for Trusted Construction Takeoff & Estimating Services

At Vertical Estimating, we believe that accuracy and partnership are the hallmarks of a great estimating experience in the construction industry. At Vertical Estimating, we are not simply another estimating company - we are a team of experts committed to accuracy and practicality in our work. We specialize in two primary services: construction takeoff services and construction estimating services. Our takeoff process enables a breakdown, item-by-item, listing of all materials required for a construction project, manually retrieved from construction plans with great detail to avoid any construction cost overruns. Our estimating services are based on that strength and utilize the quantities to provide accurate estimates based on current labor costs and regional considerations. Whether it's a residential renovation or a major commercial project, our estimates are transparent and provided based on your specifications. We believe trust results from being transparent. That’s why all the numbers we quote are human-verified and traceable and come from experience, not algorithms. You get direct access to our people, a clear communication style, and assistance along the way. “At Vertical Estimating, we don’t make compromises. We help you build smarter, bid stronger, and finish stronger without having to make assumptions with the help of AI.”We follow the utmost care and compliance of the American Estimators Organization and the American Association of Cost Engineers (AACE).

Our proficiency ensures we use advanced tools and software, i.e. Planswift, Bluebeam, Trimble, RS Means, Cost Works, Xactimate, FastPIPE, FastDUCT, and Quest Estimating. For zip-code-based pricing, we use RS Means, Craftsmen, and our developed databases to provide the most accurate and localized cost estimates.
