Google reviewQuestions before
you hire.
Will they know our local rates and suppliers?
Australian project experience can help, but your rates, supplier agreements and margins belong to your business. You provide current pricing information and guidance. We recruit for the construction background you need; your team checks the final estimate.
Can we use this for a one-off tender?
This page covers a dedicated, full-time hire for ongoing work. If you only need a single estimate, a project-based estimating provider may be a better fit. If you are unsure how much ongoing work you have, use the estimator hiring decision guide or talk it through with us before committing.
How should I use the budget guide?
Use the figures to plan your hire. General and civil estimating include a budget for Australian experience; electrical estimating quotes it separately. Specialist work needs a tailored quote. We confirm the final fee before you hire. Compare other roles.
