Construction Estimating Software — Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about our building and construction pricing software
How much does construction estimating software cost?
EasyEstimate has a free tier with no credit card required — you can create unlimited estimates and access all features including live material prices and calculators. The Professional plan is £39.99/month and adds the ability to download, print and send your estimates to clients. There are no long-term contracts; cancel anytime.
Is there free construction estimating software in the UK?
Yes — EasyEstimate's free tier gives UK builders full access to create estimates with live material prices, labour calculators and pre-built templates. No credit card or commitment required. You only need to upgrade (£39.99/month) when you want to download or send professional estimates to clients.
What is the best construction estimating software for small builders in the UK?
EasyEstimate is designed specifically for small to medium UK builders and trades. Unlike enterprise software (Procore, Buildxact) that costs hundreds of pounds per month, EasyEstimate starts free and costs £39.99/month for the full professional version. It's cloud-based, requires no installation, and most users are up and running within 30 minutes.
Does the software work for carpentry, electrical and specialist trades?
Yes. EasyEstimate includes trade-specific material price libraries and calculators for carpenters, electricians, plumbers, plasterers, groundworkers and roofers, as well as general builders. You can also build your own custom calculators for any specialist trade pricing.
Does it work on a Mac, phone or tablet?
Yes — EasyEstimate is entirely cloud-based and works in any web browser on Mac, PC, iPhone, Android phone or tablet. Many builders use it on their phone to price jobs on site and send estimates before leaving the property.
How is EasyEstimate different from a spreadsheet?
Spreadsheets require you to manually find and update material prices, build your own calculators, and format documents yourself. EasyEstimate gives you live UK merchant prices updated automatically, built-in labour calculators, pre-built templates for common jobs, professional branded output, and merchant price comparison — all in one place. Most users save 50–70% of the time they previously spent estimating.

Structured builders quote templates ensure you don’t miss items. Work through each section systematically to capture all costs and avoid pricing errors that eat into your margins.

Provide Options Where Appropriate
Include optional extras in your builders quote template:
