Outbid The Competition, Leverage Our Expert Estimates
Outbid The Competition, Leverage Our Expert Estimates
Accurate cost planning is the backbone of every successful construction project. Without clear
numbers, even well-designed projects can face delays, disputes, and financial stress. AS
Estimation & Consultants provides a professional Construction Cost Estimating Service
that gives you complete cost clarity before construction begins.
Based in Perth, Western Australia, we support residential, commercial, and industrial projects
through accurate, trade-level estimating delivered online across Australia. Our goal is simple: to
help you understand real construction costs early so you can plan, negotiate, and build with
confidence.
Most construction cost issues don’t arise during construction — they originate during planning. When estimates are rushed, incomplete, or based on assumptions, projects become vulnerable to budget overruns and scope disputes.
A professional Cost Estimating Service provides a realistic financial framework for your project. It allows you to test feasibility, align design decisions with your budget, and understand where money will be spent across the build.
In Perth’s construction market, where labour rates, material costs, and compliance requirements continue to evolve, accurate estimating is essential for managing risk and protecting your investment.
We provide a complete overview of your project’s costs so you can clearly see how the budget is distributed across trades, materials, and construction stages. This visibility allows for informed planning and controlled decision-making.
Every estimate is built from carefully measured quantities taken directly from your drawings and specifications. This ensures that costs are based on actual scope rather than assumptions or averages.
Costs are organised by individual trades, making the estimate practical for builders, developers, lenders, and project managers. This structure also supports tendering, comparisons, and value-engineering discussions.
We clearly explain what is included, excluded, and assumed within each estimate. This transparency reduces misunderstandings and helps manage expectations from the start of the project.
Our Residential Estimating Service supports new homes, renovations, extensions, duplexes,
townhouses, and multi-unit residential developments. We help homeowners and builders
understand realistic construction costs early, ensuring budgets align with design intent and site
conditions.
Residential estimates are prepared with consideration for Perth-specific construction practices,
materials, and compliance requirements.
Our Commercial Estimating Service is designed for offices, retail developments, hospitality
projects, medical facilities, educational buildings, and mixed-use developments. Commercial
projects require careful coordination across multiple systems and trades.
We provide structured cost estimates that support feasibility studies, budgeting, and tender
pricing, allowing commercial clients to manage financial risk effectively.
Our Industrial Estimating Service covers warehouses, factories, workshops, and large-scale
industrial facilities. These projects involve specialised systems, higher capital exposure, and
operational considerations.
We focus on accurate scope definition and realistic pricing to support informed investment and
long-term planning.

A reliable estimate is the result of a structured and disciplined process. At AS Estimation & Consultants, our cost estimating process is designed to eliminate assumptions, clarify scope, and deliver figures that reflect real construction conditions in Perth and across Western Australia.
We begin by reviewing your drawings, specifications, and available documentation to fully understand the project scope and identify any gaps.

Measured quantities are priced using current Perth and Western Australian market rates that reflect real construction conditions.
Each estimate undergoes an internal review to ensure consistency, accuracy, and clarity.

Choosing the right estimating partner has a direct impact on project success. Our approach is built around clarity, independence, and real-world construction understanding.
We understand the realities of building in Perth and across Western Australia. From labour availability to material pricing and local construction practices, our estimates reflect what projects actually cost to build in this market.
This local knowledge allows us to provide figures that are realistic, achievable, and relevant.
We place strong emphasis on clearly defining project scope before building the estimate. By carefully reviewing drawings, specifications, and available documentation, we ensure that all measurable elements are accounted for and clearly understood.
Clear scope definition early leads to more accurate pricing, fewer variations, and smoother project execution.
We believe clarity builds trust. That’s why we clearly explain assumptions, exclusions, and cost drivers in every estimate. Rather than hiding uncertainty, we highlight it so risks can be managed properly from the beginning.
We believe clarity builds trust through absolute transparency.
Our estimates are designed to work in actual construction environments. We focus on practicality, buildability, and realistic pricing rather than overly optimistic or theoretical numbers.
We focus on practicality and real-world application over theoretical optimism.
Accurate estimating requires the right tools and professional standards. We combine industry-proven systems with structured quality controls to ensure reliability.
Knowing when to engage a professional estimator can significantly reduce financial risk and uncertainty. A construction cost estimating service is most valuable at key decision points, where clarity and accuracy directly influence project outcomes.
Early estimating allows you to test project feasibility before committing to designs, approvals, or major decisions. This helps ensure expectations are aligned with realistic budget limits from the outset.
An independent estimate provides a clear benchmark that supports confident contract negotiations and reduces the likelihood of variations and disputes later in the project.
Professional estimating supports accurate and competitive tender submissions by ensuring pricing reflects true construction costs rather than assumptions or underestimation.
An independent estimate allows you to assess whether contractor pricing is reasonable, inflated, or unrealistically low, helping you make informed decisions with confidence.
Early identification of major cost drivers allows risks to be managed proactively, reducing the chance of cost overruns during construction.
