Quality Budget Estimate
Qualify client budgets quickly and accurately with our Quality Budget Estimate (QBE). For a flat fee, get a realistic budget range with fast turnaround, backed by real project data. This essential first step helps you make confident decisions and build a more profitable pipeline.
Full Quantity Estimate
The Full Quantity Estimate (FQE), is a detailed analysis that delves deep into every aspect of a construction project, providing builders with a comprehensive breakdown of material quantities, labour costs, timber list and PC/PS items. This meticulous evaluation ensures accurate budgeting and precise planning throughout the construction process, ultimately leading to successful project outcomes.
FQE Add-Ons
Elevate your FQE with powerful add-ons. From procurement support that streamlines subcontractor pricing, to 3D models that bring your project to life, to cost centre exports that upload directly to your software so your job is ready to run. These services transform your estimate into a complete project management solution.
Pre-Construction Support
Download our free Pre-Construction Sales System with proven templates that guide clients from enquiry to signed contract. Handle every interaction with confidence, clarity, and a streamlined approach that reduces stress and wins more work.
Subcontractor or Trade Supply Take-Offs
Our Subcontractor estimate (SUB) is an itemised trade scope and take off specific to your trade e.g. electrical, plaster, concrete. Our Trade Supply Take-off, (TST) is an itemised take off per trade category. Used by builders seeking supplier or trade pricing.

FAQs
Perth Estimating FAQ’s
Got questions? We’ve got answers. Here’s everything you need to know about working with us.
What Is The Process For Getting A Construction Estimate In Perth?
What is the FQE Turnaround Time?
Our FQEs typically take between 10-14 days to deliver. Once you have submitted the request, we assess the difficulty and assign you a due date based on our current workload. Typically, our busiest periods are in the lead up to Christmas and just before school holidays.
How Much Does It Cost?
Minimum Charge = $1500 + GST
0.35% of total contract price up to $1.5 million then 0.1% for any residual amount over $1.5 million.
What If I Don’t Have Time For A Checklist?
We don’t recommend this for new clients; however we can proceed with the FQE using our standard industry pricing based on our experience. You will get this first draft back and can still do revisions.
Do You Provide Fee Proposals?
The short answer is no. If you have your own method of qualifying your budget, you can base the fees on the high end of that price, however we don’t make guarantees that we will match this. We suggest doing a QBE which provides a budget range, then base your FQE charges on the high end and add your time to the costs. Alternatively, develop a sales approach where you can request a flat fee for estimating and consulting with them and tell your client you use professional services.
How Much Do Revisions Cost?
Revisions are included in the cost of our FQEs. There are some exceptions like changes to plans and scope but we do our best to give you every opportunity to refine this until it is contract ready.
