To win projects, sitework improvement and exterior improvement contractors must provide precise quote estimates. At Sal’s Estimating, our construction cost consultants offer extensive consultation and excavation estimation services for trades such as fences, gates, retaining walls, manufactured bridges, tennis courts, sports surfacing, and playground surfaces.

In actuality, estimates are made for irrigation, planters, vegetated roofs, edging, tree staking, and other site enhancements. Contractors utilize these numbers to inform their bids, purchase supplies, create project budgets, and assess project viability. Each line item’s markup for the contractor is computed, ensuring profit is precisely determined.

Site Redevelopment Include:

• Hardware for Gates and Fences

• Built-Up Bridges

• Plant-Covered Roofing

• Guards and Edging Grates

• Barriers on Roofs

• Marine Turf, Grass, Tree Staking

Superiority We Maintain – Earthwork/Sitework Volume

We utilize cutting-edge software techniques, such as Civil 3D, Cut & Fill, Terramodel, AGTEK 4D, InSite, Planswift, and AutoCAD, to digitally take off material quantities in our sitework estimating services. These quantities are then provided in EXCEL spreadsheets, organized according to MasterFormat or the client’s specified format.

When Calculating Earthwork Volumes, We Consider:

• Clearing

• Demolition

• Digging and Backfilling

• Pre-Load

• Construction Fill

• Phasing & Staging

• Sub-Grades

• Embankment

Bid Preparation

A comprehensive review of bid materials is the first step in the bid preparation process, followed by defining the job scope and digital takeoff.

Bid Pricing

We use RSMeans and our location-based built database to price each line item for material, labor, and equipment.

Finalized Bidding Proposals

Our detailed bid proposals include bid assessments, comments, justifications, omissions, amendments, and other essential information for your advantage. We provide marked-up sitework plans in EXCEL.
