Construction Estimating Services — Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our professional building estimating service

How much does a professional construction estimating service cost?

Prices vary by project type: loft conversions from £140, garage conversions from £135, new builds and large extensions from £195. All costs are confirmed within 24 hours of receiving your plans — no hidden fees or surprises.

Do you provide building estimating services near me? Do you cover the whole UK?

Yes — our building estimating services cover the whole of the UK. We work entirely from your architectural drawings sent by email, so location is no barrier. We estimate projects from Cornwall to Scotland for builders, contractors and architects nationwide. Simply email your plans to [email protected] and we'll get started.

How quickly can I get a construction estimate?

Standard turnaround is 3–5 working days from receiving your plans. An express service is available for urgent tenders. Once you send your drawings, we confirm the exact cost and turnaround time within 24 hours before any work begins.

What do I need to send to get a building estimate?

Email your architectural drawings (PDF preferred) along with any specifications or project information to [email protected]. We accept most common drawing formats. The more detail you provide, the more accurate the estimate — but we can work from basic plans too.

What is included in a professional construction estimate?
