked-up drawings, Excel files, PDF reports, cost plans, and trade-by-trade breakdowns.
Builders use our estimating services to price new homes, renovations, extensions, townhouses, commercial builds, and fit-out projects. We help you review drawings, measure quantities, prepare cost breakdowns, and check the project scope before you send a quote or tender. This gives you a clearer view of labour, materials, trades, preliminaries, and project costs.
We measure the quantities shown in your drawings and project documents. This can include items from architectural drawings, structural drawings, MEP plans, civil drawings, schedules, specifications, and scope notes. We can measure concrete, steel, masonry, roofing, flooring, painting, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, landscaping, and other trade items.
A material takeoff helps you understand what materials are needed before you order, quote, or compare supplier prices. Depending on the project, this can include concrete, reinforcement, timber, plasterboard, tiles, paint, roofing sheets, pipework, cabling, fixtures, fittings, finishes, and other construction materials. This helps reduce waste, missed items, and unclear supplier pricing.
A BOQ gives you a structured list of measured work items. You can use it for tender pricing, subcontractor comparison, supplier quotes, cost review, and project planning. A clear bill of quantities also makes it easier to check inclusions, exclusions, and scope gaps before the job moves ahead.
Marked-up drawings show what has been measured. This makes it easier to review the estimate and check the takeoff against the drawings. Builders, subcontractors, and project teams can use markups to understand the measured areas, trade items, and scope covered in the estimate.
We can provide your estimate in Excel and PDF format. Excel files help you review, adjust, or update the estimate. PDF reports give you a clean summary that is easier to share with clients, project teams, suppliers, or subcontractors.
Every estimate needs clear notes. We include assumptions and exclusions where needed so you understand what has been allowed for and what may still need confirmation. This helps reduce confusion during tender review, quote comparison, and project planning.
Our estimating documents are prepared to help you move faster during the tender stage. You can use the estimate to prepare pricing, compare trade quotes, check material quantities, review the project budget, and submit a more organised tender response.
How Our Estimating Process Works
At AS Estimation & Consultants, we follow a clear process from the first drawing review to the final estimate report. This helps builders, contractors, subcontractors, developers, architects, suppliers, and owner-builders understand what we need, what we check, and what you receive.
Send us your drawings, specifications, schedules, scope notes, or tender documents. You can share architectural drawings, structural drawings, MEP plans, civil drawings, PDF plans, DWG files, site plans, engineering details, finish schedules, or trade documents. The more detail we receive, the more clearly we can review the project scope.
Our team checks the project documents before giving you a quote. We review the project type, drawing set, number of trades, building size, level of detail, deadline, and required deliverables. This helps us understand whether you need a full construction cost estimate, quantity takeoff, material takeoff, BOQ, tender estimate, marked-up drawings, or trade-specific estimate.
Before we start, we provide a clear quote for the estimating work. The quote is based on the project size, scope, drawing quality, trade requirements, and turnaround time. This means you know the cost before the estimate begins.
Once approved, we measure the required quantities from your drawings and project documents. This can include concrete, steel, masonry, roofing, flooring, painting, carpentry, plastering, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, landscaping, civil works, fixtures, fittings, finishes, and other trade items. The takeoff is prepared so the measured scope is easier to check, price, and compare.
After the takeoff is complete, we prepare the cost estimate in a clear format. Your estimate may include material quantities, labour allowances, plant and equipment, subcontractor items, preliminaries, trade costs, project allowances, assumptions, exclusions, and BOQ items. This helps you review the project cost before tendering, quoting, procurement, or construction.
Before delivery, the estimate is reviewed for clarity and consistency. We check the measured items, cost breakdown, scope notes, marked-up drawings, and report format. This helps reduce confusion and gives you a cleaner estimate to work from.
We send the final estimate in the agreed format. This may include an Excel estimate file, PDF report, bill of quantities, material takeoff, marked-up drawings, trade-by-trade breakdown, or tender-ready estimate. You can use these files to price the job, compare subcontractor quotes, check supplier pricing, review the budget, or prepare your tender submission.
