Civil & Infrastructure Estimating
Provincial and municipal spec roadwork in tonnes and square metres, granular base, curb and gutter, concrete storm pipe, PVC and ductile iron watermains, manholes and bridge takeoffs.
Technical Overview
Municipal and heavy civil tenders need unit-price accuracy against provincial transportation specifications (such as OPSS in Ontario) and municipal standards: asphalt tonnage by lift, Granular A and B, manhole inverts, watermain restraints and traffic control. We take off in metric to match Canadian tender forms.
Governing Canadian Codes & Standards:
Provincial transportation specifications (e.g. OPSS / MTO) Municipal engineering standards CSA A257 concrete pipe AWWA C900 PVC pipe

Civil & Infrastructure Estimating FAQ
Clear answers about our Canadian estimation deliverables, turnaround, software and fees.
How much do civil & infrastructure estimating cost in Canada? ▼
Single-scope civil & infrastructure takeoffs start from CA$75 CAD. Most commercial bid packages are quoted as guaranteed flat fees based on drawing sheet count and scope complexity with zero hidden add-ons.
What deliverables are included with a Civil & Infrastructure estimate? ▼
Every package includes an unlocked, fully editable Microsoft Excel Bill of Quantities (BOQ) with all formula links intact, colour-coded marked-up PDF drawing layers, an unpriced vendor Bill of Materials (BOM) for supply house pricing, and a verified inclusions and exclusions sheet.
What software platforms and workflows do your civil & infrastructure estimators use? ▼
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.
How are Canadian codes and standards addressed in Civil & Infrastructure? ▼
We cross-reference every line item against Canadian standards including Provincial transportation specifications (e.g. OPSS / MTO), Municipal engineering standards, CSA A257 concrete pipe, AWWA C900 PVC pipe, calibrating labour productivity and freight allowances to your project province and Forward Sortation Area (FSA).
Are my bid figures and drawings kept confidential? ▼
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.
