Empowering Canadian Contractors with Audit-Ready Bids
Professional Estimating LLC provides professional construction cost estimating, material takeoffs, and bid preparation services to General Contractors, Subcontractors, Developers, and Architects across all ten Canadian provinces and three territories.
Our Story & Experience
Professional Estimating has delivered over 5,400+ projects throughout North America. Our Canadian operations desk specializes in navigating the unique technical, climatic, and regulatory landscape of Canadian construction—from the National Building Code (NBC) and the Canadian Electrical Code (CSA C22.1) to provincial prompt payment legislation and CCQ collective bargaining requirements in Quebec.
Serving contractors and builders across North America.
Commercial, residential, civil, and industrial takeoffs.
Dual-estimator quality control with urgent rush options.
Professional Credentials & Practice
Estimates are prepared to Canadian quantity-surveying practice, with quantities organised by CSI MasterFormat and checked by a second estimator before delivery. Takeoffs are prepared with reference to the Canadian Electrical Code (CSA C22.1), the National Building Code, and applicable provincial building codes (such as the OBC in Ontario and the CCQ in Quebec).
Quantities organised by MasterFormat divisions, with detailed line-item descriptions and colour-coded drawing markups. Every takeoff undergoes a second-estimator audit before delivery.
Dual-Estimator QA Review Protocol
Unlike freelance estimators who work in isolation, every estimate produced by Professional Estimating undergoes our rigorous Dual-Estimator QA Protocol:
- Primary Takeoff Estimator: Conducts the digital drawing takeoff using industry-standard digital estimating platforms, extracting raw material counts, linear measurements, and surface areas.
- Senior Review Estimator: Independently audits the takeoffs against the project specifications, architectural-to-structural cross-checks, addenda revisions, and local labour productivity factors.
- Final Delivery Package: Delivered in unlocked Microsoft Excel workbooks and colour-coded PDF markups, ready for immediate vendor pricing and bid submission.
Estimating Software & Universal Formats
Our estimators prepare takeoffs with industry-standard Canadian estimating and takeoff software. Deliverables are unlocked Microsoft Excel workbooks and colour-coded marked-up PDFs, so you do not need a software licence to review them.
Strict Plan Confidentiality & Independence
Your project is safe with us. We never share your drawings, pricing, or bid figures with any other contractor. An NDA is available on request — just ask and we will sign one before you share your plans. We operate as an independent estimating consultant and do not participate in construction tenders as a contractor, eliminating any conflict of interest.
